link from outside to a mkv chapter

It is possible to open an mkv with VLC going to a given chapter from an external link?
I mean something like a bookmark in html (http://your-path/your-file.php#your-bookmark) or a page in a pdf (file://your-path/your-pdf#pag=34).
It could be, I don't know, something like "file://your-path/your.mkv.mkv#chapter-name"...
Or, at least, a link to a given time (of a mkv)...
Thank you!

Nobody can answer?
Maybe it could be possible not linking to a bookmark, but at least to a given (video time, f.e. 00:03:04) time?

I noticed that this code works, from a terminal (in Linuxx)

Code: Select all

vlc file:///my-path/my-video.mp4 --start-time=90
But I should I do to open that video (at that given point) from a browser?
That code doesn't work :( .
