Cool YouTube Tip : Seek

Youtube TIP: You can link and seek to a specific point in a video using #t=2m13s at the end of a URL.

The t=2m13s means

t = time

m = minutes

s = seconds

Example

As shown in the video below you can specify a particular part of a video. For example, I really like the verse in this song and it starts during the first minute at the 44 second mark.

Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcqSnENcunQ#t=0m44 –> This says, open this video at zero minutes at the 44 second mark

 

To enable this for embedding videos use the start parameter on the querystring which is specified in “seconds”

e.g.:

http://www.youtube.com/v/CcqSnENcunQ&fs=1&start=44 specifies the video to start at 44 seconds.

http://www.youtube.com/v/CcqSnENcunQ&fs=1&start=75 specifies the video to start at 75 seconds.
