Hello To The Powers That Be
I've tried twice now to have a YouTube video in a link, start at the time that I've selected (not at the very beginning). I don't want someone to have to watch a long video just to get to the part at the end that I want to show. I know that I have the correct YouTube link address (I've done this before) to start at the time that I've selected, but when I post it in a thread here, the video wants to start at the beginning & not at the start time that I had selected. What am I doing wrong?

Hey there,

Can you provide us with a screenshot of the YouTube code that you are attempting to post.
And a link to a post/thread where you attempted to make it start at a certain point.
I just wan to see if It will run on my end.

Thank you.

Richard

Hello Administrator
I can't post a link to the thread because it was in 1 that I started (tried twice) & saw that it didn't work like I wanted it to, so I edited the title to "Please Delete" & the moderator (I assume) deleted it for me.

This is the address that I copied from YouTube with a start time of 7m50s. If you copy & paste that address, it will take you to the video on YouTube & start at the selected time of 7m50s like it should. But copy & paste the address as a link on this forum & it doesn't work properly. It must be something wrong on this site.

I see now that it starts at "7s" instead of "7m50s" when I click on play.

Hello Administrator
I see that you want me to work for it, none of that simple copy & paste stuff. You want me to do a little math.

Let's see if it works for me.

Ya, conversion to seconds makes it work. Time to keep a calculator handy. :nerd:

I figured there was too much slope to the ground for your part of the country.
