When posting a link to videos where I want to go directly to the relevant segment, I like to right-click on the YT video and choose the option "Copy Video URL at the Current Time". This creates a link to the video which is supposed to start playing at the time that's selected. I use this to skip intros, and non-relevant parts. Much more convenient than telling people in my post "please advance the video to 3:27, that's where the interesting part begins".
QUESTION: Is there a way to preserve that point in the video where I want it to start playing? Every time I try to do that on this message board, the video starts playing right at the beginning instead of the time I selected in my link. I tried making the YT link into a URL, but the videos still start playing from the beginning. Help!
The key is the URL ends with "&t=91s" - that's starting at 91 seconds.
Example
When in YouTube, click the Share button and use the checkbox for "Start At ..." to get the URL for the start time you selected.
I hope this helps!
