How To Make A Youtube Video Start At Certain Time

YouTube is indeed amazing! The other mean solar day, I had a YouTube video of over one hour duration. I wanted to post information technology on Facebook — but the trouble was that the portion of video that was of involvement to my viewers started simply afterward 25 minutes and 4 seconds. I wanted to post the video on Facebook in such a way so that information technology starts playing at this specific time. I did non want my Facebook viewers to watch the first 25 minutes of irrelevant video or to make them frontward it to a given time. Well, of course, if yous own the video, you can always split the video with any of the available video editing software. But what if video is not your property?

I knew that there must be some option in YouTube to create a link to a specific time in a given video. And such an option indeed exists! It reminded me of the time when we were able to share the link of a Facebook post but there was no option to have a link of specific comment on a specific post. Subsequently, Facebook provided this feature.

Link to a Specific Fourth dimension in a YouTube Video

Get to YouTube and copy the URL of the video that you want to utilise
Now add &t=@@m**s at the end of the URL. Here @@ correspond the two digit offset infinitesimal and ** represent the two digit showtime seconds. Y'all should change the timing as required. So, if you want to start the video at 25 minutes and 04 seconds, yous would add &t=25m04due south at the terminate of the URL
Copy the modified URL and paste it back in the browser or wherever you needs it.

Link to a Specific Time in a Youtu.be Video

At that place is not much difference between a YouTube and Youtu.be URL. But if the video link y'all have is that of Youtu.be — the you need to do a slight modify in the above mentioned method. In Youtu.be link, just replace & with ?.

So, instead of &t=25m04s y'all should append ?t=25m04s at the finish of the Youtu.be URL.

Simple! isn't it? Now let's see a demo of this method. There is an interview of mine on YouTube. First 56 seconds in this video are used up in an intro sequence. The existent interview begins at the 57th second. So, if I wanted to create a link exactly to the 57th 2nd, it would exist like:

YOUTUBE URL: https:// www. youtube. com/sentinel?v=LIgRmdJMgl4&t=00m57s

YOUTU.BE URL: https:// youtu. exist /LIgRmdJMgl4?t=00m57s

Hither is the video I am talking near. Play the video and y'all will run across that information technology will begin playing at 57 seconds.

Inbuilt Option in YouTube: Re-create Video URL at Current Fourth dimension

As you might have expected, YouTube too provides an inbuilt facility. Information technology allows you to copy the video URL at a particular time.

Become to YouTube video
Play the video and take information technology to the exact fourth dimension where from you want to copy the link
Interruption the video
Right click on the video and select the Copy video URL at current time option (as shown in the image given below)
Link has been copied to the memory of your computer. Paste it anywhere you want.
