When you do that thing with the start param, what happens when the movie is reset? It resets to 0 or it resets to the start time place?

Dunno. Need to look up the API docs on the matter and see if it's something you can do via the chromeless player which we are embedding,

Hi all

Is there a way to use the Youtube "start" parameter in the Xerte Youtube page type?

You can add ?start=n (where n is a number in seconds) to the end of a video URL to direct the user to a specific part of a video.

However, adding this to the Xerte youtube page type using the new YT embed code doesn't seem to work:

<iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ndM9njm9Tnc?start=20" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Even though the embed does work on a standard HTML page.

Any ideas?

Cheers, Adam
