[Xerte] Re: YouTube start time

[Julian Tenney]

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,

Subject: [Xerte] YouTube start time

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
