Help with embedding links to youtube

Mar 10, 2014

Hi all,

I am working on a project in which I need to embed web parts that link to videos on youtube. I've been able to do that, but was wondering if there was a way to make a video start and/or stop at a specific point in the video if I don't want to show the whole video. Also, at the beginning of some of the videos that are ads. Is there a way to bypass or remove the ads as well?

Any guidance at all would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Jeanne

Hi Jeanne,

And just to add on to the info Michael sent, I've attached a story where I used the parameters to control the video. This is what the entire "phrase" looks like:

www.youtube.com/embed/MxwH9RbQzJ0?autoplay=1&start=10&end=30

The embedded video starts up automatically (autoplay=1)

Starts at 10 seconds (&start=10)

Stops at 30 seconds (&end=30)

Once you download the story, you'll have to publish it to see it "at work"...it doesn't work in Preview.

I LOVE this video, so it was another opportunity to share it . The video is here.

Please shout out with any questions.
