How to Edit Start and End Time for YouTube Videos
I am attempting to edit the code so that I can include both a beginning and end point to a youtube video I want to embed in my RISE course. I've attempted to make the changes, but so far I've only been able to adjust the start time, but not the end time.

Hi Raina!
Adding a start and end time to a YouTube embed code is pretty simple! Check out this 1-minute demo I recorded for you.
Best of luck, and let me know if you need any help with that!
Hi Alyssa...I tried doing what the video suggested.....https://www.youtube.com/embed/qi9nVpc9gq4?start=21&end=87
It doesn't work for me???
I then tried what Erin suggested....https://www.youtube.com/embed/qi9nVpc9gq4?start=21&end=87 and that doesn't seem to work for me. Any other suggestions? Thanks,
What block type are you using?
I just create a Multimedia / Embed block, and copied and pasted https://www.youtube.com/embed/gpyB54lSpYg?start=10&end=30 and it works.
This was SO helpful, thank you for making that video Alyssa.
I'm glad you found just what you needed, Stacey! 🌟
Very helpful. Just to clarify that the ending must be in seconds so if the video should stop at 1:20 put &end=80.
Thank you for this information! I'm having trouble with my end times working-- do you have any suggestions? I've tried a few different videos and none of them seem to be working for me. I'm not sure if it's a glitch with YouTube specifically or something else is in the HTML code or what the issue is -- the start is working fine, but they just aren't ending where I've indicated. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you! (I'm also trying to use the same clips in a PowerPoint version of the training and it isn't working there either which is why I think it has something to do with YouTube or elsewhere in the code).
Hi Jean! Sorry to hear you're having trouble with the embed code.
Could you please share the code you're trying to use?Hi Renz! Thanks for the assist! This is the code I am attempting to embed: <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/xpeNuHBL6-4?start=1350&end=1490" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
The video URL is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpeNuHBL6-4&t=1382sAny direction or advice is much appreciated! :-)
I'm also hopeful there is a fix soon? I am having the same issue.
Hi, I'm also experiencing this issue - is there any update?
Hi,
This works for me (video is about cute puppies):

Hi Gil! Would you mind sharing the link to the YouTube video you want to embed, as well as the start and stop time? We'll see if we can help!
I am trying this as well and it isn't working. Is there an update to this?
Hi Colleen!
Sorry to hear you've run into this setback!
To clarify, are you encountering the bug my teammate Renz mentioned earlier in the discussion? Or are you experiencing other unexpected behavior when embedding a URL into your Rise course?
It would be helpful to see the video link you are trying to embed. Would you be comfortable sharing that here in the discussion or privately through a support case?
I have added the code as described to stop the video at a specific time, but it is not working. Here is the embed code for the video without any changes: <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8gSmeDUSpR0?si=GGhGT0F_ugiQTeX5" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Even after I add the code as described, the video still ends at the 4:49 mark.
Hi Colleen!
Thanks for following up!
Working with the URL you shared, I was able to set the start parameter to 10 seconds, and the end parameter to 15 seconds, successfully (start=10&end=15).
- Here's a quick screen recording sharing the steps!
The bug being discussed in this thread is still present (the '&' symbol showing as '&' after pasting into Rise 360), however, it did not affect the functionality of the link. I'll include your voice in the bug report and will provide updates as soon as a fix is in place.
Please let me know if you have any more questions!
Thank you so much! That worked!
Can you also help with another issue? I researched and found that the information provided to stop the "suggested videos" from popping up at the end of a YouTube video is not currently working.
Can you provide the code for this?
Thank you again,
