YT Links

[Chris Parks]

I posted a link from YT which behaves a little strange. It should start the video at 11:02 but it does not and I have noticed the same thing before with other videos. I pasted the exact same link into a browser and it goes straight to 11:02 with no problems. Has anyone also noticed the same thing. Link below

OK that's strange, the first link acts like it should but if the video is inserted via the video insert icon it doesn't work.

I am sure there's some behind-the-scenes interpretation of links and URLs to YT that is coming to play here - may be something UBeaut or @Stephen_Computer_guru might need to comment on. For me, both the link and the embedded video played from part-way through, but it may have been because I played them in that order and the embedded vid was showing where I left off...

I should have added It used to work in previous times as intended.


I have tried the original links from a different computer and like Poundy it works ok so it must have been something to do with the computer I was on though as I mentioned this is not the first time it has happened. I will do some more experimenting and see what happens.

Hi Chris,
It played from the start the first time for me but not the 2nd

The link YouTube started from 11:02 for me, first time.

I think it might be browser related but I cleared the browsing and cache data and it still does it on the computer I posted it from. I tried another browser and it picks up both links at the 11:00 minute mark, that's life and I won't lose sleep over it.
