Some time back, there was a suggestion in Thread 198871 on introducing time tags when linking to youtube files.
It was met with a vague answer "There seems to be no reason why it can't be done."

So is it in the list?

This was an interesting one!

So, you can paste links, as before, but now the parser is a little more flexible.

//Remove spaces for this to work

Paste in a video with no start time
[you tube]dQw4w9WgXcQ[/you tube]


Or with a start time - add a slash then specify start time in seconds :

[you tube]dQw4w9WgXcQ/30[/you tube]


// And with a title :

[you tube RickRolling Changed My Life]dQw4w9WgXcQ/30[/you tube]


// Or easier still, just paste in the URL, and RHP can do the work, if it is as follows :

https://www.you tube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ&t=10s


you tube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ&t=20s


www.you tube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ&t=30s


https://you tube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ&t=30s


// And the URL shortened version :

you tu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ&t=30s


That should do it 🙂


edit : Added support for shorts URL too.
