How To Set Start and End Time In YouTube Videos Embed Codes

Whenever you want to embed YouTube videos in your blog posts, you can specify the start and end time, thereby making it easy for viewers to focus on a particular scene that begins from ‘xx: xx’ seconds and ends in ‘yy: yy’ seconds.

All you have to do, is to add ?start=xx&end=yy&version=3 at the end of the Youtube video src (URL)

E.g

If original embed code is this :

<iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/kzjRiSPRdLM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

and I want it to start playing from 1min45secs and end in 2mins 01secs, I will use the embed code below:

<iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/kzjRiSPRdLM?start=105&end=121&version=3" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Demo below:

NB : The start and end time must be specified in seconds.

Hence,

1min 45secs = 105secs

2mins 01secs = 121secs.
