When you are trying to embed a YouTube video, you can add a “start†pointer to define the number of seconds at which the video should start, as SEM blog explains. Here’s a sample code:
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/11Fl9ZVJ7B8&hl=en&fs=1&start=15"></par am><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/11Fl9ZVJ7B8&hl=en&fs=1&start=15" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
This parameter will only work if you are trying to embed the video in your blog, but at this moment it doesn’t work for direct linking.
