Have you ever been to a website and they have the YouTube video start at a specific time in the video timeline?
If you’re wondering how to do it, here are two different ways to go about it.

YouTube

Although the YouTube Time website seems a little unnecessary, it is nice for previewing your custom start time videos.

Awesome!

Very powerful tips, especially useful are setting start and end times – previously i had to download video, slit and then upload 😉
