How to Play YouTube Video from Desired Point in Timeline by Giving Video URL

How to recommend something from inside of YouTube video to anybody? Suppose you want to recommend a YouTube video to a friend. You have to give him URL of video. You do not want him to see the whole video and you want to save his time and point to the specified point in that YouTube video which you want him to start watching from so that it starts playing from the time you specify for it. There is a simple way to recommend a YouTube video to watch from predefined point in timeline which you desire.

Embed Youtube Videos with a specific timeline.

We take an example of a video. Consider the following URL.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fe751kMBwms

Now all you have to do is to add the predefined time feature in the URL. Add following in the URL.

&feature=player_embedded#t=desired time in seconds

So that it becomes:

&feature=player_embedded#t=200

200 here is 200 seconds so that video will start playing where 200 seconds have been passed in the timeline.

Above whole URL with the specified time will become like following:

Seconds

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fe751kMBwms&feature=player_embedded#t=200

By this method you can save your friend’s time and recommend something in YouTube video which you want him to watch and not the whole video.
