Hi Folks,
One of my members pointed out the using minutes and seconds in a YT URL no longer works, he thinks as of a couple months ago. In my testing, he is correct, the video just starts at the beginning. I’ll embed both URL’s here, and let’s see if it’s just my site. - Nope - behaves the same here - I am not a ruby coder, but I looked at the ruby code for youtube_onebox_spec.rb and it looks like the M:S format, along with start and end are accommodated, but neither arguments work on my site.
The M:S format is much easier for folks on mobile to use as the YT app does not provide a way to select start time, the user has to append the ?t= string to the URL when they share it.
Thanks for any assistance. OK, let’s see how these URL’s work here.
Oh, we are at 3.1.0beta4 (f462347e12) and I see 3.1.0beta5 just dropped. I schedule maintenance windows on our site, so won’t be able to run that in right away to see if the update helps this issue.
