Jarvis Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) I watch a lot of training videos on Youtube. Whenever a topic interests me I add the URL into a simple two field database that contains a DESCRIPTION FIELD and a URL FIELD. The database lives on Dropbox so I can find it wherever I am. Some of the videos last for 20-30 minutes but I am only interested in small sections that last for one minute. I would like to find a way to find those particular sections without scrubbing through the video. Is there a way to script opening the video and then go directly to that sequence of the video? For example: the part of the video I want to watch lives at 3:38/19:58. Could I add a third field called CHAPTER that would open the URL field and take me to 3:38 in the movie?

AFAIK, you just need to append: &t=3m38s to the URL. Edited February 2, 2019 by comment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitch Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 When you're on a youtube video, click the share button, and notice the 'start at' checkbox. Note the way it changes the link, just as @comment described. E.g., it will append ?t=722 to start at that many seconds in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
