A reader emailed me asking how I managed to "trim" the YouTube video I posted above. Actualy, I haven't trimmed it - what I've done is enter a starting and ending point. I've provided the code below for the untrimmed video and the trimmed video. Notice that in the embed code, I've inserted &start=204&end=228 after the YouTube url http://www.youtube.com/v/iGpIT2bVZDw. The 204 and 228 are seconds - so start at 3 minutes and 24 seconds and end at 3 minutes and 48 seconds. Not too bad!
Untrimmed

You rock! this is exactly what I was looking for.

Very nice and easy. Thank you
ReplyDeleteI don't think this is possible anymore. It at one point it was possible, now the "end" parameter was removed. I looked it up on the youtube embed parameters list...
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't really make sense that there is a "start" parameter and not an "end" one... It can be really useful.
Do you have a workaround for this? i've been searching for it like a madman.
Thanks. :)
This is awesome. Thank you. This will help me a lot.
