Sharing something I found with the Youtube player in Wizzy.
When you get a YT URL with a start time specified, it typically is something to the effect of ..?t=8
In that example, the start would be at the 8 second mark.
This works for address bar, but not for the YT player of Wizzy.
Instead get the regular URL from YT for the video and paste that in the player URL,
Then put &start=8 in the custom parameters field.
This works at time of writing..
Basically the new 't=' doesn't work with the player, but the old method 'start=' works, when used in the custom parameters field.

Youtube start time for Wizzy Youtube player.

Re: Youtube start time for Wizzy Youtube player.
First note that this is not a 'wizzy' player. It the standard player of YouTube.
Basically, it is just an inline frame URL.
The URL should look like this:
https://www.youtube.com/v/gGtQZ6kANXY
Extra parameters should be added in the 'custom parameter' field.
All custom parameters will be added "AS IS", so if they do not work then there may be an error in the format. WWB does not apply any logic to these values.
You can easily verify this by looking at the generated code.

Re: Youtube start time for Wizzy Youtube player.
Of course it works! This is the url provided by Pablo with the following added ?&t=3s 3 seconds into the start. https://www.youtube.com/v/gGtQZ6kANXY?&t=3sBasically the new 't=' doesn't work with the player, but the old method 'start=' works, when used in the custom parameters field.
See screenshot

If you open in a browser then Youtube changes the url to the following and it still uses &t=3s at the end
