YouTube URL
Add a YouTube URL, for a single video or playlist, copied from the browser address bar or the Share section. The YouTube URL text input can also be used to create playlists from URLs copied from the browser address bar. To create a playlist, you add a comma separated list of video IDs. The video ID is the portion of the URL after "www.youtube.com/watch?v=".
Example:
- Make a playlist from three videos.
youtube.com/watch?v=YYUt1MdJ6TM youtube.com/watch?v=mLjvlHF_hjw youtube.com/watch?v=5imB9goGh9s
- Copy the video IDs.
YYUt1MdJ6TM mLjvlHF_hjw 5imB9goGh9s
- Paste the comma separated video IDs into the YouTube URL text input.
YYUt1MdJ6TM, mLjvlHF_hjw, 5imB9goGh9s

Start video at - begin playing the video at the entered number of hours, minutes, and seconds from the start of the video. The entered start time will override an existing start time in the URL. The start time can be added in h:m:s (hour:minute:second) format or using combinations of h (hour), m (minute), and s (second) format.
An example start time of 1 hour 20 minutes and 30 seconds would be "1:20:30" in h:m:s format and "1h20m30s" in combined h, m, s format.
