Youtube "Clips"

Hi there,

Youtube clips are a great way to shorten a particular portion of a video without editing it. When clipping a video on youtube, you get the URL to share. However, the embed video on H5P doesn't support this.

Hi Taolbi!

This is not an issue with H5P, but with YouTube itself.

The YouTube Player API that YouTube provides to external services like H5P expects a regular video id in order to load a video. It doesn't handle clip URLs / the custom ids that are generated. There's nothing that an H5P developer could do to support what you are requesting.

Cheers,
Oliver
