Mar 17, 2022dthakar - Oops, sorry about that! I had a typo. The single quote should be double quotes. I just tested it and it works with double quotes, like this:
&nav={"playbackOptions":{"startTimeInSeconds":60}}
I'll update the help doc to correct my mistake.

Marc Mroz have you tried adding chapters which appears to do the same thing as the old comments :). Stop anywhere on the video, click 'add chapter' then drop in a note - the timecode is stamped automatically.
- Adil1982Sep 10, 2022Copper ContributorNot sure this provides the same user experience. It would be good to attach comments to o timecodes, so that a threaded discussion could occur around that comment (think Loom.com). With chapters, you've got to then reference your comment back to the chapter.

Comments tied to specific time codes is on our radar too. But not working on it yet.

Chapters just released to world wide in the last few weeks! Chapters are a great way to have specific points in the video to help viewers get to the right part of the video.- Billy LarivièreSep 08, 2022Copper ContributorFrom what I am experiencing, it seems that activating the "chapters" function negates the possibility of adding a specific timing when sharing a video. Is there a workaround to this?
Can we share a video and "start playback at a specific chapter" embedded in the link?
Or is there a workaround so I could still share a video with specific "stat playback at" function, event though I have the "chapters" activated?
