Video Clip Start

video-clip-start

Defines the start time of the clip. Accepts a value in seconds or as a percentage of the video’s total duration.

FormatExample valueBehavior
Seconds5Clip starts at the 5-second mark
Percentage25%25Clip starts at 25% of the video’s total duration

Encoding the % character

Percentage values use a % suffix, which is a reserved character in URLs. It must be percent-encoded as %25 in query strings. A value of 25% is written as 25%25 in the URL.

Can be used in conjunction with video-clip-end to clip a specific segment of a video.

Can also be used with video-clip-duration to define the length of the clip.

When no other video-clip-* parameters are specified, the video will play from the start time to the end of the video.
