Supporting embeds: Youtube, soundcloud etc.

We're testing Product Lift as a replacement for our wordpress forum, but not being able to embed media content from big sources like Youtube and Soundcloud is a bit of a deal breaker (we are a music software company)

I have just made a fix for the timestamp. Can you check if it now works correctly?

Tried the [video] markdown in your documentation, not working regardless of the youtube URL format

Thanks Ruben. I got it to work, you just need to past the youtube URL standalone on a new line. I could not get the embed to be timestamped though. I've tried all the possible URL parameters, the embed iframe strips down the timestamp:

All these will open timestamped in a browser window:

https://youtu.be/nEVI77oKp5U?start=10
https://youtu.be/nEVI77oKp5U?feature=shared&t=10

But here as embeds none is timestamped:

Awesome, thanks Ruben. Working indeed with adding a ?start=X parameter. But strangely &start=X will not work, e.g.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5G0W-NLMqjw&start=40 => does not work

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5G0W-NLMqjw?start=40 => work
