Okay so you have an embedded YouTube video or link, and you want to select where in the time line it starts. If you are only using a LINK, the variable string is:
#t=*m**s
this is time = minutes and seconds (note the 2 digit seconds needed. Here it is in practice(this is link to Emmitt Smith hall of fame induction [SAFE]:

As you can see, it starts right where we want it to. This is especially useful in just getting a particular point in a very long video.
Now that you have seen that, how do we get it on an embedded video? The technique is the same but with a twist.
We have to use the ‘start’ command, and calculate all of the time into seconds. Since we want to start at the 1 min 30 seconds point; we convert that to seconds, which is 90 seconds. The embed code will look like this:
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/G5lZ_4RHkT0&hl=en_US&start=90"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/G5lZ_4RHkT0&hl=en_US&start=90" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
Here you can see this used in the same video embedded in this site(starting at 1 min 30 seconds)
