jw.org videos time code

[Floyd]

Is there a way to link to a video and a specific time within the video? Like you might want to link to a specific part of the convention.

I asked exactly the same question a few weeks ago and apparently there is no way:

Sorry I missed it.

Transcripts sometimes have the time codes

Oh, no problem. If we find a way to point to a specific timestamp we will post it here.

Here's a way to send a JW.org video link so it starts at a specific time.

1. Open the video and click the Share button. Copy and paste the link somewhere.

2. Note the timing of where you want the video to start. For this one, it should start at 1 minute 43 seconds. 

3. Convert 1 minute 43 seconds to seconds:
             1 minute = 60 seconds
             60 seconds + 43 seconds = 103 seconds

3. Add "&ts=" to the link I copied followed by the number of seconds:
              &ts=103

4. If you want to get really detailed you can add partial seconds too. Here's my final link:

                https://www.jw.org/finder?srcid=share&wtlocale=ASL&lank=pub-jwbvod26_25_VIDEO&ts=103.5

5. Share it! The receiver will see a little message in the corner showing what time the video will start at. This only works when they click your link. If they refresh the page the adjusted timing will be gone.
