YouTube We tease the addresses and do whatever we want

Below we'll see how you can do more with it by "teasing" URLs.

Let's look at some tricks with YouTube URLs that will allow you to get more out of the service, such as converting a in GIFs. First the simple:

Link to any part of a video

Normally, when you copy a link from a YouTube video and open it, it starts over. But if you want to show someone a specific section of a video or skip a long introduction, you can add a timestamp to the URL to get started at that moment.

There are two ways you can do this. Manually add & t = YmXX at the end of a URL. You need to set Y (minutes) and XX (seconds) in the video. You can skip minutes or use only seconds like 90s for a minute and a half.

For example, the video:

youtube.com/watch?v=H69hMdZ6EL8

It can be notified when it has already started playing for two minutes using this URL:

youtube.com/watch?v=H69hMdZ6EL8&t=120

If you don't want to use the non method, stop the video where you want to share it and swipe right . Select Copy video URL at current time.

Play a video indefinitely

If you like a song and want to listen to it over and over again, you can add a repeater to the URL.

This will open the video on YouTubeRepeater.com, which will constantly play the video for you.

So change this URL:

youtube.com/watch?v=H69hMdZ6EL8

In:

youtube repeater.com / watch? v = H69hMdZ6EL8

Using the options below the video on the new page to change the start or end times of the video.

Of course you can do the same from YouTube. Just right-click on the YouTube video and turn on Loop on to continue playing it.

Bypassing age restrictions

YouTube has age restrictions on some videos that have been flagged as containing adult content. If you haven't on YouTube, or if you don't want to log in to watch a video, you can tweak the address a bit. little trick to bypass the connection.

Let's get the same URL:

youtube.com/watch?v=H69hMdZ6EL8

Add nsfw in front of the youtube section of the link, as shown here:

nsfwyoutube.com/watch?v=H69hMdZ6EL8

The video will open on a new site and there will be no age restrictions. If you still see the age restriction message, the new page will give you another option.

Skip a specific part of the introduction

Similar to the URL trick that allows you to select the start time of a video, you can also choose to skip a few seconds from the beginning of the video. You can not specify minutes with this, so you should use seconds.

So to skip the first 30 seconds of this video:

youtube.com/watch?v=H69hMdZ6EL8

Add & start = 30 at the end of the URL:

youtube.com/watch?v=H69hMdZ6EL8&start=30

Take a screenshot of any video

If you do a Google search for images you will see images from YouTube videos titled maxresdefault. With a custom URL, you can easily get a high quality screenshot for any YouTube video.

So we have the video youtube.com/watch?v=H69hMdZ6EL8 and we want a picture.

Replace [VideoID] in the following link (exists after v = as you see above):

img.youtube.com/vi/[VideoID]/maxresdefault.jpg

So visit this link:

img.youtube.com/vi/H69hMdZ6EL8/maxresdefault.jpg

Create a GIF from a YouTube video

Did you find a video on YouTube that has a moment worth doing GIF? You can easily create an animated GIF from anywhere in a video by adding the gif before the YouTube link.

For example, we have the same link

youtube.com/watch?v=H69hMdZ6EL8

Change URL:

gifyoutube.com/watch?v=H69hMdZ6EL8

You will be taken to gifs.com, where you can add effects and trim the GIF to your liking. Once you're done, you can share it or download it to your computer.

All of the above will allow you to make the most of YouTube. Some are embedded in YouTube itself, while others use external services. It is possible that any of them will stop working in the future, so do not waste time.
