Hi,

This might not be what you're looking for (and I'm only a basic user etc.) 
but I use links to external YouTube videos a lot in my wiki.

I use Mohammed's Refnotes plugin which shows the source on hover and {{y}} 
is a small transcluded video icon which opens the video in a new tab when 
clicked. The following is contained as a text editor snippet which I can 
repeatedly paste into the tiddler to go with the relevant text.

<a href="

">{{y}}</a> <<fnote "Jeremy Ruston">>

I then copy the video link to play at the current time and paste in the gap 
above:


<a href="
https://youtu.be/OFstPn355xQ?t=743
">{{y}}</a> <<fnote "Jeremy Ruston">>

Regards
Jon
