Tobias Thanks for discussing this more and if you create anything please let me know I would love to try it out. I think having Multimedia of every type at the core of TW opens up the world of possibilities. Any chance we can get linkimg added to the core?(wait that is another thread so skip this question)
Astrid's YouTube Hangout Macro worked but the code reacted differently than expected causing errors. She was able to find the issue and fix it, here is a direct link to that code [[$:/.rich/macros/youtube-embed.js]] <http://www.richshumaker.com/tw5/TiddlyWiki-Hangouts.html#%24%3A%2F.rich%2Fmacros%2Fyoutube-embed.js> Her 2 Macro's <<YouTube-Embed>> and <<Embed>> both work really well now. Here is a Code Sample for putting a video into a Tiddler <<embed "076" "00:00:00" "00:01:30">> - Embeds Today's Hangout #076 with a start of 0 and end of 1:30. I talked to Jed Carty after the hangout today and his UI for the YouTube Macro <http://inmysocks.tiddlyspot.com/#YouTube%20Video%20Annotations> allows the functionality of not leaving TiddlyWiki and playing a section of the video. I did not see it last time I checked his implementation but it is there and WOW Jed really WOW. He is updating it and it should be able to do timecode start(##:##:##) and timecode end(##:##:##) with no seconds conversion needed once he completes the update. One use I thought of for this is Students watching lectures from YouTube could easily cut them apart into sections to allow 'Tiddler' sized data sets from Big Lectures. Thanks again to everyone for their help.
