If you wish to skip the introduction of an embedded Youtube video, here is a simple trick to help you out.

The trick is to add a start parameter, which is the time in seconds to skip, to the embed code provided by Youtube. To illustrate this, here is a sample embed code with the extra parameter highlighted.

<object width="425" height="344">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/G4evlxq34og&hl=fr&fs=1&start=190"></param>
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/G4evlxq34og&hl=fr&fs=1&start=190"
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
    allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344">
</embed>
</object>

Or you could use Splicd, a simple tool to “splice” Youtube videos. All you need to do is enter the Youtube URL, the start time, and the end time and Splicd would create the “spliced” video for you.
