EmbedPlus allows users to embed YouTube videos with additional DVR-like capabilities that the standard YouTube player does not currently offer:

  • Scene Skipping - skip to marked times
  • Movable Zoom - magnify the area you point at
  • On-Demand Slow Motion - instantly slow down videos
  • Instant Replay - easily replay an event
  • Your Own Annotations- add your own timed annotations

With EmbedPlus, seamlessly upgrade video for free. Features like scene skipping and annotations could enhance classroom videos. The slow motion and movable zoom functions can offer added accessibility for students with special needs.

Copy and paste the YouTube video's URL. Next, set a number of options such as embed size, start time, scene markers, and annotations. Then an HTML embed code and a short URL are generated. Copy and paste this code into the HTML of your web page and visitors will be able to watch the video using the enhanced EmbedPlus player.
