How To Embed Google Video With Specific Start Point & AutoPlay
If you want to share a specific part of a video on your blog or website, these directions should be helpful.

Thanks for the tip!
Unfortunately, Wordpress.com does not allow the use of the embed tag, GoogleVideos have to be embedded with a specific [googlevideo=URL] tag, where URL is the address displayed in the ’src’ attribute of the embed tag, so WordPress.com users cannot use the FlashVars attribute.
However, I found out that it also works if you just add the initialTime at the end of the URL, so on WordPress.com, with the above example, you would want to type:
[googlevideo=http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=-4935715412555856092&initialTime=2171]

You can autoplay by adding the parameter:
FlashVars="initialTime=number"
