Hypertext to YouTube with time code doesn't work properly - Blu-ray Forum

In this post, I created hypertext to a YouTube video with time code:

Code:

https://youtu.be/Pz75i6EsOto?t=257

However, the link, when posted, does this instead:

Code:

URL="https://www.youtube.com/supported_browsers?next_url=https://www.youtube.com/watch"

Just updated the first post because I realised it didn't show the intended URL (part of the problem).

I think this has been an issue on the site for a while. Hyperlinking to YT videos is hit-or-miss. Even when posting videos on their own (i.e. to embed), I've been trained to add "Skip to 4:28" beforehand whenever I want to include a timestamp for a YT video.
