Not Working: Enable lightbox for YouTube and Vimeo video links

Hello!
Now, the lightbox works with this form the URL:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkOOVyD9cmg
However, I cannot get the lightbox to play the video starting at a certain time. I have tried the URL in all these forms. They all give an error.
