How to embed a FaceBook video on a web page

From Facebook's Embedded Video

"With the embedded video player you can easily add Facebook videos and Facebook live videos to your website. You can use any public video post by a Page or a person as video or live video source."

In the "URL of video" textbox, paste in the url of the public FB video you want to share.

Click the "Get Code" button.

For blogger add a "HTML/JavaScript" Gadget and add the step 2 code. I like to move it to the bottom.

Paste the Step 3 code in the html of your web page.

Start an embedded YouTube video at a certain timestamp

Updated May 2014
You can add a start parameter to the embed code that YouTube generates for you.

From 2011
From https://www.mattcutts.com/blog/start-youtube-video-minutes-seconds/

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tMuSVVljg8#t=17m08s

The “#t=17m08s” takes you to 17 minutes and 8 seconds in a video.

Embedded code.
<object height="385" width="640"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/8tMuSVVljg8&hl=en_US&start=1028"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/8tMuSVVljg8&hl=en_US&start=1028" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>
See here for the example working.

This guide gives some other good pointers, "The default (and recommended) embed size is 480x385 for a 4:3 video and 640x385 for 16:9 content."

Here is an example of using 640x385 for 4:3 video.
