Hello @themolitor and @jschuller, This seems amazing and can be the great alternative to paid YouTube-skin features of VooPlayer etc. But it needs a WordPress plugin for sure. Can we currently emded it on WordPress site? Are you planning to monetize it as well in near future? I would love to know if you guys have any plan to create a WordPress plugin so that any YouTube videos posted on Posts can be wrapped with riv-yt codes and hence can be made beautiful and distraction full. I would also want you to include 'Sticky video' of Facebook like 'floating video' feature if you are thinking to create WP plugin. :) Thank you.

@jschuller @niteshmanav Thanks Nitesh! Some great suggestions here. We're excited at everyone's reaction and brainstorming possible implementations of riv.yt. We definitely have a laundry list of ideas and features we want to integrate into this service. It's just a matter of sitting down and deciding on which one we should focus on first ;-)

@jschuller @themolitor Thanks for the response. Well, I had forgotten about the parent project 'Rivyt' that I had loved and upvoted months back. :) The designs at rivyt is simply top-notch now. I think you guys should think about some 'agency plan' for your rivyt model as well, where a digital media agency can get a while-labeled rivyt for their clients' YouTube channel. I might try to contact you externally for some partnership soon. Be ready. :)

Another beautiful looking project, congrats! I thought it might be useful to have a "Shared by" link at the bottom of the page too, so I could attach my name / avatar to the link. Also it might be cool to look at distraction free playlists at some point too. I continue to love what you guys are making!

Great tool - I plan to use this for YT videos I want to share during workshops as it is free from distractions!

I have been using RIVYT for months to host my website for my YouTube channel. This new functionality just takes things one step further. It allows people to experience the content without all the rubbish.

Pros:

This is a great way to experience YouTube without the hinderance of Youtube itself!

Cons:

None that I have found yet

Just wanted to repeat my feature request from twitter here: Youtube's API supports both starting and ending timestamps as parameters, but youtube.com only supports the starting parameter. riv.yt could really capitalize on this as the easiest way to share a distraction-free segment of a video!
