Answer 1

Markdown does not support video embed by default, but you can use images to link YouTube video.

[![Black Widow](https://img.youtube.com/vi/Fp9pNPdNwjI/default.jpg)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fp9pNPdNwjI) 

Fp9pNPdNwjI is the unique address of the video and you can check the YouTube video link.

And there are some size options.

/default, /1, /2, /3

/mqdefault

/hqdefault

/sddefault

/maxresdefault

---

You can also specify the start point of the video when the image is clicked.
Just add ?t= followed by The unique code of the video link.
