Videos Structred Data SeekToAction Moves Out of Beta To Bring Key Moments in non YouTube Video Content

https://developers.google.com

Google is moving the  SeekToAction  feature out of beta and supporting this markup for any site with videos.

Note that SeekToAction markup applies only to videos embedded on your own site. If you post videos on third-party platforms where you don’t control the schema.org markup, you can reach out to those platforms to see if this markup is supported.

 Here are a few tips to keep in mind when implementing this markup:

  • Your URLs must have the ability to deep link into some point other than the start point in the video. For example, http://www.example.com/example?t=30 starts 30 seconds into a video.
  • Use SeekToAction markup on every video page where you’d like Google to automatically identify key moments, and follow our additional guidelines. Here’s a detailed example.
  • To automatically identify key moments in your video, Google must be able to fetch your video content files
