Answer 1

Excellent starting point Roy but lets extend this a bit further since Youtube has start from specific time embeds and nowadays gives users the youtu.be links to embed. So to match both cases including starting video from specific timeline I do this. Note that I also added the markup override, remove it if you dont need it.

function extendMagnificIframe(){

    var $start = 0;
    var $iframe = {
        markup: '
' +
                '
' +
                '' +
                '
' +
                '
' +
                '
' +
                '
',
        patterns: {
            youtube: {
                index: 'youtu', 
                id: function(url) {   

                    var m = url.match( /^.*(?:youtu.be\/|v\/|e\/|u\/\w+\/|embed\/|v=)([^#\&\?]*).*/ );
                    if ( !m || !m[1] ) return null;

                        if(url.indexOf('t=') != - 1){

                            var $split = url.split('t=');
                            var hms = $split[1].replace('h',':').replace('m',':').replace('s','');
                            var a = hms.split(':');

                            if (a.length == 1){

                                $start = a[0]; 

                            } else if (a.length == 2){

                                $start = (+a[0]) * 60 + (+a[1]); 

                            } else if (a.length == 3){

                                $start = (+a[0]) * 60 * 60 + (+a[1]) * 60 + (+a[2]); 

                            }
                        }                                   

                        var suffix = '?autoplay=1';

                        if( $start > 0 ){

                            suffix = '?start=' + $start + '&autoplay=1';
                        }

                    return m[1] + suffix;
                },
                src: '//www.youtube.com/embed/%id%'
            },
            vimeo: {
                index: 'vimeo.com/', 
                id: function(url) {        
                    var m = url.match(/(https?:\/\/)?(www.)?(player.)?vimeo.com\/([a-z]*\/)*([0-9]{6,11})[?]?.*/);
                    if ( !m || !m[5] ) return null;
                    return m[5];
                },
                src: '//player.vimeo.com/video/%id%?autoplay=1'
            }
        }
    };

    return $iframe;     

}

$('.my-selector').magnificPopup({
    type: 'iframe',
    iframe: extendMagnificIframe()
});
