The links on the timecodes commanding the player in subtitles pages aren't working

The links on the timecodes commanding the player in subtitles pages aren't working. Examples:

In http://www.universalsubtitles.org/en/videos/AYbHRuftABux/fr/459021, which is streaming a YT video,  if I click for instance on the link labeled 0:06 – 0:11, the player fleetingly shows the video at the right point (0:6.004), then goes to end of the video.

In http://www.universalsubtitles.org/en/videos/fHT7SnWWjSVB/fr/251632, which is streaming an Internet Archive video,  if I click for instance on the link labeled 0:07 – 0:10, the player directly goes to the beginning of the video, without even showing it fleetingly at the right point.

Hi Claude, I'll be looking into this issue, I'll let you know what I find out!
Thanks, Jules.

However, the issue persists. And I've since noticed that the little arrows in each subtitle of the sync stage of the subtitling widget (see attachment) don't work either. Are the two features (and issues) related?

 The issue persists, both in subtitle pages and in the sync'ing part of the subtitling widget.

The issue persists (April 17, 2013). As I made the first post in this thread on "2012-12-10 08:57:39 +0100", the issue has been persisting for 4 months and a week now.

Of course there are work-arounds: e.g. you can download the subs, create a new page for the video on DotSUB.com that has a great interactive transcript below the main player, which is reasonably sized too and where the subs work in full scree, contrary to Amara; upload the Amara-made subs there, and share:
  • the DotSUB link for viewing
  • the Amara link for editing

But it's not exactly user-friendly to have to link to and use two different pages for the same subtitled video, is it?
