Thanks Tobias and Jeremy.

I will have to look at the embed code for both sites as a generic set of 
code makes a lot of sense.
As far as the timecode goes I am afraid I am lost with what you guys are 
talking about.

I was hopeful that you could feed the Tiddler Data back to the Tiddler and 
nesting the Tiddlers with Transclusion was an idea I thought of but wasn't 
sure how to feed the data from one to the other.
I don't think my simplistic explanation above will help but I wanted to 
find out if I might be on the correct path.
