This script not only shows you a Green/Red Ratings Bar underneath video thumbnails for Likes/Dislikes, it also tries to show you how Enthusiastic people are about certain videos with an additional Blue bar, or "Power Meter".


If you see a yellow dotted line, then the video is simultaneously too new and too popular to calculate the blue Power Meter. This has to do with the way YouTube's system works. It won't take longer than half a day for it to fix itself. The Red Dislikes bar will remain still visible.

In addition to the bars, you can rest the cursor over thumbnail images to get a tooltip with ratings and power details.

The Power Meter algorithm adjusts itself based on how many Views a video has had. It won't let a video with three Views and three Likes receive a 100% Power Meter, for instance.

This is a complete overhaul of an old script of mine called "YouTube Ratings Bar with Like Strength". At some point I'll make the colors and size editable, probably via UserStyles.

I'm still learning JavaScript and it's likely that there's something stupidly wrong about this script. All I know is - I'm going to be using this script myself quite often, so if it breaks, I'll probably fix it. I run this on Chrome with TamperMonkey and Firefox Nightly with GM - but mostly Chrome. That basically means that Firefox support's going to be come and go. It's currently not working in Firefox; but I wish it would, if that counts.
