Shoutouts to Mohammed who contacted me on Telegram and helped me fix an issue with inner iframes on Tampermonkey.

Based on this script written by Backend.

Changes from Backend's script:

  • Now uses yewtu.be as the Invidious instance
  • Changed default autoplay behavior. By default videos will now only autoplay when 'autoplay=1' is already defined in the source YouTube embed.
  • The script now uses URLSearchParams for better handling of search parameters on the embeds.
  • The script will now use the 'listen=1' parameter when the embed has 0 or 1 defined as its width and height to save bandwidth
  • Fixed an infinite loop that would occur when an YouTube embed's hostname didn't start with 'www.'
  • Fixed the script not detecting youtu.be embeds
  • Fixed the script not working with Violentmonkey
  • Fixed the script breaking YouTube embeds on DuckDuckGo
