This is a script that manages the video controls overlay on a youtube video (i.e. pause, fast forward, progress bar, etc.) The need for this script is that, due to recent changes by google, the video controls overlay the video, cutting off 30-40 pixels from the bottom.

Functionality:

  • Shows the video player controls if the cursor moves within the video area
  • Hides the video player controls if the cursor leaves the video area
  • Hides the video player controls if the cursor does not move within the area for 1 second (interval be changed)



Note that when the video player controls are hidden, the progress bar is still shown as 3-pixels high from the bottom.
