The script hugely improves load speed of pages with lots of embedded Youtube videos by instantly showing clickable and immediately accessible placeholders, then the thumbnails are loaded in background.

  1. Click the thumbnail to play the video in a standard Youtube embedded player with a full-screen button

  2. Shift-click to play as HTML5 video directly, 720p is automatically selected if available.

    The behavior may be reversed by an option at the bottom right corner of any video thumbnail. The option is global and applies to all players.

  3. There's also a link to open the video page on Youtube.

  4. Last used volume is remembered for the native HTML5 player.

  5. Video thumbnail is resized to fit available width or custom size, customizable in the right bottom corner of any processed video.

  6. Other videos on current page are automatically paused when you click a new video and it starts to play.

  7. Storyboard thumbnails for video positions of 25%, 50%, 75% are shown on mouseover.
