This user-script is based on my user-style on userstyles.org (Youtube Controls Under Player). Sadly enough a user-style is not going to cut it to cleanup the garbage Youtube has made (again). The main problem was that the time did not update when not hovering over the controls. This script solves that by adding an interval that calls the onmousemove event of the controls.

This script was originally written in typescript and compiled to plain javascript, if you want to see the original code: https://copy.com/TzRldsobyPt8XcKA

To customize the script a little, I've added a few checkboxes to the playback settings page on youtube:
https://www.youtube.com/account_playback

Features:

  • Non-transparent controls
  • Controls are not over the video
  • Controls don't hide at all
  • Controls have the old colors back
  • Controls are smaller (35px vs 40px)
  • Controls will update, they won't freeze until you hover over them
  • Option: disable animations (play/pause button, the expanding of the context menu when changing the quality)
  • In full-screen mode, the controls are also always visible, original colors, and they are smaller (35px again)
  • Option: re-enable auto-hide only in full-screen
  • Subtitles don't move up and down when going over the video
  • The settings that popup (for changing the quality, etc) have a non-transparent background
  • It also seems to play nice with the Resize YT To Window Size script (except for the slow scrolling when a video at 720p+ 60fps is playing, but that might be just me)
  • Controls are smaller in full-screen
  • Option: move the watch later button to the controls (next to the subtitles button at the bottom)
  • Works for embedded videos, but the height is not adjusted and will make the videos slightly smaller than intended.

Things still to do:

  • Nothing

Things I can't do (if you know how to do any of these things, let me know):

  • Change the width of the progress bar without bugging it out
  • Increase the height on embedded videos
