Great script

Awesome script. I was looking for one just like this one for a while, thanks!

request: I'd like to be able to play more than one video please. Along with a grid thumb script I found i would like to play a whole wall of videos.

Why would you want to play multiple videos simultaneously? Wouldn't it be a mess?
And how you want to control them? You want me to add a stop button?

Thanks for answering. That's a good question. A stop/pause button and maybe volume control. Although it looks nice and clean without buttons.

I use it when searching for content within videos so I don't have the need to play the audio in two or more videos. But some may want the volume control option for other purposes.

If you are interested in just the video content you might want to have a look at this script (which I used as a base for my script): youtube_mouseover_preview
It doesn't support simultaneous playback either, but it should be faster (as it uses YouTube's storyboard) and it doesn't play the audio.
You can modify it as you want, though I still don't see the point of playing multiple videos at the same time.
