DailyMotion "Playback Quality Control" (0.0.5).

***EXPERIMENTAL***

Description

The Dailymotion player playback settings suck a bit. Specifically:

  • There's no site-wide setting for whether you want Automatic Playback of videos
  • The "Optimal" playback quality setting just isn't, and there's no site-wide setting
    for desired playback quality.

This UserScript removes the normal player and replaces it with the player that Dailymotion
allow you to embed on your own site, which allows some control of playback settings.
This UserScript allows you to directly express your desired site-wide preferences for
Auto Play and Maximum Desired Quality.

Known Issues:

  • The video player on the PLAYLIST type page sometimes starts playing before I get
    a chance to kill it (working on that).
  • I've not tested this at all with HTML5.

Long-term stability:

  • This is using the public REST API and the public Player API - both in the recommended
    way, so that shouldn't break any time soon.
  • Dailymotion occasionally change how the tabs below the video are rendered, so if they
    do the 'Quality' tab won't work/display.

I'll try to keep this updated as much as humanly possible.
