How can I disable the annoying tooltip box when hovering on video definition on video thumbnails?

How can I disable the annoying video defninitions and formats tooltip box when hovering on the video definition on video thumbnails?

BTW The tooltip box sometimes appears even when I didn't hover over the defninition info!

Yes, you can. The instructions are in the Info page.

There are some high-level settings in the script. Search for var userConfig = {.

tagLinks: tag all the links.

Possible values: true / false

Default: true

Set to false if you do not want to tag the video links. It will reduce network traffic.

But before you do so, give v1.96 a try. See if it works better there. There was a bug in v1.95 that prevented it from working properly.

But if I set "tagLinks" to "false", there are no video definitions anymore in the upper left corner of the video thumbnails. :|

Would be cool, if you could create a settings entry for the userscript extensions (Tampermonkey, Greasemonkey) to easily enable/disable this hover tooltip box.

Is there any reason you want to see the tag but do not want to expand it to show all the formats? That tag by itself isn't very helpful.

The userscript managers need to come up with an easy way to configure settings for scripts. The scripts should just need to provide the list of settings, their formats and description.

Yes, because I just want to know what the maximum available video definitions for the videos are.

From v2, you can make the video tag not open on hovering by setting the config option tagLinks to label.

See the Info page on user settings.

Thank you very much for the new configuration options! :)

You forgot to mention though, that I have to put label in qutotation marks - "label" - to make it work. ;)

You are right, but the Info page is correct. :D

tagLinks: tag all video links

    Added in v1.00, "label" in v2.

    Possible values: true / false / "label"

    Default: true

    Set to false if you do not want to tag the video links. It will reduce network traffic.

    If set to "label", click on the tag to open pop-up menu.
