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.
  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, toggled by a checkbox in the right bottom corner.
