Basic Description
This script automatically loads the HQ / HD version of the video on the page without refreshing the whole page, with lots of other little "goodies" for YouTube. Is the script broken? Complain here, email me (aavindraa@gmail.com), or wait for an update (as you may have noticed, I updated this script many, many times). Read on for the various other features.
Why this script and not the others?
Because this script incorporates many features often wanted on YouTube, but doesn't overkill on functionality. In general, it is simple and FREQUENTLY UPDATED. Some of the newer features were thanks to requests in the discussions. So if you don't like it, feel free to yell at me!
Some of the problems I have with other YouTube scripts: They're copies, they're broken, they use full JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, they are slow, they overkill on layout, they're slowly updated or never at all and end up murdering usability.
Also, a ton of the scripts on here are now COPIES of mine. Beware of them! Rate them down, report them and get them off the site.
This doesn't mean I have the only good YouTube script. Scroll down for my recommendations.
Options
This script has many options that aren't hard to configure. Look in the upper-right hand corner of a video page to find the link to the configuration.

Compatibility
Tested to work perfectly in Firefox 3.5. Update. Come on, seriously, it's 2009.
This script is known to have issues with Safari, Google Chrome and most likely Internet Explorer. I heard Opera works good with it too, but I cannot confirm myself. EDIT: I also heard newer versions of my script don't work with Opera. Too bad.
