Hey, I've been using this script for a long time and love it. Anyways, recently I enabled the stop autoplay and autodownload function. Now, even after reinstalling the script, when I choose the stop autoplay only feature it still gives me a thumbnail instead of loading the YT player. Any suggestions (although you may think it is some other script or addon interfering, I have not added any new scripts or addons for a while now).

I believe this is a new feature... But I think it is rather annoying than useful! >=( When I select prevent autoplay but not autodownload it is giving me a thumbnail. The only problem is that it doesn't download the video. I tried it with a movie by waiting a half hour. After that I clicked on the thumbnail and the player didn't downloaded the movie, it actually started (down)loading after I clicked the thumbnail.
Can this be fixed? It's very annoying! But except this problem, It is a great script! =D

The option to only stop autoplay shouldn't be giving you a thumbnail. The problem is that YouTube doesn't provide an easy way to do it (even using YouTube API), so I've had to resort to a cumbersome method that sometimes seems to fail. If the method fails, the script falls back to the "substitute with a thumbnail" method.

Does it happen with all the videos or only with some ones? Any error in the error console? What other scripts/addons for YouTube are you using?

Hi, I was having this problem too. I've figured out that when I disable the Flashblock add-on everything works as normal again. I've tried adding youtube.com to Flashblock's whitelist but no luck.

YES!
It does happen by stop autoplay.

I had posted before.

Bevvie is right! It is the Flash block add-on which causes this problem... mmmm I wonder if there's a work-a-round.

EDIT: Or is it not? After a few min it is still giving me this problem with some video's. Very strange.
EDIT 2: No, it stopped doing this. So the problem is caused by Flash Block.
