- The player reload code is now faster
- Internal changes to the video formats code
- Chrome ad is now eliminated from the homepage
- The easy-to-use download links look better now
- The easy-to-use download link are now available is an error prevents the script from getting its availability
- Promoted videos ad removal has been fixed
- Added "hidden" preference to tweak the video formats quality order1

Note 1: I haven't added a configuration dialog to set this preference yet, but I'll explain how to use it. If you can't get it to work, please wait till I write a GUI to do it. I don't want to answer questions about this.

To set this preference, you'll have to open about:config and add a preference (String) with this name (without quotes): "greasemonkey.scriptvals.h**p://userscripts.org/scripts/show/13333/YousableTubeFix.userFormats" (h**p should be http). Its value should be an array of your selected video formats in your preferred order (from highest to lowest), in JSON format. For example, if you want the "best available quality" preference to select format 18 (MP4) over format 6 (FLV HQ), use ["22", "18", "6", ""]. If you don't want the script to check format 22 (MP4 HQ), you can use ["6", "18", ""]. If you want the default values, use null.

Is something wrong with autoupdate? Script didnt told me that there is new version.

BTW array of known video formats(in source code) looks better in previous versions. It was easy to set format preference then. Now is all in 4 lines and looks horrible.

Beyond Fan: Thanks for your compliments

matej505:
The script only checks for updates once a day when you're visiting YouTube

Horrible, eh? How nice :-) . I think you didn't understand what I've written above: you don't need to edit the script anymore to tweak the format preference. You only have to follow the instructions or wait till I write the configuration code for it. And it won't get overwritten when the script is updated

Thanks so much for adding the ability to change the order! Now I won't have to change it with each update! :)

I seem to be having a problem with the new version where the quality/format drop-down box doesn't do anything any more. With previous versions when selecting a different (green) setting, the movie would reload and restart at the beginning in the new format, but now it doesn't seem to do anything -- no reload and no change in quality. Am I the only one seeing this?
