I'm sure if this has been say it already in some topic.

I have some weird bugs when I go to video page, sometimes "prevent only autoplay" works, but sometimes it prevents also a autoplay and autodownload, showing thumbnail in the video and have to press then it plays the video. It's very random and I don't get why it's so random...

Maybe it's extension's cost problem, I don't know.

YousableTubeFix uses the thumbnail when the method of pausing the video with the YouTube API fails a certain number of times, as a fallback mechanism. The problem is that it's random and I haven't found the error yet. I'm trying to put a better method for future versions, as I'm not pleased with the current method. The YouTube API design isn't helping, either.

Now it happens every time, there isn't a single video that doesn't turns into a thumbnail. It's getting annoying. Maybe we should make a big move with several diggs, reddits and stumbles, emails and blog pots, complaining to force youtube to fix it.

Buggyy: you're right, now it's every single video. God damn Youtube that they have to change the site too often! Now have to use autoplay... Not good. And that idea sounds cool :P

All videos? It works ok for me right now. Any error in the error console? It'd be a good thing if it fails in all videos, because then I'd be able to clearly see why it's failing.

It still fails every videos, I just test with 10 videos and 10 out of 10 was failing.

Auto-play fails when I load a video in a background tab, but it works when I reload that same page in the foreground tab.

To all:
Do you have Flashblock installed? It seems that there's a problem with some functions of the script if Flashblock is installed.
