Youtube is the most popular video portal on the Internet, that is without question. There are however several annoyances like automatic video playback that irritate at least some users. I collected four Greasemonkey scripts that improve Youtube, that either add functions or remove functions and elements that are not necessary for watching the videos.
You need to have Greasemonkey installed which can be downloaded as a Firefox add-on from Mozilla. The following five scripts will add some great functions to Youtube, a resize function for the videos or RSS feeds for user searches and more.
Greasmonkey scripts are installed in a similar fashion as Firefox add-ons. The browser does not need to be closed though, only the current tab needs to be refreshed, or a new one opened to make the script work.
Youtube RSS Feed
Adds a RSS feed tag to the Firefox address bar for user and tag searches.
Youtube Prevent Autoplay
Don't you hate it when videos start playing automatically when you are on Youtube ? Users with slow connections surely do. This script replaces the Youtube player that autostarts videos with one that does not.
Youtube Cleaner
Removes comments and related sidebar from video pages with the option to restore them when needed.
YousableTubeFix
Makes it possible to resize videos played on Youtube and removes ads as well. Could not get the download video function to work though.
