driver8 / YouTube Thumbnails - Full Video Thumbnails for YouTube

Published:

Version: 0.4.2+1a311c6 updated

Summary: Shows complete video thumbnails for YouTube videos. You can click a thumbnail image to jump to that point in the video.

This script adds a small section labeled "Thumbnails" in between the video and the title on YouTube video pages. When clicked, it expands to show a full set of video thumbnails, including timestamps. Click an individual time or image to jump to that point in the video. Click the heading again to hide the thumbnails.

Please note that it can take YouTube a few hours to generate thumbnails for newly posted videos. If there are no thumbnails available, the section will say "No Thumbnails Available" (also happens with very old videos).

(Tested in Firefox with Greasemonkey and Chrome with Tampermonkey. Please give me feedback if you have any issues!)
