YouTube5 has become far more popular than I ever imagined it would! I’d like to say a general thank you to everyone who has commented to make suggestions or just express appreciation for this extension, its a great encouragement to know it has been useful to so many people. Several months ago I had hinted that I was in the process of developing a new version of this extension, and I’m excited to announce that it is finally ready! This version is an almost complete rewrite, and includes many improvements over the first, including: A custom designed HTML5 player to replace the usable, but very limited built-in player. Support for Vimeo and Facebook video. The ability to switch video resolutions within the player, without having to access Safari’s preferences. Support for downloading videos from YouTube and Facebook. A fully functional volume control, rather than just a mute button. Support for displaying the video’s title, author, and source, in a video overlay, along with a link back to the video’s page on YouTube, Vimeo, etc.
