Description from extension meta

Allows you to quickly view videos from your subscriptions feed page

Image from store Quickview for YouTube
Description from store Watch videos without leaving your YouTube subscriptions feed page, and possibly without ever clicking. Hover over thumbnails in your feed page to view that video. How about thumbnails at the side of a video page? That works too! Q: What's better than a nice subscriptions feed page that you can scroll forever? A: A page where you can scroll forever AND watch videos. P.S. This is open-source at https://github.com/ngzhian/quickview -LATEST CHANGES- 2.5.0 works on more pages now (homepage, channel page, video page) 2.4.0 Works with new YouTube design now! 2.3.0 Set your preferred hover time (how long the pointer has to stay above the thumbnail to trigger Quickview) It now shows view count, like count, dislike count 2.2.0 Set your preferred playback rate in the brand new options page! Click on the QuickView icon in the toolbar and select options. 2.1.1 Temp fix for comments text not showing up: https://code.google.com/p/gdata-issues/issues/detail?id=7969 2.1.0 Code cleanup, not much visible changes for the user 2.0.0 Fixed to work with YouTube API v3. 1.11.0 Bug fixes due to YT changing its HTML. Looks prettier and more consistent with YT's native style :) 1.10.1 Fix hover not working on some thumbnails due to changes in class name, it should be more robust to any changes on YT side now. 1.9.1 Updated to use https by default

  • (2023-09-10) FairySlash: it works great, but the delay option doesn't actually delay the video showing up like I think was the intention? I set it to the equivalent of a minute of delay and it still shows up in a couple of seconds. I set it to all 9s, up until the max, and got the same result.
  • (2023-06-08) Steven Ha: Doesn't seem to work with inline preview enabled, but still good
  • (2023-03-02) Miguel Garza: Works quite well but because it works on so many pages now, it's unintentionally annoying...because I forget that it exists and then suddenly videos start playing simply because my mouse cursor stopped moving while over a thumbnail. Would be nice if we could set which pages it works on. Also, it'd be really nice if maybe it only worked while you held down a certain key, such as one of the modifier keys (Ctrl, Alt, Shift, etc). If this were configurable, that would be amazing.
  • (2023-02-12) libra study: great
  • (2022-12-31) Sohaib Ali: Good Work
  • (2022-10-07) Hoschen: Cool, but the hover delay option didn't change anything for me. It's always the default time (yes, I refreshed youtube)
  • (2021-11-13) Brian Smith: Thank you, i would like to hide video description from pop out
  • (2021-10-10) blue: Great! But there are some suggestions. 1. If I hover outside of the preview window, I wish I could close the preview automatically. 2. Also, please make "close the window" icon on the top right corner like a normal window. 2. I want to select the default preview size. (small/ big) 3. I don't want to see the video info. It would be great if you make it an option.
  • (2021-05-29) Dr. House: should be more popular, been using it daily for a long time now, can't imagine watching youtube without it anymore - too convenient
  • (2020-12-21) Emmanoel Igor Henrique da Silva: Precisa se adequar ao novo layout do Youtube, bem como otimizar o app, pois ainda é muito pesado ao abrir o vídeo.
  • (2017-11-04) Gersivan Oliveira: Não funcionou.
  • (2017-04-20) Vayers Lim: Very efficient and fun to use, saves me a lot of time.
  • (2016-10-20) Baron BarrabanaHorse: Yes, this is exactly what im looking for.
  • (2016-02-14) Oliver Stahl: Great extension that makes the youtube experience - especially the subscription feed - much better. Great support too! I reported an issue and got a reply and fix within hours!
  • (2015-12-29) Private Angel: does nothing on chrome
  • (2015-08-15) Eduard Riegel: good but needs a customizable delay timer for popping up the window. Whizzing over a few thumbnails for fractions of a second might be enough topop up the player. A lot more options would be good.
  • (2015-07-29) Andre Cabrera: The video info isnt showing for me. Im using the HTML5 version if that helps.
  • (2015-06-15) Music z: Loved it.. Thanks a lot..
  • (2015-05-06) João “jwam” Ferreira: Wow! \o/ Really works and is awesome. Should have a comment box, but it's ok.
  • (2014-08-07) Davis Graham: Awesome! No complaints. Thanks nghian.
  • (2014-07-22) Works great, really handy on a big TV too.
  • (2013-06-05) Apostol Apostolov: I love the functionality but hate the weird UI. Please improve the UI to fit modern YouTube. Also please add option to show only if you hover for extended number of seconds.

  • (2022-01-21, v:2.5.0) Clemens Ratte-Polle: Video pop out also in YT search?
    is it possible also to put Videos into the floating layer during Youtube Video searches?
  • (2021-06-04, v:2.5.0) Riaz Ali: please add Dates
    - fantastic addon... but, I noticed for some reason the video date is missing from the Quickview popup. Specifically, I'm talking about the date that appears next to the view count under a video. I often open Quickview, then have to close it to see the date under the popup, then re-open Quickview. - I also noticed that from what I can tell, Quickview was meant to show comments... would it be possible to tweak the code so comments work?
  • (2021-01-15, v:2.5.0) Dr. House: stopped working today
    I don't know if this addon is still being maintained, but today every youtube video I hover over opens, the video hangs, then the error message appears, example: "An error occurred. Please try again later. (Playback ID: -txANJv6uDFaMQb2) Learn More"
  • (2020-09-01, v:2.5.0) James Davis: Delay setting does not work?
    Changed from default to a few higher settings and it remains at default and does not delay start on hover.

    It is not working after youtube layout upddate
  • (2017-05-24, v:2.3.0) Oliver Stahl: Cut-off comments
    Dear Zhi An Ng, thanks for this great extension, it makes youtube much greater for me. Especially that it also displays the comments next to the video. There's one problem though: longer comments (more than 6 rows) get cut off and there is no way to scroll down or extend them. Do you see a way to improve this? I'd be glad to send a small donation, tool. Thanks
  • (2016-07-19, v:2.2.0) Suggestions
    hello Zhi An Ng, firstly I'd like to say this is a great app, nice work on this! If I may suggest,It would be great if there was some kind of safety feature option, like shift + click to open the quick view YouTube. Because I find myself always accidentally opening YouTube videos and it's really inconvenient. Also, if there was a way to make the video/ quick view smaller that would be great also because it takes a lot of the space on the screen and you don't have much space to browse through your subscriptions to look for other videos while watching your quick view video. And perhaps you can show the amount of likes and dislikes as well as views. because quite frequently I use the likes and dislikes to determine if the video is worth it to watch or not anyhow, thanks!
  • (2016-07-06, v:2.1.1) Elvio Sakamoto: video speed
    hi, any chance u could add an option to change the default video speed? i use another extension for that but it doesnt work on quickview
