UPDATE: Around 18th of June, the script stopped working due to a web page layout change at YouTube. I have since updated the script so that it works again and I hope to have made it more robust against future updates. See the discussion here, if you want.

I basically copied the features found on some YouTube videos so that I can use lights out on every video I want.

The buttons are just above the video, on the right of the video title like where YouTube originally puts it. See the screenshot image file.

I believe this works for Opera as well. Just go to Preferences->Advanced->JavaScript Options and then select the folder where you have put this script to.

Any feedback is welcome, feel free to drop me a line.

If you are interested, there's another greasemonkey script doing a similar task, found here:
