Does YouTube show ads in the embedded player? Wouldn't it be easy to make an extension where you can click a button in YouTube when an ad pops up, and it moves the video into an embedded player on a localhost domain? (Or even the extension's local chrome-extension:// domain)
I guess YouTube could always block that domain from embedding videos, but if the extension allowed the user to set a custom domain from /etc/hosts, I'm not sure Google could stop it unless they forbid embedding on hosts that resolve to loopback address.
- duskwuff 3y agoA lot of videos on Youtube aren't embeddable.
