Yeah I think this is how it should work too - aka a list of results not just one semi-random video. Nothing against the other solution but this is actually useful versus a novelty.

Nice job.

Thanks, exactly my thoughts.

Seconded.

Yeah, but there's something pretty compelling about having the video start playing as soon as you start typing. I agree with a comment in the previous thread that all the other implementation needs is a 'next video' button or key combo.

Cool but I see

function(a,b){return new c.fn.init(a,b)}

as a description of a lot of videos.

fixed. thanks for pointing it out.

It would be awesome if clicking the videos would open an embed on the right side of the browser, and optionally, auto-start the first video.

Great job :)

Added the embed part. Thanks for your feedback! :)

As far as I can discern, it almost exactly duplicates YouTube's search except it loads results on the same page and is a little faster (but not instant).

TO coder how many searches are for music videos or artist names; majority?

That's more what I expected when I clicked on the 'original'. I think a 3x4 layout would be more user friendly, I might add.
