    Thanks for small but very useful plugin!

    One thing – support for max res thumbnail as a choice perhaps would be great. I see it’s currently hardcoded to default thumbnail. I understand it may not be available for all videos. Therefore, it could be an option to be switched on.

    And an option for a custom thumbnail would be even better.

    Default youtube thumbnail doesn’t look that good on larger video containers like 1000px wide.

    As a workaround changing background image manually in block html works but it then complains that block is broken and repair attempt changes it back to default thumbnail.

    Thanks!

    Hi Armands @armandsdz,

    I have added a setting that allows you to load the high-resolution image thumbnail. However, there is no option to select an image from the media library as the thumbnail. You can use following CSS code to override the thumbnail image for your video:

    .selector-to-the-block .yb-player {
  background-image: url(your_url_to_the_custom_image) !important;
}

    Thank you again for your feedback and suggestion.

    Please informed that I have added support for custom image as video’s thumbnail in the latest version 1.0.5.
