videojs-vtt-thumbnails-freetube
Video.js plugin that displays thumbnails on progress bar hover, driven by external VTT files. Based on this JW Player spec. Note, this plugin currently only supports sprited thumbnails.
Forked from https://github.com/chrisboustead/videojs-vtt-thumbnails.git in order to be maintained for the FreeTube project (https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube-Vue).
Note: Plugin hides the default skin's mouse display timestamp on hover.
