I would like to see/request a tabbed block about 800px X 350px or so that can look up youtube videos on forum, in the block it would display a thumbnail type image 200px X 175px 4 across in 2 rows, so a total of 8 previews, would also have a black tinted/transparent block on bottom of video preview the same width as thumbnail but only 50px height to display video title.
The 2 tabs would be "recently added" and "most viewed" and grabs the thumbnail previews accordingly and when you click thumbnail it directs to the thread/post where the video is or if possible, open video in a scaled window.
If possible arrows to scroll on each side of block to cycle through video thumbs, like a carousel.
This would be universal maybe for use in portal blocks or custom templates and stuff.
If the "most viewed" tab would be to tricky to do, could also maybe give the user a way to edit their own tabs to assign to a category. So that only videos in that category are shown when the tab is selected.
EDIT: I just whipped up a example in photoshop of what I would like it to look like.
