YouTube has rolled out a new embedded video player which shows thumbnails of recommended videos within the player. You can play those videos from the player itself, without bring directed to YouTube’s site.

Thumbnails of recommended videos sit at the bottom of the player and have an effect similar to Mac OS X dock while hovering. You can either click on any one of the thumbnail to watch that video or click on the next / previous arrow bottoms located on the right and left side of the player to skip to the next or previous player.

You can get embed code and url of the video from the menu button. If you click the menu button, the video will resize to the upper left corner and the video will continue to play.
