I modified Nibbler's youtube mod for MotionBox embedded video. It would grab the thumbnail directly from motionbox, and the theme would display the object embed. I also used ImageMagick's composite to add a reel/film strip overlay on the generated thumbnail to distinguish videos from photos.

Because MotionBox doesn't have any API or any practical URLs (in case of protected but embeddable videos), each embed/upload uses a pair of input text in the upload page: one for the video id and another one for the thumbnail URL. This saves the user from having to create an XML or a stub file.

If anyone's interested, let me know and I can post the code changes.
