YouTube Embed Code Customizer Tool

I created this cool little tool that let’s you take any YouTube URL and customize the embed code to remove things like the Ratings, YouTube Search Box, Related videos, etc…

AND it will configure your videos to display in High Quality or High Definition (if they are capable)!
