SE Lecture Optimizer

About

This script suppresses the automatic preloading and buffering of all videos on the SE lecture page.

By default, all videos are prebuffered and even played at once. The first causes long waiting time before the site is usable and breaks slow bandwidth connections. The second causes high disturbance to the user.
