Fixed a bug where a next video was getting a "cued" event out-of-expected-order.
Added the video-info.js helper package for loading information on videos. It still needs documentation.
Started improvements for playlist-helper.js, to have ease-of-use functionality inside the returned helper object.

Version 0.4.2

Sun, 04 Oct 2009 00:00:00 UT

2009-Oct-04: Version 0.4.2:

Added the ability to show videos in High Def and High Quality. The new "quality" parameter on the video object can be set to "hd" or "hq", for high definition (1024x768) and high quality (480x360) respectively. Not all videos may honor this.
Each video can also specify the desired size. If the PlaylistObject has "allowResize" set to "true", then the video's "height" and "width" values will be respected.
