When you click a thumbnail image on the Yahoo! Video results page, you go to a page containing additional information about that particular video. This page contains either:

• An embedded player window hosted by Yahoo! which plays the video.
• A thumbnail with a large "Play" icon, indicating the video will launch in a new window from an external web site. (That site is indicated in the text on the thumbnail next to the Play icon.)

What you see depends on whether the video was uploaded by a Yahoo! user and hosted on Yahoo!'s servers, or whether the video is hosted on an external web site. In each case, you see similar information surrounding the player window or thumbnail.
