Cool idea. I'd like to see it with a darker tooltip on hover. The transparent effect is a bit...too transparent :)
If you don't like twitter bootstrap (for your css), you could use this: http://www.getskeleton.com/ It's light enough, and provide a good starting point.
Add colors, borders, and shadows later. Focus first on layout. Come close to screen, and look for details. Go a bit far away from your monitor, and look again the entire design. Sometime it helps to get a better overall view.
Thanks :D
Yeah, the tooltip layout is quite a controversial matter, someone hates, someone loves it... but probably more of the former than the latter. ;-)
The tricky part is that these grids have reactive behaviour on resize (actually I think the response to resize it's one of coolest features, in that the number of videos shown will adjust whenever you resize the browser window, so that everything still fits on the page).
So I always need to be able to compute on the fly how many items will fit on the screen, because if the window is smaller than its fullscreen size, then I can actually avoid to retrieve any data for videos that won't fit, and hence cut bandwidth usage and response time.

I think bootstrap is great... Also I was thinking about something like http://suprb.com/apps/gridalicious/ for the videos grids;
