You can take a look into the source code of VideoJS. You can also use Flash instead for lesser browsers (which VideoJS has a fallback for).

Or, you could simply use VideoJS (there is even a YouTube skin for it). :)

An online video player can be developed easily using Adobe Flash or Flex. However, if you are targeting newer browsers, I'd suggest you use the HTML5 video tag. Link here and explanation here. Youtube has also beta'd HTML5 video at http://www.youtube.com/html5.

Good luck!
