Annotations, Player Size and Video Quality all in a Single Gear Button

 YouTube Annotations & Video Size Settings Missing


Google is working on UI for all of it's product. Latest in the trend is YouTube Video Player. As, per the news and what we see above, Google has changed settings panel in YouTube Player. They have removed the annotations and player size settings. The two are now included along with quality options. Earlier the gear button was used for the quality menu only.


Before that, there was an option to edit quality and setting at same place:

YouTube Gear Button for Annotations, Video Size & Quality

Now, the gear button is a single point access for Annotations, Player Size and Video Quality. Look at the following screen for an embedded YouTube video in a website. In this the Player Size is missing as the video is embedded in the website.

But when you watch the video in YouTube directly you will notice the Player Size option also. Like this:

There are mix reviews coming, mostly negative for the new settings option, you can follow them or post your comment  here:

"How come the video size button with the big box makes the video small, and the video with the small box makes the video fill the page, that just doesn't make sense to me."

"guys i loved the old one i have to make 1 click more for anything i need now, pleeeease go back to how it was before?"

"Quit hiding useful one click features in menus and calling more steps simpler.  Simpler to look at, but more annoying to actually use."

Facebook first tested the same feature in 2015 but was not made available for all desktop users. As of know it still seems to be in testing phase as I am not able to see this feature in the same MacBook for different browsers. Like I am able to watch the pop-out and scrolling video in Firefox browser but the same is not working in Chrome browser. The floating video option is made available through 2 options. One is a Video Pop-Out button in the current played video. You have to click on that blue pop-out button to get video moved to left hand side of the news feed. The pop-out video button is in white color when video is not playing. As the video starts playing it color changes to blue. Video Pop-Out Button in Blue Color The second option is scroll down so the current playing video is not visible in your screen, the video will Pop-Out automati...
