YouTube Annoyance

Anybody elses YouTube doing this horrible bar at the bottom when you move your mouse down so much. It does it on Subscription videos and recommended videos. Incredibly annoying; anyway to disable it?

Doesn't do it for me - Must be a Google Chrome feature...

MarkST · 29 Jul 2010 at 13:01

It was doing it for me on Chrome this morning but once I turned "auto play" off it disappeared!

Mark.

Ot but youtube related is there a way to make a video auto replay/loop?

Macky · 29 Jul 2010 at 13:03

Tried turning auto-play off and it just keeps turning back on..

I was about to comment on a subscription video and it changed im like grr. I also just saw a button to turn of the annotation things

Is it as annoying as the pausing when full screening bug? No.

The annoying thing is that it isn't even a bug. It is intentional and I guess the majority of users will like it. :mad:

The bar has started to appear on Firefox for me now

I think it's becomes available if you start playing a playlist.

YouTube is getting so bloated.. it's extremely annoying. The only good addition they've added is HD.. I can't think of anything else.

Vimeo might even have a chance after all!

Yup, that's when it appears and when you play a subscription.

ABP code to block the bar:
youtube.com##DIV#quicklist-tray
youtube.com##DIV#quicklist-bar
youtube.com##DIV#quicklist-bar-container

Those bloody ads at the bottom of every video :mad:

You know they're going to appear because of the yellow marker so you have to wait until it pops up before you can switch it off.

Shifty, doesn't AdBlockPlus help? It works for me, I've not seen a single Youtube ad.
