Most of the Updates are great, especially the Insight Info, I have already altered some tags to get more hits. I would like to see more info on video ratings for each of my video's though, like average/top rating.
YouTube do nothing to stop rapists posting material which shows women being raped and beaten...the flagging feature DOES NOT work http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cv9jl296bjc http://www.youtube.com/user/theprodigyrocks
be nice to get some coverage for people doing tech shows in the uk like i do at therealgravity. i've been doing it with no budget for months - more viewers would be awesome. :)
In terms of concerns over videos, Mr W, I would like to direct you to the Policy and Copyright Guidelines section of our Help Centre: http://www.google.com/support/youtube/bin/topic.py?topic=10550 There you will find all of our policies, protocols and information on exactly how to go about reporting any type of content or behavior on the site, which you suspect may be in violation of our Community Guidelines: http://www.youtube.com/t/community_guidelines or our Terms of Use: http://www.youtube.com/t/terms. In this particular case, I should also point out that the footage you refer to has been shown in cinemas up and down the country, and so passed by the BBFC.
- Badly chosen featured videos - Cannot revert to classic view on homepage - Fullscreen now opens a new window, don't like it. - Videos with most views should go on homepage due to people tagging crap videos with sex for the hell of it.
So yeah, overall it was much better 2/3 months ago, updates suck.
When I clicked most viewed I wanted to see the most viewed videos MADE in the UK, I don't care what people in the UK like watching. The most watched list is now just got loads of things from the global most watched vids, and most of that is misleading rubbish like women showing off cleavageto get views.
The UK page has lost it's individuality. I just hope this comment makes some difference.
What's happened to the standard quality? Those of us who have uploaded larger files for the 'High Quality' choice find that the 'Standard Quality' (which embedded players have to use, no quality button available)is no where near as good as when we had to keep it under 100mb
I thought that this was a great idea as it allows users with fewer subscribers to make it on the subscribed all time list which makes it easier for users to get noticed.
Just leave it alone - every time I go to Youtube UK it seems some geek has made another unneccesary twitch to the system. Enough already, getting fed up with trying to navigate. If I start looking for something that begins with S - I do not want to be offered 'sexy or 'soulja boy' Duh!!! If ain't broke don't fix it.
Frankly, you guys have made too many changes, it was fine only a few months ago, and now you've made so many changes that frankly, no-one really wants. I don't know why you changed the video screen, it was fine as it was. And now look at the homepage, its disgusting, i have no idea where i'm going anymore.
Definitely a step in the right direction as I think we need more categories and ways of finding new videos. As someone else said, I'd like to see videos made in the UK as well as watched.
How about a featured around the world category, so we can see what other countries have featured.
Also, as the site becomes more saturated with videos, how about breaking the categories down further by county/state?
I'm having serious problems deleting old messages now. Whether i just delete each individual message or tag the whole lot and delete that way, there is something wrong. If i hit refresh on the browser or not they are listing.. 3 pages of messages and no way to get rid of them. Come on youtube, its messed up :/ It's telling me i have new messages, i click the link but none are shown, just the old ones. If i try to click the message after deleting it, it says its not there but they are all listed on the page anyway.
I just wish any of the videos I watch actually worked. 80% won't even start. I'm a computer buffoon, but most clips I watch go like this. 2 seconds, freeze, few more seconds, freeze, restart, freeze. I get there eventually, but very irritating. Take care, Nick.
It sucks! Why does it suck? Because the Video Game section isn't still in the Category section!
The more you guys keep changing the site's design, the more it gets ruined!
Also, I must have emptied my cache & cookies. So I lost the new design:/ I mean, my inbox design looked like the orgininal. Also..I don't like the new inbox design, where were all the sections merged???? I am happy with the original design.
What is this nonsensical change to reading comments about? It sucks big time. Another reason to start looking for somewhere else to play I think - not that losing the odd contributer bothers YT
I am not at all happy about the new Contacts General Messages area.. It was just right up til last week and easier to read . There is no way to know if Friends have read letters and You have altered most of the Channel Format that worked well .You should have left it as it was .up until April of this Year...
Since High quality has been available I cannot play in standard quality and Beta says "sorry this video is no longer available". Can you help? I have been contacted after posting in YouTube blog by others with same problem. kennygee07

My main dislikes with youtube at the moment are:
ReplyDelete- Badly chosen featured videos
- Cannot revert to classic view on homepage
- Fullscreen now opens a new window, don't like it.
- Videos with most views should go on homepage due to people tagging crap videos with sex for the hell of it.

No, no, NO! Bad YouTube!
