Youtube wide

Could you NOT?

fucking won't play from Tapatalk, and when I hit open in browser, that's fucked, too because of a plug in.....

If people want to see your video big, they can open it in you tube with one goddamned click.

Nope,

3 clicks to see it on youtube, actually 4 if you count hitting play first.

I also don't watch wide youtube videos. Way too much trouble to get to them.

If a wide youtube video gets a bunch of positive comments I might look for a device that will let me play them, but it's a lot of trouble.

A lot of Youtube videos are useless in the small format because you can't see what's going on, can't see detail. It's exacerbated by the fact most of them are shot by armatures who are lucky to get the subject in the frame, or shot on a phone with most of the screen blank and a tiny picture in the middle.

Maybe post them in both regular and wide and the reader can click on the one they prefer.

Regular YouTube videos are smaller than a playing card on my monitor.

lumberjim · 12-02-2015, 02:09 PM

So hit the full screen button, m8

glatt · 12-02-2015, 02:28 PM

This is what I see on my phone with the wide ones.

When I am at work, I can see the preview just fine, but I'm not supposed to watch videos at work, so I don't watch them there either.

I still don't know what that guy is fine after doing.

And if you hold down on the post, you can pick 'open in browser' from the 3 dots on the top right, but then you get a 'you don't have that plug in' ... And then you say 'fukkit'

I don't have an M8 button.

And, anyway, that doesn't work til you get to the YouTube site.

It's a crapshoot - some videos can be full-screened from the embedded video, and some can only be full-screened from YouTube's site.

xoxoxoBruce · 12-02-2015, 04:11 PM

I don't think it's a crapshoot, I've found that the small ones won't embiggen, but the wides will.

lumberjim · 12-02-2015, 05:38 PM

I said fukkit.

You can listen to the advice being given to you about how to reach a wider audience, or settle for fewer people seeing what you care about enough to post. Your choice.
