| I don't like new black pop-up thing at bottom of screen. Can I disable it? | JixMa2 | 7/29/10 6:37 AM | Hi YouTube. I don't like the new black pop-up Subscriptions thing at the bottom of the screen. Can I get rid of it? Can I disable it? It's very annoying that whenever I move my mouse close to that lower screen area, it pops up. Plus it takes up some |

Can I disable it? | Wulfman15 | 7/29/10 8:23 AM | Between this irritating pop up control panel, and how videos KEEP PLAYING when you search for a new video, YouTube has become a real "place to ignore" lately for me.

| Re: I don't like new black pop-up thing at bottom of screen. Can I disable it? | touristinexile | 7/29/10 9:04 AM | I imagine this is because you tube uses a ton of memory. All that flipping from one page to another is a lot of bandwidth. I don't totally hate the bar but I would like it to behave itself. First of all it should only expand when you press the exp |

Yes, this is a must -- in the least it should do that! But really the whole feature should be able to be disabled in the Settings so |

Can I disable it? | CamTheKitty | 7/29/10 12:35 PM | Dear Youtube, no one, and I mean no one wants or uses auto play, and the bar at the bottom should be an option that is default off. Also beta test once in a while before just implementing faulty features. I'm pretty sure I've turned off auto play lik |
| Re: I don't like new black pop-up thing at bottom of screen. Can I disable it? | MelodyFetishDotCom | 7/29/10 4:39 PM | I always try to give positive feedback, praise successes and shrug failures. But this will be an exception, this new bar is so terrible, it is where the users focus when scrolling down for comments, searches etc. and feels like your view is hindered. |

| Re: I don't like new black pop-up thing at bottom of screen. Can I disable it? | hertzog11 | 7/29/10 9:08 PM | Please enable your users to turn this feature off. You can click the "off" button when you watch a video, but when you go back to the home screen and go to a different video guess what pops back up? Autoplay! I understand the desire for innovation |

| Re: I don't like new black pop-up thing at bottom of screen. Can I disable it? | Irockman1 | 7/31/10 9:20 PM | Don't expect Google to fix this garbage. They don't care and they never do. You can use extensions to block the bar, but you still won't be able to disable the autoplay that the bar doesn't even allow you to disable in the first place. |
