| Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | ytKARL | 12/15/11 7:41 AM | Hey everyone, Yesterday marked the last day of the channels and watch experiment, otherwise known as Cosmic Panda. Contrary to what some might have thought, Cosmic Panda was not the new version of YouTube to come, but just an experiment we used to t |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | RubenU | 12/15/11 8:34 AM | Well... I just want cosmic panda back, I always used 720P screen size and now I cant..... OR update youtube withe a fourth screen-size option ;) |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | Brennusbr | 12/15/11 9:31 AM | We need Cosmic Panda back! It was way better than this new look! Please, leave it as a optional layout! =( |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | Brainlazy | 12/15/11 9:50 AM | The new video size options are terribly limited compared to Cosmic Panda. My choices now are either postage stamp or fullscreen? Thanks for finding a way to make me not want to use your service! :| |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | Marstar | 12/15/11 9:54 AM | Well, that's nice YouTube, i can't watch my movies in 720p without fullscreening them and chopping their quality... -.- |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | harrison.n.hill | 12/15/11 10:22 AM | Bring back 720p screen size! I don't want to watch videos in fullscreen. 720p screen size was the greatest future youtube EVER made, and now you removed it. Well done youtube! |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | ytKARL | 12/15/11 10:33 AM | There's a widescreen mode that puts you in a Cosmic Panda type Player it's the button between the fullscreen and the default size on the Watch page (see screenshot). This size defaults to 480p - playback by default automatically picks the highest qua |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | harrison.n.hill | 12/15/11 10:43 AM | Guys, use these extensions: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/120564 - It will add player sizes and u can watch 720p size again http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/69740 - This will play videos always in 720p quality. Enjoy! |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | Brainlazy | 12/15/11 11:03 AM | KARL, you do realize that "widescreen mode" is still significantly smaller than the previously available extra large view in Cosmic Panda. I mean, you should realize this being a Google Employee after all? :( People are calling it 720p size becaus |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | BASiQ | 12/15/11 11:33 AM | We want Cosmic Panda back! New version sucks! |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | Thecarvlogger | 12/15/11 12:24 PM | Can youtube please allow us to pick the option to have the new setup(which looks the exact same as the old on) or have us use cosmic panda(the best youtube layout ever). The black background was so much better for watching videos and the setup was so |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | Stainlesssteele4 | 12/15/11 12:45 PM | I had no idea it was testing... well, I did, but I didn't think it'd go away. Can we have it back? Been using it for several months, and I hate the new/default layout.Cosmic Panda had no problems, and testing seems successful, so let youtubers have i |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | ytKARL | 12/15/11 12:57 PM | Yes, I realize it's smaller - it borrows the darkened view, which is the only reason I said it hearkens back to Cosmic Panda. I can definitely understand that having to use fullscreen for a high quality HD experience isn't everyone's preference - tha |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | Dragyrn1456 | 12/15/11 1:05 PM | Youtube is shit without Cosmic Panda, I hated having to use a really small screen size, even with widescreen. And the layout is bullcrap regularly, We want Cosmic Panda! |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | ytKARL | 12/15/11 1:14 PM | Good news for fans of the "720p size" player. We're actually experimenting with options for a 1280x720 player showing up, depending on your browser size. Thanks for your feedback! |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | comradeluigi | 12/15/11 1:26 PM | bring back cosmic panda! playlists were much better, comments were better, the layout was much better, the related videos were way Better, they look like shit now, seriously why didn't you make it the new layout? the one you have right now does not |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | comradeluigi | 12/15/11 1:45 PM | and why did youtube get rid of the hiding of the bar? |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | daleskill1 | 12/15/11 2:07 PM | I WANT MY PANDA BACK! |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | kunio | 12/15/11 2:38 PM | Please, bring Panda back, it was much better than standard interface!!! |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | BionicTenshi96 | 12/15/11 4:42 PM | Please bring Cosmic Panda back again, at least as an optional feature... It was so cool. |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | ytKARL | 12/15/11 4:43 PM | Cosmic Panda itself won't be coming back, but like I said in the OP, we learned a lot from the experiment, and you should expect a lot of that to be reflected in the site in the future. |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | kodychristian | 12/15/11 7:20 PM | Cosmic Panda was definitely a favorite of mine. There were three things that I found really useful. The first, of course, which was everyone's favorite option were the screen sizes. I enjoyed being able to view in any size I wanted. 720, definite |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | kodychristian | 12/15/11 7:35 PM | Also, I would like to amend a bit of what I said. Saw the 720p option for the new layout. I digg. |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | SilverXZ | 12/15/11 8:51 PM | I would be really glad to have the 720p player size back. |
| Re: Cosmic Panda Experiment Has Ended | ncpasan | 12/15/11 11:17 PM | Please we need Cosmic Panda back...... if you can give the user an option to switch bet |
