Youtube cinema mode preference
« on: September 14, 2019, 04:25:24 AM »
Hello,

I don't know why Youtube is not saving my preference for the video format anymore. I use to watch my video in cinema mode. Since I deleted cache or something, every time I close the tab and open a new one, video format will be in default mode. I don't understand because it use to save my preference before and now it's not doing it anymore. I remember I did something, I deleted history or something like that. What is weird is that I also use Youtube with the dark theme, but the dark theme will be saved in my preference no matter how many time I close the browser. Why is it only messing up with me with the format of video and not other settings? Normally, after deleting history, all I need to do is to put the video in cinema mode again only one time and it will be saved until the next history and caches cleanup.
Any clue off what happened that time???

Thanks for support!

I just did and found no answer to it. That doesn't answer my question. I was able to do it before clearing my history and caches. I doubt it's related to youtube. I also sent a reply to youtube in case am wrong. I don't expect a feedback from them since it was not on a forum.

Have you asked here?
https://support.google.com/youtube/?hl=en#topic=9257498
the answer I found is quote "When using YouTube on your computer, the size of your video player will automatically adapt based on the available space in your browser window."

i dont get it... this page suggesting extension for Chrome, Opera or Firefox. Am currently on avast secure browser in the avast secure browser Forum.
Unless chrome extension work for this browser I don't see how that will help. REMEMBER WHAT I SAID... BEFORE CLEARING CACHES EVERYTHING WAS FINE AND NO NEED OF EXTENSION.
