Changes in Youtube operations?

Is it just me or has Youtube changed how their video site works?
The new Youtube video window no longer has the ability to skip or move the video time. I am forced to watch the video from the beginning without the ability to skip forward or backward.

No, it works perfectly fine for me, but that’s weird. It could be a glitch in your browser, not displaying the usual control elements at the youtube site. What browser and OS are you using?

I was able to skip ahead or back on some random videos I just tried. Perhaps your experience applies to only some videos? Maybe due to a setting by the poster?

You are aware that some ads cannot be fast-forwarded?

I am currently using Safari with Mac OS 10.14.6

I will try Firefox and see if that makes a difference.
Appreciate the quick replies.

Thanks for the quick replies.
I restarted Safari and the operation went back to normal. Just a glitch and fortunately easily fixed.
I will do more testing before posting next time. :slight_smile:

I love it when IT threads end so well, quick and bloodless :). Special props for the OP responding and solving the problem on their own.
