YouTube has launched a complete redesign of its video pages and its video player, ensures simplicity and video discovery. And it removed the five-star video rating system. Currently the new design is opt-in,later it will be made default.
Many menu items and options have been removed.
The actual player has changed as well. No longer is there an “HD” button, but the option to choose your resolution, from 480p to 720p or 1080p HD.
- There is no longer a five-star rating system. There is now a “like” and a “don’t like” button, which YouTube says better reflects how users interact with their videos.
- Many of the options are now under the video. You can save items to playlists, share to your social networks and flag the video.
- If you click on the viewcount, YouTube video analytics will appear below. This was available before, but a lot more people should find this feature.
- Comments have been simplified and cleaned up.
- The “Broadcast Yourself” tagline has been removed from the logo, although the final decision on whether to remove it has yet to be made.
