Just found this out today...

normal, "busy" interface:

almost full screen, allowing you to enjoy a "full monitor" viewing of a video, while your clicks on the other monitor won't make the YT video shrink:

(hitting F11 in your browser might make it even better)



same result as clicking the diagonal up arrow (top right corner) -- but sometimes that arrow isn't there. geeky/manual URL change ftw.

YouTube (or Flash in general) is starting to piss me off. I'm running 64bit Windows 7 and Flash has this annoying habit of getting stuck. So as annoying as slow 'Tube is it's WAY more annoying when it just stops for no good reason mid-playback.

Lots of others have this problem and I've yet to hear a satisfactory cause or solution.
