Google is testing a new experimental desktop player for YouTube. The HTML5 player features a transparent control bar that hides when you're not using it.



Here's how you can try it out yourself.

● While using Chrome, click here to open YouTube to a video. Don't forget to subscribe to iClarified's channel while you're there :)


● Right-Click or Control-Click on the webpage and choose Inspect Element from the popup.


● Choose Console from the inspector window that appears.


● Enter the following command into the console document.cookie="VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE=Q06SngRDTGA";




● Refresh the page
