<![CDATA[YouTube now shows a different player layout in Opera]]>For some reason, the video player on YouTube has changed in Opera, while other browsers still use the old player. What could be the reason for this, and how can I switch it back?

Well, if these are tests of a new player by YouTube itself, then there's nothing we can do about it.

By the way, I still have the old layout.

Before, the video player looked like this:

Besides the poorly designed volume button, the new player also lags, when the player interface is visible.

The only thing that seems different is the position of the volume button.
