Youtube.

So, I am having a trouble with some options in my computer I guess.

This is how I see youtube on my work computer and this is how I see the same page on my personal computer. Resolution of the work monitor is 1920 x 1080 (using w7 if I am not mistaken, haven't even checked actually) and resolution of my monitor is the same with w10. I can't make yt look the same on my personal computer. What could be the issue?

probably the zoom? dunno....try zooming in and out.

Be a bit more careful with the details My bad, that the one image is a bit bigger, don't know why, maybe because in work I took the screenshot with snipping tool. What I wanted to say with that, first of all, if you compare the images by identical size, you can see, that youtube icon is not larger in one of them, with the zoom youtube icon would've been larger, same with description of the video. And I can guarantee, that both of the screenshots are taken with no zoom at all. I tried out opting the video, quality of the video, theater mode, pretty much everything available, I simply can't make everything to be in normal size, it seems like a bit shrunk and it bothers me. I've been living with this for months and when I compare how it looks in home and how at work.. The fukas have like 10x weaker PC than mine xD

Are you dead serious? Do you see a single ad in the youtube? Jeez. If you don't know what is wrong then don't post at all. I don't need some random "PC expert" resolutions. I am quite familiar with "reinstall" and all of that. I could build you a PC twice as better for same amount as you could. And there are some things I can't figure out, but this kind of response have the same quality as saying, that I should use unicorn to un-g@y squirrel that lives under your floor.

i said i suppose
I saw it larger at 1st view but now i saw its possitioned differently in the page.
I got the same thing with forums at work and forums at home but its because of my monitors. At work i have it Wide(and i hate it) and at home i dont have a wide monitor type.
Now that u said the monitors have the same resolution well...i dont rly think its a Windows difference that causes it. Try having a look at work what exactly it's set in the resolution and compare with what u got home to see if there are any differences.

It could also be caused by the version of adobe flash player as well but 99% it's the monitor settings/resolution settings.

P.S. My youtube is the same at work as u got it at home xD

 

[Halfdanjal]

How do you think, could it be caused by me having 2 monitors at work? Still same resolution for both.

 

[Halfdanjal]

Any update? I really want to have the same huge video without enlarging it with zoom or shts like that at my home pc too.

is your monitor at work and personal pc have the same resolution? I have a personal pc that has a 1366x768 resolution and a same resolution as yours on my previous work and yeah thats how youtube looks like if you have a higher resolution settings.

I am certain, that both, the home and the work PC's have exactly the same resolution. No doubts about that. Basically everything else looks the same. Still can't figure out what makes youtube look smaller at home.

 

[Halfdanjal]

So, no solution?

 

[Halfdanjal]

I found out that the issue is hidden in video somehow having lower dimensions than in work place, I am not sure but I think that the same is with resolution, but how is that even possible if I use same yt account in work and in home..

 

[Halfdanjal]

Up. When pressing on video on youtube with right click and then clicking "Stats for nerds" I see, that in work it shows "Dimensions: 1280 x 720" and "Resolution: 1280 x 720@30", in home, obviously, lower, I don't remember exactly, I can update this post later with that info, but how is it possible if all the video options are the same? Does somebody have an explanation?

Maybe your Screen doesn't support the options that your graphic card provide.

My home PC is like 10 times better than the PC at work and monitor is just a bit better, but anyway
