If you’re a YouTube user, you know that sometimes the videos you watch won’t play when you click on them. This is because YouTube is using a technology called " autoplay." There are a few ways to stop autoplay from happening on your YouTube account:
- Change your settings on your computer. On most computers, there’s a setting called “autoplay.” If this setting is set to “off,” then autoplay won’t happen.
- Disable cookies on your computer. If cookies are enabled, then YouTube will automatically add them to your browser when you visit the website again. You can disable cookies by going to the following website: www.aboutcookies.org/en/choose-your-cookie-policy/.
- Disable JavaScript in your browser. If JavaScript is enabled, then YouTube will not work properly and you’ll have to use another website to watch videos
How to Stop YouTube Videos from Playing While Scrolling
Start by opening YouTube and signing in to your account.
Scroll down to the bottom of your screen and select “History: On this page, you can see how many videos have played since you last logged in.”
Select the video that you want to stop playing and click on the “Stop Playing” button.
If you need help stopping the video from playing continuously, we recommend using a blocking software like Adblock Plus or NoScript.
How to Save Your YouTube Videos for Later
Start by opening YouTube and finding the video you want to watch.
Scroll down until you find a spot where the video won’t play anymore.
Click the “Stop Playing Videos” button in the top right corner of the screen.
Choose how long you want the video to stay stopped, and hit “Start Playing Videos.”
How to Select the Right Video to Watch.
Before you start scrolling through your YouTube videos, it’s important to select the video that you want to watch. This is so you don’t miss anything important. If you can, try and watch the video in the same spot where you started scrolling. This will help you stay focused on the video and not on the scrollingceans.
If you can’t find the video that you want to watch, make sure to use playlists or filters to help you choose the right one. playlists are great because they let you choose a specific number of videos at a time, which is great if you want to see all of them at once or if there are a lot of videos that need to be watched quickly. filters let you choose which videos to watch based on your interests or location. For example, if you’re in New York City and want to see videos about New York City, then filters might let you choose videos about different neighborhoods in New York City.
