New Youtube with Widescreen
Maybe because most videos on the site were originally uploaded in a ratio closer to 4:3 (the standard size of non-HD televisions), most videos are playing with horizontal black bars on the side. Youtube has changed the size and aspects of video player on its website.
“We’re expanding the width of the page to 960 pixels to better reflect the quality of the videos you create and the screens that you use to watch them. This new, wider player is in a widescreen aspect ratio which we hope will provide you with a cleaner, more powerful viewing experience. And don’t worry, your 4:3 aspect ratio videos will play just fine in this new player.”
The screen format is changed into widescreen aspect ratio with the width 960 pixels where 16:9 videos will be perfectly fit in. It is expected to give a cleaner, more powerful viewing experience.
