“You can play as many videos as you like, the only limit is your hardware.”

Some of my GridPlayer Tips & Settings to enable/disable are located in the description below topics of the week.

Honorable Mention: IINA (The videoplayer I use when watching one video at a time) https://github.com/iina/iina

I mention a wide range of topics including:

- Youtube like button animation when a creator says “LIKE THE VIDEO” in the video

- “Skip Ad” Button is now “SKIP”

- The “Enshitification” of YouTube - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enshittification

- YouTube forked in a downhill direction when they got their new CEO (My observation & opinion)

- 8 Midroll ad BREAKS in a 21 minute video?!

- I hate the recent unskippable ad break

- On the bright side: Free with ads YouTube Movies have been getting better (Links to some movies below)

- Short form creators are BORING (some of them)

- I export in Pro Res & H.264 and watch through the final exports in GridPlayer

- “Open With” Gridplayer button on my Stream Deck

Notes about GridPlayer: (Settings to enable/disable)

- For Settings (Video)

— Aspect Mode: None

— Transform: No Transform

— Paused (checked) — start paused

— Muted (checked) — start muted (since you only enable sound on one of the videos, if you’re watching back two synced of the same video)

- For Settings (Playlist)

— Warn about unsaved changed (unchecked) — It wants you to save the set of videos you had as a playlist, this annoys me

— Seek Sync Mode (timecode)

- Right click the player window to access quick settings and settings menu

— If you have any GridPlayer questions please put them below

Every podcast episode except the latest one is set to unlisted, watch all episodes only in the playlist.
