I'd like the option to stop videos autoplaying, I don't want a random video to start playing after I finish watching something personally.

Also the continue watching field being full of things I've already watched seems an odd choice, I don't really plan on going back to watch them again in the near future.

I could swear that Will said that carousel(la) wasn't going to display if you had nothing to continue watching, but I'd have to relisten to the beta stream to be sure. I have nothing that I've not already finished watching in there, and it's annoying that it pushes the latest videos down the page.

I also echo how annoying I find autoplay. It was implemented poorly on GameSpot; I hope they make it so I can turn off autoplay permanently on GB, it's not a feature I want or need.

Yeah, I thought that was the case. If it was just some positional stuff, I wouldn't have bothered posting, but the menu hovers misfiring is irritating to say the least.

@Brandon: It's somewhat jacked in IE9 (which I'm stuck with at work).

No Caption Provided


The general layout issue isn't the big problem though. The real issue is that the menu hovers activate if the cursor is anywhere within the area where the menu would appear.

This means that if I try to watch any of the site's videos, I can't click play as the forum menu activates and obscures it.

I can work around that by resizing into the mobile view first, but wondered if this was fixable.

EDIT: Playing with it some more, the forum menu takes focus when I'm trying to select any of the profile dropdown - meaning, I can't switch styles or log out.

Return the replies tab please. Replies now use up too much screen real-estate, and when you've got a fast-moving chat going, it quickly becomes impossible to follow.

(Glad to see greater browser support with the code rewrite though)

Just to update, this seems to have fixed itself for me at least, with the CBS Care advert loading at those times.

I've been having this problem for the past fortnight or so, but it does seem to have worsened. I was thinking it was related to the adverts being served (I'd have more success with videos playing if they were prefaced by the contrejour.ie advert), but if paid members are also affected, that scrubs that idea.

I'm having the same problem. I also tried re-syncing my Xbox Live account information (by deleting the account and re-adding it), but it's now it's somehow unable to scrape information from Xbox Live. I don't know if that helps. "

Yeah, I tried that myself and am now sat at #6890 in the queue, having gone up 400 spots since this time yesterday.  At that speed, it'll finally resync my account in 2.5 weeks, which doesn't sound good.

You can get around the issue using IE8's developer tools to 'step over' the javascript error.
 
Suggesting people just switch to another browser is ridiculous though; in some circumstances that just isn't possible.
