So now you watch a video then immediately after some new random video starts playing by default. I don't want videos forced on me. I want to decide what I want to watch on Youtube thank you very much.

It's always something with them - it's like they work to make the Youtube experience more annoying. (For example before this they decided the description should disappear.)

You can disable auto play but you have to do it every time.

IMO this new auto play Youtube has forced upon us all really sucks. Another annoying hassle it's users are stuck with like it or not.

End of rant.

Hi Josie

That's not happening for me.

After I watch a video, a number of other 'topical' videos are displayed on screen (usually 12), and there are more suggestions down the RHS, but nothing starts playing unless I make a selection.

I'm using Firefox as my default browser.

Where do you disable your Auto-play from?

Best

I'm also using FF but I'm experiencing Josie's problem. Trying to link someone to a single video results in an entire playlist which may not even be related to the intended video.

Josie, just a thought. Why not try clearing your cookies and see if that fixes it?

I’m using Chrome. If I open a song in one of my playlists, it auto-plays all of the songs in that list until it’s manually stopped.

If I open a random video that’s not in one of my playlists, it plays just that video and stops and then suggests other videos.

I’m not sure but I think it’s been like that for quite a while.

Spooky. Now it's gone. I just hope it stays gone. LOL!

If you get it you'll know by this little button you haven't seen before that appears on the right toward the top that says autoplay when the surprise video pops up. If you hit it fast enough you can turn it off for that video. It doesn't stay off. You have to manually turn it off each time. It has nothing to do with playlists. It's a new feature that Youtube started rolling out last fall and I just got it a few days ago. So I did a search and saw mostly complaints like mine. I hope it stays gone from me.

Mine disappeared now too. Maybe they had too many complaints. Let's hope.
