@kuudora, The panel on the left seems smaller as well — can you confirm whether or not you’ve simply zoomed in on the page? You can check by visiting [Youtube.com](http://Youtube.com), letting the page load, then checking the main menu and confirming that the `Zoom` value is set to 100%. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/brave/original/3X/c/6/c60c16bc9833540bdedaa9a4ee664c863cf0f247.png) ---

Thanks for mentioning that, I completely forgot to say that in the post. I am using zoom 90% most of the time and did also test putting zoom back to 100% which did unfortunately not restore the old size. Here is a screenshot of the regular 100% zoom on brave ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/brave/original/3X/e/5/e503e4c0955274d7e8c076400a8c2cdaf0fa3607.jpeg) ---

Thanks for confirming. In that case I’m actually not sure what’s going on here. I am curious if you try visiting Youtube in a Private window, do you still see the same issue? ---

It appears that I do not get the same issue in a private window: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/brave/original/3X/e/e/eeac01d3e0af204c73874fc8df4215ce2a5d26be.jpeg) ---

From this information I made up the conclusion that it would be a youtube issue that is causing this. So what I did was log into a different account on brave and the videos returned to their original size. I even logged into the same account that was previously on brave on another browser to really make sure and the videos were smaller on the other browser. From this I can confidentially say it’s an issue with my youtube account and not Brave. I will take this to youtube now instead, thanks for helping me narrow it down to this. 😃 ---

No worries! Good work sleuthing it out — hope you’re able to find an answer as to why it happened to begin with 👍 ---
