New YouTube Autoplay

[OoxTruExoO]

Forgive my lack of being bothered to locate the off-button, but does anyone know where I can locate the off-button? I watch videos through to the end, scroll down to read/write a comment and then a new video is playing because I've forgotten to "cancel" the autoplay. Also driving me mad is the fact that it changes to the "share" tab under a video when you're reading the "about" information. If you could tell me how to stop that also, I will name my left shoe after you.

That last part is irritanting indeed.
I hope somebody knows it

Thanks, but this doesn't work. I'm not sure if everyone has this yet, but when you watch a video through to the end, usually the video screen filled up with thumbnails of related videos that you could click on. Now, it does this, but it counts down 8 seconds until it autoplays one of those videos. So meanwhile, I'm halfway through typing a comment and the bloody page changes to this other video and I lose what I've already written, and have to navigate back to the video I wanted to comment on. I can't find an option within YT to turn off this feature...

That usually only happens to me when I watch something someone has put in a playlist. There's a toolbar somewhere that will have the little loop icon that most of us equate to a track-repeat function. That's YTs autoplay button. It'll probably be highlighted. I've seen the toolbar float over the bottom of the window near the comments, as well as either the top or bottom of the video itself. Run the mouse through there and see if anything pops up, if so check some of the buttons. I think one of them might be a settings type button, and I've seen the autoplay buried under there too. They're changing it so often it is kind of hard to keep up with. :/
