Please Fix the HD Video Playback
Auto-HD is a pain and doesn't really work. Please just let us decide what quality to watch the video in. It works for YouTube and Vimeo. This clicking a button that seemingly does nothing and then waiting for it to randomly decide to switch to HD is annoying and usually only switches halfway through, or right at the end of a video.

Redesign and Improve Video Player
Please redesign your video player or add some features to it like the ability for the time bar at the bottom to auto hide itself after a couple of seconds along with the mouse when in fullscreen (it's not true fullscreen when that bar is always in the way and blocks some of the video). Increase load/buffer speeds. Add ability to select another video from the same page without having to load a whole new page. A better way to increase/decrease volume levels. A whole new redesign would be great but adding some new features would make me happy! :)

Video autoplay feature
When I disable autoplay feature in a video, I want it disabled for every video at all times until I choose otherwise.
Its very annoying when I watch a video and quickly scroll down to read the comments and the next video loads directing me to another page.

Videos autoplay when I click on "articles"
When I read IGN I open several tabs at a time careful to avoid "Watch!" or "Video" because I want to read other articles first and watch videos when I have more time. However, the problem is that out of nowhere I'll hear a video start to play but not know where it's coming from. I have to go through the tabs to find the video with no indication that the page I clicked on opened an auto-playing video.
I would consider this idea completed if videos didn't autoplay or if all articles that linked to these videos had a…

Add CC "Closed Captioning" or English Subtitles
I have been a fan of IGN for a very very long time and I have waited patiently for them to someday add CC (Closed Captioning) or English Subtitles for the Deaf or Hearing Impaired on videos such as interviews, Daily Fix, Conversations, Weekly Wood and etc. We don't need to have CC for video game trailers but it would be nice to have it available. If Youtube, MTV, HULU, Netflix and many other amazing video sites could add the ability to enable/disable CC or English Subtitles then couldn't IGN do it as well? I know IGN can do it.…

I don't enjoy your new video player.
I'm not a huge fan of the video player. Every time I click to full screen the display gets all pixelated and turns green. This has been the exception of every video I've watched on the site for the few months since you've changed the videos.

its really hard to get the bar at the bottom of the video player in fulscreen. it would be better if you made it like youtube where it disappears when you leave the mouse alone.

Basically change up, your video player, because some it works, and for others like me, it doesn't.

Quick aceess video downlaod links
Please post download links for all videos. Some recently have only been available for streaming which requires a fast internet connection (4 HD) and lots of usage allowance, which for many isn't always available.
I view a lot of HD ign videos so it's easier for me to copy the download links to a download manager and let them download over night (when I get free data usage) then play them as playlist in a media player connected to my TV when it's convenient.
It would also be easier if you displayed the video download links, including HD in the…

Video quality selection
Ability to select video quality like on YouTube. Just make a menu that we can click on, and choose 240p, 360p, 480p, etc..., instead of automatically choosing the highest quality. Some of us don't have fast internet and are perfectly happy to watch a video at a lower quality so that the playback is smooth. Thanks for your hard work for the site!

Use a standardized video system
I am running Windows 7 64 bit, with Internet Explorer 9. In the last 6-10 months I have not been able to get your videos to go past the loading circle. This is exclusive to IGN. Every other place on the web shows videos for me without problems. I implore you to fix whatever it is you are doing different than the rest of the world and use something standardized for videos!
Thank You.

The Video Preview Channel
I really miss the "Video Preview" channel where I could catch up on all the upcoming games that I would consider purchasing. Also, I noticed that sometimes not all of the previews submitted by the editors actually made it onto the channel (like the Resistance Burning Skies preview that I am currently watching. It would be great if the channel made a comeback in the Video section and was regularly maintained.
