#Video Player
By the way, @staff is changing the video player and photo viewer on the mobile app to the one from Tumblr TV. As a result, they have made the abhorrent decision to remove an important accessibility feature in order to TikTok-ifying Tumblr. You can no longer zoom in on photos. Or so I thought. Because the visually impaired are now second-class users to the Tumblr Staff, they just decided to make it harder to zoom in on photos.
So, for all of you who, like me, find the pinch-to-zoom feature on Tumblr invaluable to read and view photos, you now have to:
Tap the Photo > Tap the “more” button in the description > tap the photo again
This will open the old photo viewer (for now, anyway) which was formerly one tap away. It will grant you all the former features of the old photo viewer, including the ability to zoom in.
EDIT: if you’re seeing this on your For You Dash or some other non-reblogged method you will see this edit. Before reblogging and commenting on this, there is addition information in the replies. I have replies disabled, so I am the only person who can add them. I’ve added addition info, as well as an update. Please read them. TLDR: many others, and myself, are now seeing it’s fixed. Many others are not. It may be a roll-out fix from the back-end. Be patient and wait to see if it’ll make its way to you.

Tumblrs video player has degraded past the point of reason for me.
For a while, a beautiful while, we had pause buttons. We could scroll along the video timeline. We could change the orientation. Such luxury!
Then I lost that beautiful pause button. The scrolling became almost impossible. The orientation. It was locked.
Then it slipped further. I could click a video and wait an hour and it would never load. Instead I must click it, escape it, then click it again to view its treasures. There was no explanation, and no pause button.
And now. Now it will never play if I click it. The scene freezes, performance anxiety and broken code rendering it still forever. I must escape it and then carefully try to unmute it to see it’s bashful wonders.
But I remember. I remember that for a brief golden time, it worked. I had a pause button, and a working video.

Wtf is wrong with tumblr’s video player since the last update? Why is every social media determined to create the most cursed ways to have video content. Just let us post a video and let people click on it and it will play if they want to watch it!!!!!!!!! @staff whyyyy

HOLY SHIT YOU CAN PAUSE THE NEW TUMBLR MOBILE VIDEO PLAYER
it's just extremely stupid!
when a video is fullscreened, press and hold on it for about a second. the video will pause and a play button will appear in the middle.

Anyone else frustrated with the new tumblr video player??? The scrolling thing is fine whatever, my main problem is that when I'm listening to music any video will immediately boot my music and I have to go back to Spotify to play it and I never had to do this before?????

@staff why is the new video player back!
I thought you came to your senses and quarantined it to the fucking "Watch it" thing.
And again, I can't zoom by double tap on images?! Just keep that size away from me!
If someone's forcing you to do it, at least give us a fucking legacy toggle, so we can go back to the old way!

Windows Media Player 11 – good friend, who introduce me to Star Trek
Tumblr media
So, I have a time to remember WinAmp. And it is time to remember and one more friend. As I can say, when applications – are your friends. I remember application Windows Media Player version 11. So, lots of time, during Windows Xp age, I spent into this program. I watched movies and listen to the music. I watched lots of movies in those days. And it was a time I discover to myself cheap and easy in use  internet. And video becomes a part of my life. It become a next step after vhs and dvd discs.
Tumblr media
So, this way I open for myself a great tv series -Star Trek. And I become a big fan of this universe. I watched Star Trek Voyager, original series, Next Generation.
So, this application also is connected with introduction into Star Trek universe for me, it helps me to meet Star Trek in my life. And also, a Star Gate. Tv serial Sg-1. I watched a lot of regular movies too.
Tumblr media
It is so great that Windows Media Player 11 is inside of system Windowes XP, it is built in Windows Xp. It is very good and exciting application. It has all you need. And music. And visualizers. And video. It even can to copy a disk. Visualizers in Windows Media Player 11 is a standalone song. Standalone theme. There are lots of them. And you can watch them for a long time. And it is like a journey. In to a world of emotions, maybe. And colors. As I think it old days.
Tumblr media
And mainly this program is enough for use with media files. Video and music, it is very big application. Interesting visual form. You can change it. So, it also has a different visual themes. But I find only standard theme in version 11. But it works very good. And I remember how I have fun with themes in age of my Pentium 2 machine. And it has another version of program. But program is still the same.
So, it is retro media memories.

@staff jesus christ please the new video player on mobile is so bad. you took away everything that was good about it? why is there text over the video now that cannot be hidden, why cant i use the progress bar at the top to skip parts of the video, it makes no sense for a VIDEO PLAYER to not do that. it feels genuinely like a hostile design
