  1. When streaming from YouTube in PotPlayer (the "Open URL" feature), the info bar that normally appears at the bottom is missing. I mean the bar that displays information like the channel name, upload date, the scrolling video description, and - most importantly - the quality options (like 480p, 720p etc.). This means I have no way of changing the video quality.

    I didn't change any settings. I have tried using my .reg backup file to restore the old PotPlayer settings back to when everything was normal, but the problem remains. I've contacted the PotPlayer support by e-mail but they just shrugged their shoulders.

    Hi, strange that there is an 'Export Settings' button but no 'Import Settings'. Same here tried restore settings via .reg resulted in nothing. Maybe use the save .ini file feature.

  3. Good news, it came back! I tried out some other media players for URL streaming, and perhaps they reinstalled some files that were broken. Or maybe it was YouTube API's fault and it just fixed itself on its own.
