  YouTube Picture-in-Picture

  Another YouTube tip that some of you may already know...

  If you right click on a video you'll get this context menu...

  

  ...but if you move your cursor away from that menu and right click again, you'll get another menu...

  

  ...and if you click on the Picture-in-picture option, you'll get a little pop out, resizable, moveable video window that will remain visible and on top of other windows until you close the browser tab for that video, or the pop out player.

  NOTE : For small videos like the ones at WGT, you might have to fullscreen them first, so that there is room to display the second right click menu.

  I'll never make an ace. Can't ding it!

  Er, ok. Aces and dings are not connected by the way. Another thing is, I believe an ace is a hole in one from the tee, not from somewhere on the fairway. But keep trying because you never know when they're going to happen.  : )

  I agree with you Scott but I reckon wgt don't.   The shot was during a CTTH game and I think wgt do call it an ace if it goes in and add it to your HIO's if you finish the round.

  I'm sure you're right Dodgy. If I recall correctly at least one of my holes-in-one was from a CTTH game.

  I'm glad you said it DP . I have many of those . When it comes from the tee . It usually says HOLE IN ONE .

  None of those HIO's or ACEs in the CTTH's or the old BLITZes , Coins , Alt Shot , Match , Skins , practice   count on the HIO count . Those formats are not considered ranked . Or I would have over 200 .

  But they  label them with no consistency . Monday I had an ACE from the tee and Thursday I had a HIO from the tee .

  HIO's & ACEs ( if from the tee ) holed in RR's . Do count in your HIO count .

  I have the Hole in One Achievement completed, but I've never made a HiO except in CTTH, and there's no HiO in my stats.

  Goal's and Acheivments probaly count HIO's and Aces that are not RR's . Like Coins .

  The terms are interchangeable, Usually meaning 1 shot from tee to cup...with CTTH you only get one shot - if it goes in they call it an Ace. What else would they call it in that formats conditions? 

  BTW- you now also have Ranked HIOs and Non ranked game HIOs in your stats.
