So far, the standard is two ads, but some users are already out of luck. -pered-video-propustit-ih-nelzja-9727fc2.jpg” alt=”YouTube will show 5 commercials before the video. You can't skip them” />

There are more and more complaints on the Web from users who involuntarily became participants in beta testing from Google. They noticed that the number of pre-view ads on YouTube increased from two to five.
The YouTube team unsubscribed in the comments that the so-called bumper ads should work in this format – videos up to 6 seconds long that cannot be missed. But, apparently, something went wrong during the setup: there are complaints that there are also long commercials.
It seems that so far the new ad format is being tested on separate groups of free YouTube users who have a Premium subscription he won't touch. Google also encouraged sharing ad feedback via an embedded form.
