YouTube introduces redesigned video player with Liquid Glass aesthetic [Gallery]

It appears that YouTube is rolling out a new video player design for its web experience, with a revamped layout for video controls. The new design features each UI element in its own bubble, resembling Apple’s Liquid Glass design language with transparent elements and rounded designs.
