What is the Seek Button on Youtube?
The seek feature on youtube is a yellow button that you can click at any time while watching a video on youtube. Even if you are watching a video from a channel that you have subscribed to, the seek feature will not work if you have the Off The Record Google Chrome extension installed.

The seek feature is useful on youtube because sometimes you might want to click on the video timeline a little bit ahead or a little bit behind what is currently playing. For example, if you are watching a video on youtube that is about 5 minutes long, you might want to click on the seek function at 7 minutes into the video. If you do that, when the video pops back up on youtube, it will start from 7 minutes in the video instead of from where it was before.
