Can I hide my favorites on Youtube from the other users ?

I have a normal Youtube account and I realized that everything I add to my favorites is visible to anyone. Can I hide it instead ?

On your channel page, click on "Videos and Playlists" tab and untick "My Favorites".

Do you know how to do this in the current YouTube version? – Vinicius Pinto Dec 27 '11 at 15:44
Answering my own question, you have to make the playlists private. – Vinicius Pinto Dec 27 '11 at 17:13

The Lukmans answer doesn't work already. I've found many different solutions on the web, none working - it seems that youtube is changing this very often. So the solution as of 7.4.2013 is this:

  1. open the list of your favorite videos
  2. on the top of the page, click "Edit playlist"
  3. above the list of the videos, tick "Make this list private"

That's it!
