Iian K Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I noticed about a week or two ago that Higher Quality videos have become available. Quite nice :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/660444-youtube-in-better-quality/page/2/#findComment-589866214 Share on other sites More sharing options...
non.sequitur2 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Wow, the RA3 video sucks huh? It reminds me of a poorly acted soap opera.

blade1269 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Hey, Silly question, where do i add the string at the end or the begining of the video? Example (Screen shots) would be great, for us slow people Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/660444-youtube-in-better-quality/page/2/#findComment-590017794 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre S. Veteran Posted October 24, 2008 Veteran Share Posted October 24, 2008 Format : www.youtube.com/[video-id]&fmt=18. Often there's already a '&' in the adress, delete everything after it and replace with fmt=18.

AmericanConservative Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 It took me a long time to find an easy way to actually export and upload videos to youtube that would show the "Watch in high Quality" options. This is how to encode the video in Quicktime - its on the Mac but works on the PC as well.

The_Decryptor Veteran Posted November 20, 2008 Veteran Share Posted November 20, 2008 (edited) fmt=18 is outdated, the new hotness is fmt=22 http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=JnYyjwVWeHk&fmt=22 < Uploaded at 1920x1080 H.264 @ 6mbps, resized to 1280x720 Edit: Edit 2: Edited November 20, 2008 by The_Decryptor Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/660444-youtube-in-better-quality/page/2/#findComment-590154324 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangbang023 Veteran Posted November 20, 2008 Veteran Share Posted November 20, 2008 I tried a random video and fmt=22 did nothing to make a difference. I'm guessing it's still quite limited and I'd rather have a higher quality on all videos as opposed to the highest quality on only a few.

The_Decryptor Veteran Posted November 20, 2008 Veteran Share Posted November 20, 2008 Yeah, fmt=18 loads the iPhone/iPod Touch version of the video, which all the videos have been encoded into (Although depending on the source, that might not be higher quality) fmt=22 shows a ultra high quality version, but it needs to be encoded with the right settings (Same way you need to encode video with certain settings to get it to show the High Quality link underneath the video) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/660444-youtube-in-better-quality/page/2/#findComment-590154954 Share on other sites More sharing options...
