Improve YouTube Video Quality
Posted by Dan Romanchik on Sep 12, 2008 in Website Advice |
Many YouTube videos can be played at higher quality by making a simple change to the URL used to access the YouTube page. Just modify the URL in the address bar by adding “&fmt=18″ to it. The visual difference is quite noticeable.
If you are posting a link to a YouTube video, you could choose to include the “&fmt18″ right in the link. Note that YouTube users can also set a video preference in their YouTube account that determines the video quality they see normally.
