YouTube high quality question - Off-topic

I was wondering when I click hq on the YouTube app what res does it go to. Does it go to 480p or 720p
Thanks for Any help

Depends on the quality the video was uploaded to Youtube.
In all honesty though, the different quality content will only be able to be played in the native resolution of your device either upscaled or downscaled.

loool definately 480p ... u have a hard time getting 720p yt to play even with 3rd party apps

Ok cool

720p videos

Hello,
Will be possible for samsung ace to play 720p videos?
Thanks
NO....! Hardware problem... Software cant make a miracle...
MoboPlayer
Try downloading MoboPlayer and then then MOBOPlayer codec for ARM V6VFP. It plays almost all videos. Try it, its too good.
Soft decoding is really slow and drains a lot. Don't really need the 720p anyways this is not a high end phone

yes, maybe some app will play 720p using software decoder, but it'll lags like crazy. so theres no point on trying to play it on underpowered device like ace, its unwatchable.
I play 720p video with oc-ed 903mhz on qqplayer, its still laggy

YouTube HD App?

Well, this is actually my first Android Phone, I've only used a Android Tablet before and my tablet had a YouTube App with an HD, not a HQ, function.
So my Question: Is there a YouTube HD App for android 2.3.5/6?
HQ kinda sucks on the note screen.
why use an app when you have a browser? just go on youtube.com, choose your video and choose the resolution for it there.

For some reason the newer version of the YouTube app does not offer the HQ option...so you will have to go back to the 2.1.6 version...
Find a jetvd apk, it's no longer in the android market, you can choose hd there and stream through your video player in hd (you can also use it to download youtube vids in hd) . HQ on the official app is only 480p no HD option so far. I also would be interested in hearing about any other apps that can stream HD youtube vids.

This is awesome, not a complete replacement for the youtube app but better than nothing and still a bit more comfortable than the browser
Jetvd gets to available options screen, I touch the thumbnail and nothing happens. I set a download folder and Im on wifi. So far jetvd sucks. J/k just cant get it to work.
Try Tubemate from the App Store. Dunno if its full HD but choosing the highest setting looks pretty cool on the Note, way better than the YouTube app. Being able to download vids is a nice bonus.

Guess I was referring to HQ. Tried I screenshot and the video didn't show for some reason. Shame because it was a good one

tubemate is good, it lets you download or stream in any resolution available for the video. I prefer to download the videos in 720p or 1080P and play back that way if I want to watch it again I keep it saving future bandwidth and it looks much better then HQ in the yt app which is probably only 480P.
You can view yt in browser in desktop mode and select resolution but going full screen generally is a pain and doesn't look as good as a 720P or higher download in tubemate. Best to get tubemate from the official site tubemate.net as there are dodgy versions around even been some bad infected ones on market apparently according to the aps developer.

HD player

I have used almost all custom roms but unfortunately non of these gives me pleasure of HD video (more than 720p) , I know it is not fault of rom something wrong in our phone hardware ....
Still I am asking question here , Is there any alternate for view HD video ???
Like strong kernel, video player or something like v6 supercharger....
Taking about video players non of video available in market like mxvideo ,mobo player BS player runs without lag HD video more than 720p ....
If someone having pleasure of HD video kindly share how???

I don't think our phone is capable of handling that high bitrate. A small clip @720p is the Max for our phones ....

It might have been possible because of lower quality / reduced bit rate. I have a YouTube 720p video converted to mp4 playing flawlessly on my phone

Can someone tell me why?

When i play movie on my incS the movie start to lag. My phone memory have alot of space more also my sd card. Any solution?
Yoo Momma Ass!!
In what codec is the movie encoded? What's the resolution of the movie? Since the incredible s doesn't have a very powerful processor, it's difficult for it to decode when the bitrate is too high. For example for hd or full hd videos

Since the resolution of our screen is 800x480, videos above 480p aren't worth it anyway.

Indeed. If feasible, just try to transcode whatever you want to play in a 'mobile ready' format regarding resolution and bitrate.
I managed to play streaming TV ( 576i, mpeg2, 8 mbit ) using MX Player but that's about what you can expect. Or of course 720p at a lower bitrate (since Inc. S can also record in that format).
you can use mxplayer it isthe best player for playing movies without any lag.

Play QHD Youtube videos on N6?

Has anyone figured out how to play youtube videos at a higher resolution than 1080p? If I open a youtube video that says its 4k, and tap on the settings gear in the app the highest option I get is 1080p. Any ideas?
I don't think the YouTube app has 4k capabilities yet
