I would like to know how can i play HD videos on youtube like on a normal PC where we can choose to play 720p videos on youtube instead of 360p..I know there is this HQ button but the quality is still very bad..
Not sure how to do it with the andriod app but I open youtube with the browser as a desktop site so I can play it at 720p

i have search and installed multiple packeages and the youtube panel, but i have one issue my xperia cant play videos in high res mode, can someone help me out please?
CorePlayer streams YouTube vids with perfect quality.
can a G1 play videos from google video? I tried a couple but no success. we all know that the phone can play yourtube videos just fine, so I was wondering what's the different between videos on youtube and video on google? aren't they both streaming videos?
i think when google bought over youtube, they moved all the videos from google video to youtube.
Is there a way to play HD video (720p) on the Nexus One? I have tried some apps off the Market to play these videos but it comes up laggy. The file I was trying to play was an .mp4 file. The default Video app can't play mp4 files and the Market apps lag when playing it. Anyone successfully have HD video playing without lag??? Also, is there a recommended format/codec for the Nexus One?
It's not the resolution of the video per se, but rather the bit-rate that would be causing playback to lag. Bear in mind that 720 is unnecessary anyway as the phone is effectively 480 in landscape.
Use the free software Handbrake to re-encode to a more appropriate bit-rate and resolution.
Thanks. I will use FormatFactory to lower the nitrate.
I'm also a fan of Half Life 2 too.

Yes, It is possible to play 720p videos on nexus on. Actually its chipset supports. you can use mxplayer, it's my favorite player; also, you should convert your video to .mp4 and use H/W decoder. H/W decoder is not supported for other formats like flv.
ok, so youtube works, but HQ doesnt. how to fix?
We can't play hq videos on the Hero anymore. I'm just glad we can play standard vids.
Is there a way to force YouTube to play at least 480p by default?
Even on 4g it plays at 240p or 360p and takes forever to change to 480p..
Any ideas on what I can do?
Do you have unchecked the option in youtube settings that allows for HD videos only via Wi-Fi? When I try to play any video via 3G it normally plays at 360p but i can manually change that to 480p and after this every video is played from start at 480p until i close app. Whatsoever, probably there's no option to make this setting default and active after the app is closed. You can try to use different app to play youtube videos.
