Great solution (the last one), i was wondering how to do that to not be pressing HQ everytime i want to watch the big version. I have another mission to you, what about making categories for my favorites? you know, is a pain in the ass to look for a video if you dont know exactly where it is, thank you very much, im suscribing!
&fmt=18 = High Sound Quality, Good Video quality... Overall status (High Quality)
&fmt=6 this will make a Flash video, which will have Low Sound Quality, High Video Quality, Overall Status (Normal Quality)
You show the top which makes better sound, you are setting the framerates to 18 making the video overall better. High Definition will literally make the video bigger.
For expl, to understand the Difference between high definition and high quality watch my Everytime We Touch video vs this :)
hey Bucky, I wanted to say something that might be helpful. you might want to use more video tags, like "video", "quality", "HD" or anything else people who are trying to figure this out might search for in google! Thanks for teaching us!
shouldn't &fmt=18 still be added to some videos even if you change your settings to high def when available since that piece of code should force it to high def even when the option is not available?
Nice tips Bucky! Although I encounter problems which may interest you. I have a 10MB broadband internet connection and always have the "I have a fast connection. Always play higher-quality video when it's available" option selected. However, this video still came up with the low-quality version when I clicked it in my subscription vids. Most the time there is no "Watch in high quality" link either. When I added "&fmt=18" to the end of the URL it changed to the high-quality version. Why is this?
Haha exactly! I find it happens with some other videos too, Youtube needs to sort that out and make sure the playback setup/preference definitely works all the time when it's select.
Lol, i found out the third option 3 days ago (after making my account) by accident, and i already knew the first two. Anyways Propz on this vid since it should help out a lot of new youtubers. shouldn't &fmt=18 still be added to some videos even if you change your settings to high def when available since that piece of code should force it to high def even when the option is not available?

sergeidave 3 years ago
actually yes it does, but just barely, and only with a few selected vids, type in fmt=22 instead. Might work, might not.

&fmt=22 will only work if the video takes up all the space no black remaining
SomaVIII 3 years ago
Nevermind people, I read it on a website, didn't even bother to compare it, doesn't work, so far fmt=18 is the only thing that bumps up quality.
walkingtree5 3 years ago
Okay, but I know how to watch in real hd, instead of 18, put 22... tell me how that works out for you, the sound is not improved but the video is.
