Have any youtube video in high quality!

[drawnzer54]

Just add "&fmt=18" to the end of the link (without the quotes) and it will make the video surprisingly higher quality o_o

Comparison:

Without : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMtbplem4Hs
With :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMtbplem4Hs&fmt=18

If you already know about this, Good for you but I just found out and thought I'd share :\

I never saw this before. Sick shit!
Now I can watch all my videos in High Quality!

It's part of their system that decides on what quality of a video to send you based upon your internet connection speed. Something they've been working on for quite a while.
You can, as said here, force a quality level with the URL, or get a firefox add-on that makes the higher-quality video forced

When something has already been posted that's not really a valid excuse. Did you even attempt a search? They also have about 300 videos made for the purpose of showing the quality difference.

I remember this was posted when it was first found out, at least for the public. This guy was all panting in excitement.

I think it was Serix.

it will only make the video high quality if a high quality version uis available, otherwise only the standard quality one will play (only few videos have high quality versions)

What's the add-on called?

Not true, the video I used as an example didn't have an option to view it in high quality.
