    Now please make it so that you have a setting in the playback quality to "Always watch HD and HQ videos when available" so I can stop having to click on the HD button.

    So is 1080p 4mbit/s since 720p is 2mbit/s?

    How much more processing power do you think is required to actually be able to playback the 1080p quality?

    I've been uploading 720p videos at my techvideoblog.com since 2005, I guess I'll have to consider recording now in 1080p and spend twice as much time uploading the HD quality videos.

  25. Nintendo Maniac 64November 12, 2009 at 5:27 PM

    ...hey what the crap, why did you guys lower the audio quality of 720p, and by extension now 1080p is lower than 720p used to be!

    720p used to be ~232kbps VBR AAC, but now it and 1080p are nearly the same as 480p!

    Why should we have HD videos with SD-level audio?

    Awesome!

    As part of this, will you also be adding support for uploading and processing large 1080p HD video in avchd (.mts, .mtb) format? I've been able to upload smaller files in this format (.mts) but uploading of a 7 minute, 860GB file in this format failed repeatedly.

    Youtube also doesn't support .mtb at all (.mtb is the format JVC Everio's software saves edited .mts files in).

    Put me down as another user wondering what bit rate will be used for 1080 content. Also how will the anamorphic formats be handled, eg 1440x1080, 1888x1062, etc?

    ReplyDelete
  34. CharbaxNovember 12, 2009 at 7:31 PM

    My guess is 1080p will be encoded and streamed at around 4mbit/s to keep the same quality per pixel ratio of the current Youtube 720p 2mbit/s contents.

    This is very good news. Well done for the upgrade. The question... AVCHD output max 1080i. Those interlaced videos are going to converted to 1080p or users must upload 1080p to get 1080p playback on YouTube?

    ReplyDelete
  37. Happy BearNovember 12, 2009 at 8:24 PM

    1080p is only going to suck up more of the bandwidth that you don't have. So many videos these days, including non-HQ/HD ones, take FOREVER to load. The existing quality you have now is fine, adding 1080p is only going to worsen the experience for everyone. Add more bandwidth/servers before releasing this! In theory it sounds good but in reality it sucks :P

  43. AnonymousNovember 12, 2009 at 9:53 PM

    Very nice, ive been waiting for this. Unfortunately, since there are over twice as many pixels in one 1080p frame as there are in a 720p frame, it it going to be buffer hell for people unless they have VERY fast internet. (At least 10 MBPS)

    Also, full HD cameras are very expensive.

  44. NevermindNovember 12, 2009 at 11:01 PM

    WHEN are you going to upgrade the sound?

    Your instructions note you can only upload 44khz

    at the very least you should broadcast in 48k, 32 bit
    ideally up to 96K 32 bit (dont if that part is applicable or not)

  46. Nintendo Maniac 64November 12, 2009 at 11:46 PM

    Glad to see I'm not the only one worried about the sound, but don't expect 32 bit since very few if anything can playback at that. However 24 bit is definitely possible, but they really should fix the bitrate first. I mean really, ~124kbps AAC? Really? Shouldn't we be using near-lossless for 1080p, if not pure lossless?

    And for the user that asked me earlier what bitrate I'm uploading at: pure lossless. Lossless 32bit color video and 44.1KHz 16bit PCM audio.

  47. Nintendo Maniac 64November 12, 2009 at 11:49 PM

    Oh, though I should say that my most recent audio-videos had audio quality @ 96KHz 32 bit float PCM (they were exported MIDIs with a very high-quality soundfont)

    So um, when are we going to be allowed to have video files that are longer than 10 minutes?

    And why are my videos always cut off by a few seconds at the end?

  49. Nintendo Maniac 64November 13, 2009 at 12:16 AM

    If it makes you feel any better, YouTube actually supports up to 11 minutes. They've already said years ago that the ~10 minute limit was to reduce copy-righted content, since that's what apparently the majority of the videos that long were.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Nintendo Maniac 64November 13, 2009 at 1:38 AM

    I just realized that the lack of higher-quality audio is even sillier than I first thought. With YouTube throwing MEGAbits at higher-quality video (maxing out at >9mbps?!), they can't even spare just 200 more KILObits for audio? Really now? REALLY?!

    I wouldn't have so much beef with this audio stuff IF THEY HADN'T LOWERED THE QUALITY FROM WHAT IT WAS (~232 VBR for 720p)

    And I forgot to put my vote in for higher samplerate as well! 96KHz 24bit audio for at 1080p when the source supports it would rock.

    And what about 60fps videos? I mean the freakin Nintendo 64 could render games at 60fps (F-Zero x), and here we are with our 1080p HD videos and we're still using 30fps. Hopefully this comes in the future (next year? since 1080p should be the highest quality available for quite a while).

    You have the money to upgrade to 1080p
    WHY DONT YOU HAVE THE MONEY TO UPGRADE YOUR SERVERS.

    I have 15mbps and cant watch a damn video in normal quality because so many people are on hogging bandwidth. How ever, for example 2:00PM EST, it seems like a time when most people arent on youtube and it runs in HD like very FAST!.

    So basically, this feature is useless, because I cant fucking use it because you cant upgrade the damn servers and get more bandwidth.

    Thanks for nothing. I hope more people leave YouTube.

    algi, even if the source is interlaced, only big-screen CRTs can actually play an interlaced signal directly. All modern screens (plasma, LCD, OLED, etc.) can only display in progressive. When playing an interlaced signal, they actually convert it to progressive so that it can be displayed on-screen properly.

    Dear YouTube, PLEASE take a reality check. For most people the 720p is already causing performance issues, the Flash player is bad, and is stuttering on even high end setups, and your bandwidth can't keep up as it is.

    After uploading and analyzing about two dozen videos of various formats and frame rates, I've discovered that they all get encoded to 29.970 fps now. Why do this and not keep their native frame rate? I didn't see any issues with playback like sync or frame blending, but I only used a short 1 minute clip. After looking at lots of other 1080p and 720p videos uploaded recently, most are 29.970 also. However, some are still 23.976 or 25.000, but very few. Please keep the frame rate native to avoid issues with quality and sync!

    Cool! But flash technology (plugin) is not too good for this. I hope you are considering open video format like that from html5 with "video" tags. I's now supported by Mozilla Firefox 3.5, and can be easily integrated into other browsers, as it's open :)

    If you're in Australia where broadband is slow, HD is just an incredible pain in the behind, taking ages to download.

    And worse to upload since the upload speed is often about a fifth of the download speed.

    ..an update to our speeds is on the cards though, I just hope it still costs $50 a month.

    Yes, 1080p will serve high bandwidth customers but for us who are stuck with pricey 256kbps bandwidth here in India we cannot even see the lowest of the lowest bandwidth video.

    Hence a suggestion, along with different format and speed of videos, have an audio stream of the video be available (min 32kbps, max 128kbps) for us to listen and enjoy.

    Nintendo Maniac 64,

    Many people would be happy if an 1080i video could be translated lossles into 1080p. If you display 1080i in 1080p without deinterlacing, the edges become ragged. So it's only technically 1080p, but effectively 1080i.

    (But when I posted my first comment, I didn't realize that there culd be cheap 1080p camcorders, as my mind is all-about half-professional ones.)

    Noticed the following...
    "Have an HD camera? We would love to see your awesome 1080p videos! Be creative and choose subjects that really show off the beauty of your camera. We will run the best examples on our homepage in a future spotlight."

    How will you make the selections? This is a new hobby for me, but I've been taking my HD camcorder along to gigs of a Finnish heavy metal rocker named J. Ahola (there's only one Dio or Ian Gillan etc., but this guy has a magnificant voice!) and uploading the vids into my channel, MysticalMaidens. Example at:
    http://www.youtube.com/user/MysticalMaidens#p/u/1/VUcIKvfRoBs

    Anyway, I'd be interested to know about the selection process... if someone can advise, I'd be greatful.

    I have ADSL2+ and YouTube commonly is in rebuffering at 720p HD and posibly even with SD!

    My ADSL2+ service is fine, because at Speedtest, I get at least 10 Mbps!

    I have determined that I often go to a crawl at only 1 Mbps or around there!

    No such crap at Exposure Room, which appears to be in Virginia.

    I'm in Vermont.

    It looks like the issue is geographical location, and thus most stuff from California will go slow like a snail!

    1080p sounds good, but most people lack the bandwidth and/or computer power to watch it. Not to mention Youtube is often very slow.

    So I reconverted my video to 1080p, but it weight more than 2GB!! How could I upload it?? Why do not you give at least 4GB for 1080P?

    For second try, I compressed it with Xvid and the file size went down to 500MB. Hovewer when I am done with the uploading a massage come up and say some short of mistake massage.

    So what could I do now???

    My Proshow Producer program also do not support 1080p for youtube just only 720p... But I really would like to upload my show in 1080P.

    Somebody tell me what to do, because I am getting unhappy and when I am unhappy I am mad and when I am mad bad things happening!

    Pretty pointless if you don't even have a 1080p monitor. That's 1920x1080 pixels of resolution.

    yeah um, my speed test says im getting 22+ mb per second or faster usually for downloading, and im pretty sure yesterday I downloaded 4 gig in under 30 minutes, with other things prioritized above it,,, but youtube, buffers like crazy on hd, and just stops playing almost, it def doesnt seem to be buffering or doing anything usually. I am using firefox if that matters, but fire fox is better than ie, theres no way anyone programs for ie and not firefox anymore right?

    also yo, im always running @ 1080p or higher on all my monitors, and it is really hard to read all the little text when not right up on the screen, i could crash watching vids on youtube, if I could only read it from the couch, please allow people using 1080p (or anything) to have different font sizes.b Also someone mentioned you need to make it so videos will always be HD, well there is an option for that, It just doesnt work :-/

    Also please dont butcher sound quality. I had to contact netflix recently about not getting 5.1 sound on MY HD streaming, they acted like noone cares, but I see im not the only one on here talking about audio quality. Thanks

    "standard looks the best" You must not have a monitor then. Analog cathode ray tube is not the best thing to view HD things on

    That's awesome. Video quality will be much better from now on. Just Audio and the Commenting system have to be improved. Then we can enjoy YouTube perfectly!
