Is there a way for me to ensure that each video selects the highest quality resolution for playing in tubepress?

Hi Denis,

 

Unfortuantely there is no way to ensure that each video selects the highest quality resolution for playing within TubePress.  The video quality is controlled completely by YouTube.

 

Thanks!

Hi Denis,

 

the devs are wrong here. Just open up /src/main/php/plugins/youtube/resources/templates/embedded/youtube.tpl.php and in line 12 change

 

src="<?php echo ${tubepress_api_const_template_Variable::EMBEDDED_DATA_URL}; ?>"

to

src="<?php echo ${tubepress_api_const_template_Variable::EMBEDDED_DATA_URL}; ?>&vq=hd1080"

 

Simple as that...

 

Cheers,

Alex

This does work, but it's not listed in the official YouTube documentation. Until it does, we can only say "use this technique at your own risk!"

 

Thanks for sharing, Alex.

Would be nice to have an hd option in the settings page.

Remy,

 

As my previous post states, this is not something that is documented in the YouTube API, and so is not officially supported or endorsed by TubePress.

 

Thanks!
