How to watch high quality videos on Youtube
YouTube is notorious for its low-quality videos, even though it is the world’s most popular video streaming and video sharing website. Probably the reason is this: First the uploaded videos are converted to flash, and then their FLV files are streamed through players, which produces the resulting low quality video effect.
Here is a trick for turning notoriously low-quality YouTube flash videos into high quality 480x360 Mp4 format. This won't work on every video, but will make a huge difference for many.
The trick is to append &fmt=18 at the end of URL of the YouTube video you are watching.
Example:
Lets say you have a YouTube video with the following URL:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=skCV2L0c6K0
Now to watch a high quality version of the same YouTube, you will use the link below
http://youtube.com/watch?v=skCV2L0c6K0&fmt=18
Enjoy!
