How to Improve Youtube Clip Quality

[jugglertx]

I wanted to pass along a youtube viewing tip, not sure how well known it is.
All you do is access a youtube clip, then add &fmt=18 at the end of the address line of the clip. With many, but not all, you'll see improvement in the overall quality of the clip. Give it a try!

That worked! ;-)

You can also download/save the video file in higher-quality mp4 using
keepvid.com or www.vidmaza.com, and view it in Media Player Classic.
So far, that's been working for me.

Stereo Audio

For the longest time, I was trying to figure out a way to get stereo audio on Youtube, as opposed to the mono that the Youtube converter normally dishes out. This was the perfect solution - that you Juggler, that's awesome info!

Kidding! Kidding!

jugglertx,

how did you find this out? does it really matter anyway? isnt it the same as clicking high quality or HD or downloading the high quality of keepvid?
