YouTube Video Links

Post by GµårÐïåñ »

If it has already been discussed, I apologize and would appreciate being given the recap or pointed to it, but a search yielded nothing useful.

If not, then I would be curious to know why under available download links for a YouTube video there there is no 1080 version, even when there is a 1080 video track under DASH links. It would stand to reason that if there is a 1080 video available, that there is a complete 1080 version too, so why doesn't it show?

TIA

Stands to reason does not mean that there is reason to it ;-).
I see what you say, but don't know if a combined 1080 should or should not be there?

Do you know if other utilities see a combined 1080 to be available?

I haven't checked other tools but actually the fact that there is a 1080 video, more than stands to reason that a full version is there too, just wondering why it won't see it. Unless YT is doing something completely asinine like using an AudioSYNC to play the 1080 video and some high res audio track separately but synced for output without being combined. From an efficiency and reliability that would make no sense. But then again Google doesn't often make sense.
