Endless Paradigm

I am not much of a youtuber,. but is't it posible to download clips? if so,. you can skip streaming,. but still very useless such high res,. O_o

theve done it because they can

and knows noone will be able to test its actual functionality

You can, but not from Youtube it's self.

for your information...my SchiDeLoaDeR theme from march 8 2008 used the Red camera for the video icon :P  Just another show of how far advanced my themes were LOLOLOL



*edit* i miss my old Compaq tube monitor..22" that did 2560x2048 :(  Computer games looked so good at that resolution using SLI...until the tube started to die and I could barely see the picture anymore :-/

Doesn't really concern me since I can't view 720p videos without it freezing or just slowing down considerably >_>

... I wonder how the decision came about? What is the actual reasoning for it? To be a forerunner in the field of upper high-definition user-uploaded (I'd assume...) videos? I have still not even seen a 2560x1600 video IRL, and that has been around for years. I... can't see this resolution being even remotely in high demand for a number of years. I still see plenty of people just now getting their first 1920x1080 monitors (still makes me cringe to hear 16:9 "monitors").

At this time? For next few years? Useless. Still... I'd have liked to hear their thought processes.

720p videos still lags in my laptop, since it has lowres screen, still i still downsize vids that ive ripped from youtube, lol

• Many CPUs can't decode it without lag (especially going to slow Flash); I suspect it will choke all but the best Core 2's, but I can't seem to find reliable results
  
• DXVA (GPU decoding) probably chokes on it too.
  

Ok, finally managed to get back onto my desktop.

GPU decoding:

• MPC-HC won't use DXVA on that video.  So probably not supported.
  
• Ticking the GPU Acceleration box in VLC made my whole goddamn computer blue screen.  Most likely VLC's fault though.

CPU decoding:

• For some unknown reason, this was actually surprisingly easy to play back.  Only used like 35-50% of CPU usage on my quad, which means any decent dual core should also be able to do it.
  
• Compare to some of the 1080p BDrips that I have lying around, which take about 15-30% CPU to play (depending on complexity), this is extremely unexpected, since it has up to 4x as many pixels per frame.
  
• The could be a combination of... 1). That video I had was probably on the easier-to-decode side (not much motion).  2). The (comparatively) low bitrate also helps decoding speed.  3).  Maybe Google encoded it with settings that favours decoding speed (CAVLC, No in-loop deblocking)?  Don't know, I do not have any stream analysis tools to check with.
  
• CoreAVC is bugged, and refuses to play it.  Actually, I'm just going to stop using CoreAVC as a whole.  I hardly need the speed (my CPU is fast enough to play 3 1080p videos concurrently), and the bugs are not worth it (CoreAVC also has problems with windows thumbnail generation).  Also, these days I use FFMS2 for like 90% of my encoding, and 9% of the rest is (dgdecode_)mpeg2source, so I don't CoreAVC any more for that either.
  

Why not allow videos to be longer than 10 minutes rather than this retareded spoon :/
