"Please link to Google+ to select the 60fps setting."
"Okay, we'll ask again later."
But seriously, this is great news.

Didn't they speed up their 30 fps videos or something?

This is really bizarre to see videos outside of 30 FPS on YT.

About damn time. Gonna be a pain to start rendering everything at double the framerate but it should be worth it
Only the max setting is 60 FPS (and because youtube has the dumbest programmers on earth, it will not play the max video quality for me bar it being set to do that in my settings and youtube never switches to the higher quality you tell it to for any part of the video it has already loaded up, thus this is useless).

Eh, I'm cautiously optimistic. A lot will still blow it off I'm sure, but this time it's actually an easily marketable point.
Or they'll be dicks and use PC footage that's at 60 fps then release the console version at <30.

Can finally upload DMC and Bayonetta videos that don't look like shit. Not looking forward to reuploading everything though.
Is... is Youtube updating with something good?

Do these 60fps vids not work in Firefox? Because the Titanfall I'm seeing is nowhere near 60fps.
edit: seems to only work when I go fullscreen. Is that on purpose?

I thought so too, but fullscreen was appreciably better looking.
I think it is just Titanfall running badly.

I'm using the HTML5 player on Firefox and I can't get 60FPS. This may be because for whatever reason I can only choose between like 360p and 720p.
However I'm using the HTML5 player on Chrome as well and I can select 1080p. It looks like by selecting 1080p you enable 60FPS mode.

Yeah, but at what bitrate? YouTube doesn't give enough bitrate to 30fps videos as it is.

Video is ultra smooth here on Chrome.

Seriously.
I want to be excited, but until the player has a MASSIVE overhaul, it's still worthless right now.
Why would you do that?
Member
Wait do you really need to upload them in 1080p? That kinda sucks for older games. I don't want to have to upscale everything just to get 60 fps.
Still a great feature, but I hope they implement it better in the future.

Yup, Firefox's shitting the bed on my side to run these videos 60FPS. It clearly is on Chrome.

Titanfall can't keep 60fps during the Titan sequences. I'm guessing it's XB1 footage.

Same for me.

Works fine for me in FF but only when going fullscreen. Although, if they make it accessible for chrome only, that def would push folks to use Chrome over FF.
That isn't happening anymore and will not. Also the guy responsible for that and Google+ has left thankfully

Mine does the same thing. I have it set to automatically go to 1080p, yet it doesn't do so. I have to start a video, click 1080p, then fullscreen, and then wait about 10secs for it to switch to 1080p. I hate this but there doesn't seem to be a way around it.

It freezes for me in Firefox, while smooth in Chrome.
