Support NeoGAF

[Guymelef]

Yep, 1080p on Chrome seems 60fps.

A friend of mine linked to that. That looks like 60fps to me. Is the 60fps support finally going live? I tried uploading a 60fps video myself right now, but it processed into a 30fps video.

Definitely higher than 30 on Chrome. Amazing. Finally.

 

[Hero of Legend]

Weird, when I download the 720p vid from Firefox the file claims to be 30fps in Properties.

Fully agree why does Youtube make it so hard to download 1080p anyway it used to be easy but they changed they way they send the video and audio streams

1080p It is def 60fps... look at the "stats for nerds" (right-click on video) it says 1080p60, yay...

Yep definitely 60 fps. If you right click on the video and check the statistics you'll notice the total frame count jump by 30 frames every half a second.

Edit: on 1080p ofcourse.

 

[Shin-Ra]

I'm getting 60fps video in the HTML5 player that's now forced in Safari 8/Yosemite.

 

[n00body]

Too late, already switch to twich.

Because is the same... Right?

 

[dampflokfreund]

So if you upload a 60 FPS video now, it will be 60 FPS? That would be amazing. I will try it out.

It's not working yet for me. Maybe only specific channels have access to it. Either way, it's nice to see it's being finally added.

Uh, that's sad But that PayDay guy doesn't seem so special.

 

[Euron]

This might be a stupid question but can we also view 60 FPS YouTube videos on mobile?

In the Giant Bomb quick look of Playstation Now they couldn't take screenshots or videos of games played through the service, so unless they changed that, that does seem like a PS4 version of Uncharted 3.

 

[Sectus]

Yeah, I dunno what's up. If anyone is able to upload something at 60fps, please let us know.

 

[lukeskymac]

Now give us the option to upload at a non-terrible bitrate and I'll celebrate.

 

[CadetMahoney]

I guess PC gamers can laud it over console users about how all their uploads now extra superior.

 

[Sectus]

I think they increased the bitrate quite a bit with 60fps videos.

You can compare this 60fps video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAYUACtfGvE
With this older 30fps video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Zb6eK6Y464

Just pause at any given time during 720p and look at the text on the hud. It's littered with compression artifacts on the 30fps video, but looks a lot cleaner on the 60fps video. It could look even better, but I'm happy if this change means higher video quality than before.

 

[ShadowKingpin]

It's based on subscriber count, I believe. Currently, they are rolling out 60FPS to partnered channels with a high subscriber count. That PayDay 2 guy has over 44k subscribers, so it makes sense to give it to him (60FPS is targeting mainly the gaming community for obvious reasons). In due time, more channels will have access to it.

Yup, when I click ''stats for nerds'' it says 1280x720@60.

Looks really awesome though!

 

[VE3TRO]

I'll check it out now since I have 56k subs it might be active for me.

I'll give it a try then. I only have 14k but maybe that is enough.

Also, be sure to go through your YouTube settings to see if there is anything about turning 60FPS on.

Uploaded a tiny clip. Don't think it worked for me.

Source video is definitely a buttery 60fps from PS4.

 

[VE3TRO]

Another clips here - http://youtu.be/GgdCwgSnbiY

The above video from Payday 2 doesn't play for me in 60 FPS btw.The stats show 25-30 FPS.

I cant see any enable settings throughout the menu.

Try using a different browser. I don't think 60fps works in Firefox or Opera. Definitely works in Google Chrome.

Yeah, it's only Chrome for me.

 

[RangerBAD]

Firefox needs an add-on or something because I'm only get 30FPS.

5K subs, non-partner channel got 60fps video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zPm3SSj6W8

The YouTube Center extension lists the available frame rates under the video description, even if your browser cannot play them:

That makes me think it's random who's got access to 60fps, and youtube is in the process of rolling this out.

 

[Robottiimu2000]

Why would you want your youtube videos to feel less cinematic?

Perhaps they meant it for debates and stuff?

 

[Sectus]

GeneralMcBadAss replied to my comment about his video being 60fps:

Everything I've made has always been 60 fps but has been capped by youtube's 30 fps nonesense. I actually didn't notice it until people started mentioning it, but finally gettting 60 fps in a video looks glorious and I'm fucking glad they finally allowed it

 

[Raptomex]

Fuck. We better start getting subscribers then.

Right click and then choose "stats for nerds"

Only 720p and 1080p hd are at 60fps. 480p and 360p are at 30fps

[Wenger'sBakedBaguettes]

I wish there were was good news about their bitrate as well

 

[PotionBleue]

Interestingly, it seems there is no 30fps/60fps toggle, so if your computer plays 720p30 / 1080p30 fine but is laggy when it plays 720p60 / 1080p60 you're basically fucked up.?

Use Chrome.

 

[RyuHei]

Seems like chrome exclusive...

I'm using Palemoon and 60fps isn't even working either. Guess it's browser dependent. We'll just have to wait for update from other browsers.

 

[cripterion]

That BF hardline video had fluctuating fps for me, it stayed mostly at 41fps @1080P full screen in firefox. Just odd lol

So what's the story here ? Are google just letting certain uploaders beta test this feature...when do we expect to see this released in proper ?

YouTube is on 60 fps vid overload today

Seriously. Looks like 1080/60 is working but the IQ is still shit

I did a cutscene comparison for Halo 2 Anniversary, and it uploaded at 1080p/60fps.
