On firefox here, and a decent computer. Can't get anywhere near 60 regardless of setting or size.

 

[infinityBCRT]

I'm having good luck with IE11. Chrome does not stay at 60FPS for me.

 

[TimeEffect]

Don't worry gamersyde, I still love you <3

I'm guessing it takes serious resources, but I've been wondering why that site doesn't let users upload videos like youtube?

 

[outsida]

Finally out of the 30fps slums.

 

[lowhighkang_LHK]

seems a bit odd not to inform people that you have to watching at 720 p or 1080p to see it in 60 fps.

60 fps hitting youtube is the best way to get this concept instilled in the casuals mindset, and it's these very same dudebros that probably won't know to set it to 1080p to begin with. Which will then, interestingly give them a mindset furthermore that 60 fps doesn't matter "cus they saw it on youtube."

 

[Goldenmoney]

It's about goddamn time. I wonder if Twitch had any influence on this.

Titanfall at 60fps

VGHS Season 2 Trailer

edit - like TheD said below -- switch to 1080p to get the 60fps version

Looking good. On Chrome on my work computer which sucks but I can tell it's (trying to do) 60fps.

 

[Solid Samus]

sixty frames of terrible fucking compression

it's something at least

edit - those videos are nice and I'm really glad about the whole framerate thing as I've been compiling footage to upload and most of it is 60fps. I'd love for Youtube's ' " ' " ' 1080p ' " ' " ' to one day not look like a seven year old 720p Vizio LCD viewed through a light kaleidoscope

 

[plank]

Doesn't work at all for me on FF and on chrome only the Titan Fall video shows 60 fps some of the time.

 

[HoodWinked]

sixty frames of terrible fucking compression

i think its funny how it parallels how people can be so stupidly narrow in their understanding and somehow 1080p@60fps are the only things that matter. when in reality compression matters, bitrate, fidelity of visuals. pretty much mirrors the same argument people make in gaming visuals.

 

[meptrep]

The videos look absolutely terrible in terms of compression, but yes, it is 60fps. Performs fine for me, but I have a pretty decent PC.

 

[ChronotriggerJM]

Fantastic news. The quicker the world gets used to high framerate video, the better.

 

[BeforeU]

[Bluekaveli]

760 you meant

Good news for next years E3!

Seriously. Talk about a damn bottleneck for having great motion. It can be used stylistically, but it's just no where near good enough to a capture fluid movement.

 

[HoodWinked]

LOL google being scummy, i wanted to check the performance on IE after hearing people saying it ran poorly on firefox, looks like they have separate video caches for chrome (notice how it maxes out at 720p).

 

[ChronotriggerJM]

When 60 becomes the norm, 30 will feel strange. It will be beautiful.

 

[rjc571]

about fucking time

 

[Salsa]

so great

edit: framerate is kinda all over the place in those videos that already available tho

 

[Atraveller]

60 fps but at what resolution

792p

Compression my friend.

 

[OldAsUrSock]

I can't wait for this whole 24FPS cinematic bullshit to finally die in all forms. The only reason people think it "looks" right is because that's how they've always had movies portrayed to them. Hopefully the toddlers now will grow up and look back at crap framerate in all forms and wonder what the hell we were thinking.

I wonder if people lost their minds when films stopped being black and white. I wonder if their were groups of people yapping their mouths off about films not being cinematic anymore because of technicolor.

There were probably luddites then as well. I can't wait for film and console games to embrace 60fps. Cameron had already said he will be filming in 60fps and more game devs are going to 60fps now.

 

[vg260]

Just played the Titanfall video in both Firefox and Chrome. Looks OK in Chrome but definitely not 60fps in Firefox. Not sure why.

The settings need to be clearer.

Watch this sort of browser/performance issue perpetuate the 30fps doesn't looks any different myth.

 

[HyperBitHero]

It'll be hard for people to pretend they don't see the difference now.

 

[Remark]

My laptop can stream/run 60fps videos fine on other sites that I tried it on but it's freezing really bad on here. I'm on chrome.

 

[Prototype Viktor]

Now they need to default to their HTML player

 

[BurnOutBrighter]

When 60 becomes the norm, 30 will feel strange. It will be beautiful.

Exactly. People hated on the Hobbit and other high framerate content, but only because the cultural norm for the last 50+ years of cinema was 24fps.

If Hollywood blockbusters were all made in 48/60fps, they would become the new standard for high production films and 60fps would become the new "feel" of cinema and 24fps would look dated and stuttery by comprison - much like how the old 16fps silent films do today.

 

[DangerMouse]

just in time for the youtubocalypse with game videos...

LOL

 

[El Sloth]

This makes the "upload to YouTube" feature that some games have 10x more awesome.

 

[wbEMX]

When 60 becomes the norm, 30 will feel strange. It will be beautiful.

I gotta be honest. As much as I loved the Hobbit in 48FPS, I somehow don't want that it becomes the norm for movies. yeah, yeah, you all can bring up the point again that it just feels good to have 24FPS on flicks, because it has been that way since the 1920s. But I actually like the 24FPS look, at least for movies. A few "event movies"/blockbusters surely can use 48FPS, but I still like 24FPS.

As for games... yeah, 60 should be the norm. It should've been the norm on consoles by now, too, but for some reason only Nintendo and Naughty Dog manage to get that one right.

I definitely love the new 60FPS feature. It's something I've wanted on YouTube for a long time. As for the three test videos... VGHS doesn't run at 60 for me, BFH runs almost perfectly and Titanfall occasionally drops in frame rate. But it's a good start.

Judging by the quality of those sample vids, Gamersyde doesn't have much to cry about at the moment.

 

[Pops Maellard]

Define decent.

 

[PGamer]

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).

LOL google being scummy, i wanted to check the performance on IE after hearing people saying it ran poorly on firefox, looks like they have separate video caches for chrome (notice how it maxes out at 720p).

I'm not getting 60 FPS in Firefox but now I'm not sure if that's because I have YouTube Center installed with DASH Playback disabled or simply because it's being limited to Chrome at the moment. Either way this sucks.

 

[Serandur]

About damn time. Youtube needs it to do game footage justice, was missing half the animation before.

 

[Remark]

I'm getting 60FPS at 720p and 1080p

 

[Dark Stalkers]

i'm not getting 60 fps in ff, but i am in chrome, but then again i have the html player installed for ff

Those are not 60FPS... went to 1080p still 30...

EDIT
OH it only works on google chrome. Ofcourse

 

[VariantX]

runs like a slideshow in IE and Firefox, runs like butter in chrome for me.

 

[RedAssedApe]

stutters a lot on my Late 2013 mbp13 with chrome. is the intel iris too weak to provide smooth playback? :\

 

[R10Neymarfan]

I am not seeing 60 or 48.

Just regular 30fps. Though 30fps does look better due to downsampling

 

[RedAssedApe]

for those not seeing 60 are you viewing in chrome?

 

[Storm Raider]

compatible with new incoming ps4 app!?

Hm I hope so

60 fps but at what resolution

I think birate is more a concern than resolution. Thats what impacts youtube video quality.

 

[RedAssedApe]

ios app seems to be 60fps...although either my isp is crap (twc) or the 1080p/60 version isn't on cdn. buffering like crazy
