Hey,

Having a problem, and not being able to fix it or find the information on their forums. I'm using the JWPlayer v5, but I want to use my YouTube videos inside the player. I want to have the default playback at 720p - and have the HD plugin shown to have it selectable for playback in 1080p - but I can't get either to work inside the JWplayer. By default it loads 480p.

Can anyone help me?

I can get it to work through using direct videos I host myself but I want them on YouTube for more exposure and no hefty bandwidth.

Try adding the parameter &ft=18 to the youtube url it's grabbing the video from (or if there's a more relevant place to put parameters).

Done that, even done &videoformat=720p, &hd=1 etc, none of it works.

standard JW Player doesn't support HD playback, yet.

BUT, I modified the source code to enable this feature.
If you are interested let me know.
