Some YouTube Tricks You Should Know

View videos in High Resolution

cybernetnews.com wrote a topic about “Watch High-Resolution YouTube Videos“. Search for a video you wish to watch and simply add &fmt=6 at the end of the URL. Now you don’t need to do that. Simply click the HQ icon just next to the volume.
