Posted January 12, 201213 yr What resolution do you prefer to watch videos in online? Personally I prefer 720p. Because it's fantastic quality while not being lag prone. And the internet is fully capable of supporting it unlike 1080p.
January 12, 201213 yr It was so obvious who created this poll even before I clicked on it lol Anyways, I prefer 1080p, since it's the highest resolution. However, most videos online aren't in 1080p, so I'll watch them in 720p or whatever the highest resolution available is.
January 12, 201213 yr 240p, mostly because my computer is laggy as hell. But when it doesn't lag, which is rarely, 720p.
January 12, 201213 yr I stick to 480p, because my internet connection can barely ever handle 720p, and never 1080p.
January 12, 201213 yr What the firetruck is 576p? The bastard child of 480p and 720p Yeah, I've never even heard of that resolution before.
January 12, 201213 yr Honestly, I really don't see a difference between 720 and 1080. 720 works just fine for me.
January 13, 201213 yr Author What the firetruck is 576p? The bastard child of 480p and 720p "576p is the shorthand name for a video display resolution. The p stands for progressive scan, i.e. non-interlaced, the 576 for a vertical resolution of 576 lines, usually with a horizontal resolution of 720 or 704 pixels. The frame rate can be given explicitly after the letter.[1]" "In other words, standard-definition television (SDTV) with a frame rate of 25 hertz. It can be used on analog PAL or SECAM systems (as a 576i signal with both interlaced fields corresponding to a unique frame). PALplus supports it via a "movie" mode signal flag. It can also be transported by both major digital television formats, ATSC and DVB and on DVD." "With doubled temporal resolution, 576p50 is considered enhanced-definition television (EDTV). In some countries, such as Australia, the 576p resolution standard is technically considered high-definition and was in use by the Special Broadcasting Service (SBS TV) (16÷9 the format has aspect ratio 1024:576), eventually replaced by 720p for its high-definitionsubchannel. The Seven Network initially used 576p for its high-definition subchannel, which now uses 1080i instead."
January 13, 201213 yr 720p is high res and enough for me. 1080p makes the filesize just to big and that is unnecessary in my opinion.
January 13, 201213 yr It was so obvious who created this poll even before I clicked on it lol This I normally watch videos online in 360p due to how much it lags mainly cuz I always have 6 - ∞ tabs open and usually half of them are youtube
January 13, 201213 yr While 1080p is nice and all, it sometimes take awhile to load, so I'd rather go with 720p. Also - 576p? Wat.
