large display results in blurry video #457

I have tested the different quality options: (‘default’ or ‘small’, ‘medium’, ‘large’, ‘hd720’, ‘hd1080’, ‘highres’), but the video seems to be blurry no matter what. It doesn't appear to load in high definition despite the video showing crisp on YouTube directly.

I see that this tool uses negative margin to focus in on the iframe, but without forcing HD video load I believe the blowing up of the video from 640x360 size just doesn't produce great results.

Please let me know what else to try, thanks for your hard work on this.

After more fiddling and hard refreshes, I was able to get the high res option to work with hd1080. I suppose your internet connection may have something to do with this, too.

@salcott The quality parameter you set is intended as a suggestion for the Youtube API. Youtube will try to serve the video with the set quality but it will fall back to a lower quality if there isn't enough bandwidth.
