Max Res of Video Thumbnail #65

Open xenodirt opened 3 years ago

Is there any way to get the max resolution of the video thumbnail?

It should default to the high quality version -- I'm not sure if there's a higher quality version available -- let me know if there is maybe we can implement it -- that being said -- if you know the thumbnail url maybe you only have to change the last part to something else like instead of ".../hqdefault.jpeg" it would become ".../maxdefault.jpeg" or something. I'm unsure.

The URL of the thumbnail is always ".../hqdefault.jpeg" instead of ".../maxdefault.jpeg" for me. I tried it with multiple videos, all I got were ".../hqdefault.jpeg" for both the image and thumbnail objects.

@Xenodirt yes currently the code does that -- I don't know if "../maxdeafult.jpeg" is a real image -- it was just something I thought might exist? I don't know if it's possible to get a higher quality thumbnail than "../hqdefault.jpeg" -- do you know if there is?
