Google Youtube High Resolution

Currently Youtube provides an option to view the quality version of the video but it still does not provide any method to let users embed high quality version of the video on websites.

The hack below will allow the embedding of high resolution Youtube videos. All you need is to append &ap=%2526fmt%3D18 to the url.

Default Embed Code:
<object width="425" height="344">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2BgyhHBoz50"></param>
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Rw8gE3lnpLQ&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344"></embed>
</object>

High Resolution Embed Code:
<object width="425" height="344">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2BgyhHBoz50&ap=%2526fmt%3D18"></param>
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Rw8gE3lnpLQ&ap=%2526fmt%3D18" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344"></embed>
