Open the video with chrome and set desktop view. Then choose 1440P resolution and watch your video of course only work if that videos have high resolution.

You still can't even watch 1080p with the YouTube app?
That crap really annoyed me on my Nexus 7 (2013) where you could only watch 720p at most. :-/
Use the previous update of YouTube and you will be able to watch 1440p just disable auto update from Google playstore ....

That's weird .... Because im using it right now ... and im able to watch 1440p videos .....
Working for me ... try it one more time ..... I know it works because people from the LG G3 thread said was working good ...
I downloaded the YouTube apk from your mediafire link and it worked for me.
It should be noted that I had to remove YouTube twice using System app remover (ROOT) (pro), firstly I removed from User Apps but then when I rebooted YouTube was still present and started updating automatically. I then removed another YouTube that was present in the System Apps section and so it was removed completely.
Installed the above apk and now can enjoy 2K YouTube videos :good:

Any help?
Cheers guys
Im using 5.10.3.5 and I get 1080p on videos that support it. Havent tried higher, because... well... my current device (Note 3) has a 1080p screen (soon to be a Note 4). According to google play, thats the last and latest version here in Scandinavia.

Root your device .... delete youtube from your system "Root Explorer Pro" redoot device ... make sure youtube is not in your system device . And know install the version that I posted ... and know you should be able to see 1440p resolution .....
Also make sure auto update is disable from your playstore
Ok, after some fiddling around, clearing cache, wiping data, removing, reinstalling etc i can now get the 1440p option to show... However when i select anything from the resolution selector nothing seems to happen. I click the cog again and the resolution is the same as it was before ...

It's not perfect, which is why I imagine it was removed from later updates.
On mine I noticed it would autoselect a lower (720p) resolution when I was far from my router but nearer it would stay on 1440p, we have fibre optic broadband but the router is pretty crap so it makes sense to me.

I'm pretty sure this isn't the reason - even if i select 480p it doesn't change anything...
I've gone back to the latest Youtube app at 720p for now - until Google get their **** sorted.
Ok. I was able to see 1440p videos after this was done. And just today i cant no longer been trying to view a video in 1440p and now it only shows on 720p
I deleted the youtube app clean cache . Tempe files etc restarted phone and installed again and i dont know what happened i no longer can see the 1440p again
Any other version Of youtube available or other way
did same as shown but the youtube you post is 13 version no 5 and its same 720p maximum why???
update:i now see the 1080p or 1440 but when i choose nothing happened when i check it back to 720p???
Mother fawwwwwkkk
I think its blocked server side

I have been through that forum and tried different versions of YT/ and installing methods.
New versions still plays better than older 2.4.4.
Many do play but a number don't - and unsure how to tell if they are HD etc (no icons in corner)
- various error messages - example attached
Since trying some youtube players (ie cutnpaste url - helps on many of them)
Same videos on S3 play no probs though...
MIght be something that I have to live with (1st world problems!)
The HD icon won't ever show in portrait (not enough room), but it will almost always show if you flip your phone to landscape.

i also still searching a sollution for this. i hope i can use mx player to open video from a browser. for youtube if using the stock one i got no problem but after update i also got problem to play the video.
they said its all about tegra 2 hardware.
just ported in for the 32bit remix, everything works fine just i cant play any video content.
1) youtube apps auto close
2) load youtube from browser , no video
3) cant play video with mp4 format on mxplayer
4) twitch auto close
ps: when i create a new folder on desktop that folder cant open. NO reaction.
is it anything i did wrong when i ported in?
thanks if there is any help.:angel::crying::crying:
Same issuse here on Vaio VGN21.
I have the same issue with 64bit version on my MSI AE2400, which has an Amd Mobility 4670 video card. I assume that video playback is still a work in progress.
But overall i am quite pleased with the overall feel of Remix OS
oh I thought I was the only one xD having this problem too on my aging Toshiba... everything else works though (for the most part)
BSPlayer is the only video playing app I tried that works. A bit clunky but functional.
Yeah same here on my Asrock Ion 330. MXplayer just doesn't play any format and VLC just crashes or just flashes and close. BSPlayer is the only thing that will play but it's very laggy.
hmmm....whenever you post any problems, its mighty helpful if you take the trouble to mention your system specs....like your video, processor...
anyways, try the boot flags posted here:

Just go to settings - applications, open your video application and grant fullscreen mode. Then it should work.
Best, maris
Kodi is powerfull mediaplayer with a lot of addons to choose, just google it man and give a try...

Hello everyone!
Nowadays i came across a bug on the youtube app which is really weird! Here it is:
I have an hd screen but youtube can play the videos at 360p max instead of 720p. Whenever i try to change the resolusion to 480 or 720p the screen somehow zooms into the video and i can see only the half side of the video... weird uh? Please post any possible solutions!

Hi there, this is my first post but I'm not new to the world of custom ROMs.
I have had many ROMs over the years and have recently flashed the slimsaber 4.4.4 v9 with dorimanx 3.14.
All seems to be well apart from a few minor issues that are not of any concern. That is apart from YouTube! My favourite app. It will no longer allow my to select anything greater than 360p. Kind of annoying. I have tried many things to fix this. Like flashing the ROM again. Adjusting DPI to 200. Even used xposed installer. And I can't figure it out.
It was working fine on my previous ROM (jb. I went back to stock ROM) I have not reflashed since the problem but might try as a last resort.
Please can someone help with this. I have read many forums that date back a few years relating to this issue and have tried suggested fixes.
Why is this happening? Could it be a hardware problem?
Thanks
Mark

Hi
I suppose you searched already in slimsaber 4.4.4 thread for you tube problems? I saw several posts concerning this matter.
Does you tube properly work when using Browser (test not only with stock Browser but others like Dolphin).
Sent from my STAIRWAY using XDA-Developers mobile app
Thanks for quick response.
YouTube only plays audio on stock browser. On dolphin it works the same as the app.
I'll check the threads again.
Are there any video drivers that can be installed. Is there a way of formatting that will rectify it? Any one have any suggestions?
@elemenopy
I don't quite get what the point is. I think our device's screen resolution is only 360p, right? So it doesn't make sense to try bigger resolutions in YouTube, as you will see no difference. Someone correct me if this is wrong.
As far as i know screen resolution is 480 x 800 pixels

Hi,
You can't install any video drivers onto the ROM as the correct ones are provided by the kernel.
If you really want higher than 360p, try using this modded youtube app:
[MOD] YouTube 4.4.11 (v5b), *1080p* / 720p HD (over WiFi & 3G), screen off playback
Please note that the screen resolution is 480p, but youtube only defaults to 360p.
Note: Dev-host link is a bit dodgy because one of the download buttons seem to be an ad. The correct download button is safe and I've used it on my S2.

Yeah, forgive my ignorance on that part. I'm back on stock 4.1.2 and YouTube only allows 360p. However, I guess the reason why I was hunting for this 'fix' was due to a pixelated image on YouTube when on the slimsaber rom. Also the stock browser would not play video image only audio. This has now gone back to normal now that I'm on jb.

I'll give it a go.
I have a Nexus 6p and recently the Facebook app will not let me play any video higher than 240p. Most videos only have a 180p option. The videos have terrible quality. I have tried reinstalling Facebook and deleting the files associated with it, but I cannot get normal quality videos to play. My Nexus 6p is running Android 8.1 June security update (might be May, not sure). I recently moved and have Comcast internet with 150mbps. I am not getting throttled. This also happens on other wifis as well as LTE data. There is no option to select a higher video quality. It's only 180p or 240p. I don't know if this plays into it, but YouTube kinda acts this way as well. Although I can change the resolution to 1080p, youtube defaults to 240p or 360p on every video I watch and I have to change it manually for each video. I have data saver off in Facebook and YouTube. I also have it off on my phone. Anyone have ideas why this is happening?

That's wired because YouTube and Facebook do that only when your internet connection is poor .
Check your internet speed again here :

If you still see a good internet connection , I don't understand what's wrong .

That's why I can't figure this out. My home wifi is supposed to be 150mbps, but when I do speed tests, its actually 170-180. When I use LTE data and do speed tests, speeds are about 25-30. When I used Comcast hotspots, speeds are still 60-100. When I use other internet hot spots, speeds are anywhere from 30-80. All of the speeds are more than capable of supporting 1080p video bandwidth. I also don't seem to have excessive ping either. So I can figure out why Facebook won't let me play any video higher than potato quality.

Same problem here with a 6P on the latest update. I have tried everything short of a complete wipe and reinstall. Stuck at 180p and 240 when I am lucky. The HD button doesn't work. I did notice a live video that looked like 480p today, but it was just the one video.

After a few hours, the changes took effect and now my videos default to 720p. That's strange that that had an effect on the issue. Thank you very much for the fix. Is it possible to get 1080p Facebook video?
You might try using other model numbers. I settled on 720p being good enough until Facebook updates things or if the next Android update fixes it.
