Google is proud to announce that its video portal, YouTube, has developed new technologies now allow him to host and disseminate videos in high definition 1080p. Until then, the button "HD" YouTube does not allow access to a resolution of 720p. "While the resolution of cameras increases, we want to make sure that YouTube is the best place on the Web to distribute your content," said Billy Biggs, head software.

Of course, better to be equipped with a large screen displaying Full HD and computers fast enough to make the most of this new proposed resolution. However, while we might have feared that it must also have a connection high-speed ADSL line classic is doing rather well.

A big investment?

As for the interest to go to Full HD, it is obvious to YouTube so that more and more TV widgets include facilitating access to YouTube and screen resolutions are progressing rapidly. One can however imagine that broadcast such video streams will create significant additional costs in bandwidth for Google.
