Youtube Plays 4k Videos



This is some footage from the RED One. Chances are more than 94% of viewers will not be able to play it back on their machines. Go ahead, try it! Select "Original" in the resolution from the selection box, and click the Full Screen button (WARNING! It may freeze your system!).

Youtube began accepting 4k videos about a month ago, and there are only a few up. This keeps them on par with their history of accepting the widest range of video formats. Making the 4k move literally means whatever type of video you have, no matter the origin, no matter the encoding and resolution, as long as it has a container you can upload it to Youtube. This is a claim that can not be made by any other site. And no matter Youtube's history, they remain the innovators of online video distribution. Here is the 4k playlist.
