i'm so frustrated. i just found out why my 720p renders looks blurry as fuck. avc codec. channels with higher view-counts get a codec called vp9 which is significantly clearer at 720p and 1080p. @TeamYouTube is there any way to manually enable vp9?
go onto any of stimpy's or anyone else's old 720p videos, all vp9. only difference is viewcount.

yes they get to be higher quality because more people are gonna see them/more people have seen them. that is so they can save space.

that's so backwards lol. you'd think they'd prefer people to upload in smaller resolutions to save space, especially after seeing everyone abuse the 1440p workaround. there really should just be an option on which codec to choose. avc1 for quick processing times, vp09 for quality
