[Q] 4K video uploads to Youtube not working - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Not sure if this is an issue with the phone or Youtube, but I've uploaded two videos now testing the 4k footage but when I select the 4k option, it loads for a little while then switches to 480p
Anyone else had this problem?

it's just you I guess, cause the youtube video plays in 4k for me

Hmm. My computer at home wont play it, neither will my one at work, both of which are dual quad xeons with titans.
This video works fine for me
But this one doesn't

Can you see this one? It was taken with my G3 and uploaded with my G3 and it showed as 4k when I watched it with my PC

Desire Z 720P Video Recording

Hi folks,
I got a brand new Desire Z yesterday and I've experimented with the video recording mode. Apparently its supposed to record in 720P, but when I uploaded the video to youtube directly from the phone, it only shows it up to 480P.
Am I doing something wrong here?
Thanks

Its doesn't record in 720p by default you need to change the resolution from the camcorder settings.

[Q] How to upload 4k video?

I set my settings on video size to UHD 3840x2160 before taking a video. And when i tried to share it on youtube, it doesnt seem to be 4k. Is there another way to do it?
What resolution does it come up on YouTube? Also are you using the youtube app on the Note 4 to view the video?

Did I miss LG fix this?

I used to have my phone rooted on lolipop. Mainly for that extra video feature of 60fps. I'm pretty sure that was the need for rooting either that or slow motion. But pretty sure it was 60fps. Well anyway I unrooted my phone and went back to marshmallow and just recorded some video today of fireworks. I used UHD mode expecting only 4k video. Turns out I uploaded it to youtube and it was uploaded as 60fps. Any ideas? I'm going to look for an app that shows the full meta data in the meantime to double check this. But I was under the impression the vs986 LG G4 for Verizon didn't record in this format. I could be wrong.

False alarm. Windows 10 shows it's at 29fps. Don't know why youtube upscaled it automatically instead of allowing the 4k. I did forget to mention though that since it uploaded in 60fps to youtube it didn't allow the 4k resolution to be used and is instead maxed out at 1080.

Google Photos does not show 1080p 60fps or 4K video?

I've noticed that any 60fps 1080p video or 4K video that I take on my Pixel XL and upload to Google Photos always shows up as plain old 1080p. Has anyone else noticed this?
I've noticed that if I download the same video in Google Drive to my machine, 60fps or 4K remains intact- but not when playing back in the browser (either in Drive or Photos).

When playing back in photos, do you adjust the quality in the bottom right? (Similar to YouTube)
Update: I see now. Even though it's got the quality options in the lower right, the options are limited to Auto are various resolutions from 1080P on down. No 4k or 60fps. Weird.

Yep very weird. I haven't seen anyone else talk about this issue either.
I am guessing that like YouTube that because the screen of the Pixel XL is 2k it doesn't give the option for 4k play back on the phone itself
That's a shame.... It should at least do the 60fps

The video has to be uploaded to a higher quality, most videos on YouTube are not higher than 1080p.
I have no issue seeing the 2K resolution when on a video that was uploaded in 2K. See attached photo.
Try the same video I did.

Have you updated your YouTube app?
If so, then the blame falls on Google. I know they have some lists for specific devices and being able to do such capabilities like VP9 playback.
If you are rooted, check this thread out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-patched-youtube-vp9-60fps-playback-t3418216
It's the one I am using, I had no idea it had an effect on 2K resolution too.
I am not rooted stock and waiting for nougar update....okay i will try contacting google fkr a possible sollution
Solveddddd.......i just uninstalled the installed updates to the youtube app
In other words uninstalling youtube from playstore and then trying playing a 2k video give me 2k resolution.. Updated to latest version again....and working
