Bad quality about react-native-youtube-iframe HOT 5 CLOSED

Unfortunately, programatically setting video quality is not allowed by youtube.

API Doc | Youtube Doc

the API no longer supports functions for setting or retrieving playback quality. To give you the best viewing experience, YouTube adjusts the quality of your video stream based on your viewing conditions.

The user can still manually change quality by clicking on the three dots on the top right corner, for which there is a callback if you want - doc

Its safe to assume that users who have reasonably good internet will get a better video quality by default, and bad internet is paired with poor quality.

Hello, thank you for your answer, in spite of that, I think that the problem is not related to the connection, I currently have the fiber, I am in wifi but the speed goes very well.

Another thing, I don't have the parameters to change the quality, here is what happens when I click on the three little dots, and the general controls.

I'm currently debugging on a OnePlus 6 Android OxygenOS 10.3.4, the size I get back from Dimensions.get('window') is 400x800, I also read that YouTube automatically changes the quality related to the size of the device. So I tried to just multiply x 4 the received value (it's ugly I know), but it doesn't change my problem.

So I wanted to try something else, I debugged on an android emulator, and I get the "large" callback so full HD, I don't understand why on my phone, it doesn't work. This one returns 400x800 also in size, the code is the same and still no possibility to change the quality.

Thanks for your time.

You are right, there isn't a quality selector in the menu. My bad..

That sounds right, only callbacks to the quality change are accessible as of now ☹️ The link to the 2019 revision history (in my previous comment) is all the info we have on quality

Hello, thanks for the answer, I guess it's my version of android that's the problem, I'll deal with it, thanks!
