If you are seeing problems with playback quality, then we’d suggest trying another device - at least until the problem is resolved. ![]() This doesn’t seem to be affecting other devices like mobile (both Android and iOS), Android TV or Chromecast hardware. So, to summarize, when playing purchased movies and shows from Google Play Movies on the desktop version of YouTube, you’ll hit a 480p playback quality limit. It’s not actually clear if TV shows are also hit with a similar 480p playback limit, or if this issue just affects movies. Naturally, no further details were shared on the specifics but they did confirm that the limit will be removed once the issue is resolved. You can run Google Music Desktop Player on Windows XP/7/8 32-bit. We recommend checking the downloaded files with any free antivirus. We cannot confirm if there is a free download of this software available. YouTube’s responded to the initial queries to confirm that HD playback has been disabled temporarily due to a “technical issue” that the streaming site’s engineers have found. Downloading Google Music Desktop Player 1.8.5 from the developer's website was possible when we last checked. Other reports online hint that this is not a limited issue either, with complaints of this over on Twitter too. No other options for higher resolution playback are available - such as 720p and 1080p. ![]() When playing previously-purchased HD media from Google Play Movies, the YouTube player is limiting playback to 480p. This is a really neat aspect of the Google “ecosystem” but it looks like playback is being limited to just 480p on YouTube temporarily - even if you purchased HD versions of your favorite movies.Īccording to Android Police, this temporary limit has been in place since early last week. Thanks to syncing and account linking, all of your Google Play Movie & TV purchases can be accessed on YouTube.
