Snapchat Provides Overview of Its Evolving Ad Tools
31/05/2024YouTube has introduced a new video playback quality option for Shorts, allowing users to enhance their viewing experience. Additionally, YouTube has released a new Minecraft effect for Shorts to celebrate the game’s 15th anniversary.
Yes, Minecraft is now 15 years old. And just for perspective, Space Invaders has turned 45. Feeling nostalgic yet?
First, the new Shorts video quality option is now available in your Shorts settings within the app.

As you can see in this example, you can select “Data Saver” or “Higher Picture Quality,” or leave it on auto-detection, which adjusts playback based on your connectivity.
According to YouTube:
“Once a viewer has made a selection in the Shorts player, the selection will be applied either until a new selection is made, or upon exiting the shorts player.”
For instance, if you want the best quality, you can now manually ensure the system maintains your preferred playback setting.
YouTube is also experimenting with new ways to use Super Chat to enhance viewer interaction during live streams.
“We’ve heard from livestream viewers that they’d like a more expedient way to connect with the community, and what chat offers as of today feels too limited. Over the next few weeks, we’ll be experimenting with a “Reply” button, as well as the ability to like Super Chats, which will offer viewers more meaningful ways to interact with the community.”
These updates are minor but will offer more opportunities for viewers to interact with others during streams.
Finally, YouTube’s also got a new Minecraft effect for Shorts:
This effect places you within the game, which is quite exciting. While you can’t interact with the game elements just yet, perhaps a fully functional Minecraft VR experience will come soon.
Until then, this new effect is a fun way to celebrate Minecraft’s milestone.
