YouTube now supports 8K videos – not that your computer can play them yet.
The ad-supported VOD service has been upping its tech game of late, in an attempt to fend off rivals such as Twitch and Vimeo. 3D support was introduced a long time ago and now 360-degree videos and 60fps live streams are also possible.
This week, though, the first video has been uploaded to the site in 8K – a resolution with high pixels that nobody can actually watch it.
Some shots [were] simply scaled up by 125% from 6.1K to meet the 7.6K standard,” adds the video description.
Think your computer can handle the processing power required to display the 8K stream in Chrome or Safari or Mozilla? Have a go below, Comments welcome
