Dailymotion - in High Definition, in a new player!
The best content deserves the highest quality video, and it is in this spirit that Dailymotion has always sought to privilege its outstanding creative community with superior encoding.
For more than a year-and-a-half we have offered High-Quality video encoding, but with the rise of HD digital video cameras we have seen more and more Creative Content submitted in High Definition. This is why, from today on out, all HD video uploaded by MotionMakers and Official Users will be automatically re-encoded in 720p High Definition for playback on the site.
Anyone can watch videos in HD. To get the most out of Dailymotion’s HD, we recommend opening HD videos in full-screen mode or, even better, viewing the site on an HD-compatible screen. If your monitor is not big enough to enjoy HD, you can always connect your computer to your TV.
We have created a dedicated list page to help you find HD quality videos on Dailymotion: http://www.dailymotion.com/hd
Word to the wise, however: HD is both bandwidth and processor intensive, so a 2 Mbps connection is advised (and dual-cores don’t hurt ;).
Along with this bit of news comes another: the beta player which you have been able to test for a number of weeks has been activated throughout the site. In addition to HD support, it includes such improvements as realtime seeking, in-player embed and email tools, and greater user control over the quality of the video being streamed.
For the power-users out there, we have also included some handy keyboard shortcuts (NB: these do not work in fullscreen mode):
<CTRL>-<UP> : volume +10%
<CTRL>-<DOWN> : volume -10%
<SHIFT>-<LEFT> : video -60 secs
<SHIFT>-<RIGHT> : video +60 secs
<CTRL>-<LEFT> : video -10 secs
<CTRL>-<RIGHT> : video +10 secs
<LEFT ARROW> : video -15 secs
<RIGHT ARROW> : video +15 secs
<SPACE> : play/pause
Try it out and let us know what you think.

[…] I said for quite a while that sooner of later YouTube will go high def. People say they dont care, but try and watch anything of length on YouTube and you will start to feel very bored. With the battle over high-definition DVDs now decided, Blue Ray winning via Sony’s deep pockets , the HD debate shifts back to the web, where once again I ask the wuestion if HD online matters. Restarting the discussion is Dailymotion’s announcement today that all HD content uploaded to the video-sharing site will be automatically re-encoded for 720p HD playback. […]

That is perfect quality in a handy piece of equipment. I’m always upset of these new TV models in huge retails stores and their poor quality even when they’re made by good quality companies like Sony, Samsung or Toshiba. Its important not to purchase televsion online because just HD doesn’t count, television’s characteristics come into play. Great post, I have to get one of those players.
