YouTube Video Format

What is YouTube video format? YouTube video format means the format supported by YouTube. YouTube is a video sharing website on which users can upload and share videos. Three former PayPal employees created YouTube in February 2005. Most of the content on YouTube has been uploaded by individuals, although media corporations including CBS, the BBC, UMG and other organizations offer some of their YouTube video file formats material via the site, as part of the YouTube partnership program.

Unregistered users can watch the YouTube video file formats videos, while registered users are permitted to upload an unlimited number of YouTube video format videos. Videos that are considered to contain potentially offensive content are available only to registered users over the age of 18. The uploading of videos containing defamation, pornography, copyright violations, and material encouraging criminal conduct is prohibited by YouTube's terms of service. Accounts of registered users are called channels.

YouTube's video format playback technology for web users is based on the Adobe Flash Player. This allows the site to display videos with quality comparable to more established video playback technologies (such as Windows Media Player, QuickTime, and RealPlayer) that generally require the user to download and install a web browser plug-in to view video content. Viewing Flash video also requires a plug-in, but market research from Adobe Systems has found that its Flash plug-in is installed on over 95% of personal computers.

Videos uploaded to YouTube by standard account holders are limited to ten minutes in length and a file size of 2 GB. When YouTube was launched in 2005 it was possible to upload longer videos, but a ten minute limit was introduced in March 2006 after YouTube found that the majority of YouTube video format videos exceeding this length were unauthorized uploads of television shows and films. Partner accounts are permitted to upload videos longer than ten minutes, subject to acceptance by YouTube.

YouTube accepts videos uploaded in most YouTube video file formats, including .WMV, .AVI, .MKV, .MOV, MPEG, .MP4, DivX, .FLV, and .OGG. It also supports YouTube video format 3GP, allowing videos to be uploaded directly from a mobile phone.
