Hi,
sorry for my relatively late response. I’ve already noted your issue on my to-do list as a prior to-do. But for now, there is no option. You can sign up to the mailing list for Lazy Load for Videos users to stay up-to-date on new features. (You find the sign up form on the plugin’s options panel.)
Best regards,
Kevin
Hey guys,
I had the same “problem” and found a quick solution: First, have a look on this StackOVerflow thread to get an idea how Youtube’s img-thumbnail system works: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2068344/how-do-i-get-a-youtube-video-thumbnail-from-the-youtube-api
Then, go into the MINIMIZED (!) version (in “min” folder) of the plugin’s JS: lazy-load-for-videos/js/min/lazyload-youtube-ck.js and search for “0.jpg” and change it to “maxresdefault.jpg”. Voila! You’ll have high-resolution thumbnails now.
Why the minimized version ? Because wordpress delivers this one to the user, not the un-minimized one. To a quick fix this is totally okay I think.
@kevin: Awesome script man, thanks! Maybe this “fix” can go into future versions of lazy-load-for-videos.
Hi panique,
amazing! Thanks for that link. An “image quality” option will be available with the next update (version 1.7 or higher).
Regards,
Kevin
Hi,
I’ve released version 2.0 yesterday that adds support for thumbnails with better quality.
