YouTube will start upscaling videos from SD to HD on televisions

YouTube has announced that it will begin applying AI video upscaling to those with lower quality, converting videos from SD to HD. But this is not all, it has also announced that in the future they will even be able to be viewed at higher resolutions such as 4K, a feature that should at least multiply the quality of some videos by 4.

In the future, it will also be possible to scale up to 4K resolutions.

A function that comes, at least for now, exclusively for watching YouTube on televisions. Videos that have this scaling to increase resolution will clearly specify it below each resolution option with the text Super Resolution. Users who do not want to enable this feature in their videos are free to do so.

Videos that offer this option will be duly identified

YouTube is also adding other new features, such as expanding the thumbnail size limit from 2 MB to 50 MB, which will allow it to offer higher resolution thumbnails. It is also offering improved search and QR code links on products that content creators sell on their channels, to directly access the purchase from their mobile phones. Other new features are related to searches and collection organization.
