    I’m looking for a solution to enable a YouTube quality selector for a video linked to your plugin. if its not possible to let the player do that, Ideally, I would like the video to play automatically in HD on all devices (even on smartphones). Currently, when I add a video to your plugin and watch it on a smartphone, the quality is significantly worse than the original 4K uploaded video on YouTube.

    PS: Additionally, I’m curious about how to implement a “hiding option” for the video in the source code and click protection inside the iframe. Could you provide some guidance on this?

    The Plyr player in use in this plugin does not offer quality selection for YouTube videos, I assume because when loading the original YouTube player underneath (which Plyr does) there is no way to control this underlying player. Please refer to this FAQ.

    I’m not really sure what you mean, can you re-word this question?

    The video ID and provider is encoded in the HTML, and decoded before being used to initialise a Plyr player. All code is public if you want to look.

    To customise the player please refer to this FAQ.
