Members Troppo Posted April 11 Members Share Posted April 11 YouTube is partly responsible. The platform is trying to save money on bandwidth by lowering the bitrate of 1080p videos and hoping people won't notice the degradation too much. But if you pay for Premium you might get the "Enhanced Bitrate". I say might because not every video gets it and it is limited to 1080p30. I'm currently trialing Premium. On some of the S13 videos, I do notice a marginal improvement but I do not think it's worth paying for at this stage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Troppo Posted April 11 Members Share Posted April 11 (edited) What I’m more concerned about is the inferior audio in some of the episodes. At first I thought I was imagining it, but I started noticing that some episodes sound like they’re in mono. Audio sounds somewhat muffled and blended together, the way mono sounds like when you split one channel audio into two. Other episodes sound much clearer and fuller with clear separation in both the left and right channels, and a lot louder as well (and they sound amazing). Interestingly the bad audio only seems to be affecting the 60 fps videos. You probably won't notice it unless you wear headphones like I do, but even I've noticed it playing on laptop speakers.

Members Maxim Posted April 11 Members Share Posted April 11 I download with premium and still notice the pixelated videos. And the audio issue scares me. Mono audio is something I hate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Marquise Posted April 11 Members Share Posted April 11 My oppinion on some things being discused: I really loved the Couple Ridge + Caroline sr., but after that my fav was with Taylor. About the 2000-2001 episodes, i enjoyed the Morgan story got some good stuff in it. I am now watching the 1997 episodes and i rally hate the way Thorne inteprates what is happaning between Ridge and Brooke and the way he is manipulating Taylor to think Ridge does not love her.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Maxim Posted April 12 Members Share Posted April 12 1997 was very up and down, up and down. Not my favorite year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChickenNuggetz92 Posted April 15 Members Share Posted April 15 Is it just me or the constant attacks on KKL's appearance in the 1999-2000s era in the YouTube comments is rather.... toxic? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Boldsoaps Posted April 16 Members Share Posted April 16 I’ve seen it occur in the 1995 videos too 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Maxim Posted April 16 Members Share Posted April 16 It's a disgusting campaign by a certain other actor's fans who are jealous of her. And it's really too much and very toxic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Troppo Posted April 16 Members Share Posted April 16 (edited) Trolling is a rife over there, with the clapped-out Brooke jokes and the usual suspects trying to get a rise out people. It becomes stale after a while. Edited April 16 by Troppo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Videnbas Posted April 16 Members Share Posted April 16 Episode 3288 is not in the playlist, so there's another potentially missing episode. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members boldau Posted April 16 Members Share Posted April 16 Yep it’s disgusting. I read a handful of comments on one of the S13 episodes released today (link below) - the comments are abhorrent. It’s the same 8-10 YT users that constantly post about her hair, body, eyes - it’s happening on almost every episode. Others are more aggressive and derogatory and say “KKL is …”. The same core users are now posting “Morgan is so ugly” against Sarah Buxton. I wish the official YT channel would ban these users, or shut off comments but this would ruin engagement with the good folk I guess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
