720p steaming. no 1080p
#1
is this normal. I checked out a bunch of videos on youtube i know to be 1080p streams,
however, when i try themm out on the Pi2 box, i only get 720p max. My connection is close to 20mbs.

Is there a way to troubleshoot this or is this normal?
thanks

It is normal. YouTube uses DASH for 1080p. Kodi does not support DASH.

You could try vimeo I suppose, not sure what they stream at.

Look at this thread here: http://forum.kodi.tv/forumdisplay.php?fid=154

There is a lot of streaming addons (YMMV)
