JS Iframe API loading thumbnails in low resulution

[jasenkoh]

Hello,

Each time I do player.cueVideoById thumbnail is loaded as default quality, even I when I specify suggestedQuality property it's being ignored.

Anyone have similar experience before?

Yes, cueVideoById loads default thumbnail and not high quality thumbnail. Remove cueVideoById will load high resolution image. player.cueVideoById is used for not playing video on page load.

Instead you can play video on click by putting code into onPlayerReady function.

function onPlayerReady(event) {

     var play= document.getElementById("play-button");
       play.addEventListener("click", function() {
           player.playVideo("YoutvideoID");
  });
  
  var pause= document.getElementById("pause-button");
      pause.addEventListener("click", function() {
      player.pause("YoutvideoID");
  });
}
