This demonstrates a setup to play a playlist of Youtube videos within Flowplayer 7 and setting a default quality of hd720.
The Settings menu feature enabled with is-settings can control quality selection, playback speed and subtitles and captions. If disabled this will use Flowplayer 7's new bitrate menu feature.
If no quality setting is manually set, youtube will determine the quality via the dimensions of the player. If it's too small it will default to a lower quality setting.
This uses the customisable Flowplayer 7 Playlist functionality.
