Overview
- YouTube is testing a feature that enables users to control audio quality with three presets: Auto, Normal, and High.
- The 'High' preset promises improved audio quality over the current standard 128kbps bitrate.
- The feature is likely to be available only to YouTube Premium subscribers, continuing the trend of paywalling advanced features.
- The 'Auto' preset is designed to adjust audio quality based on the user's internet connection.
- Currently in development, the feature exists only as code in the YouTube Beta app, with no confirmed release timeline.
