And I have solved my own question. This thread answers it for me.
basically there is just no way to force HD playback from AS3 player if your px is less than 720.

Posting for anyone else that is trying to figure this out…

Peace.

Ok so after more digging I found this on the YT info page:
https://code.google.com/apis/youtube/player_parameters.html#hd

“Note: The AS3 player will automatically play the version of the video that is appropriate for your player’s size. If an HD version of a video is available in the AS3 player and that is the appropriate version for your player, then that is the version that will play.”

I can confirm this by making the playback res by 1280×720, and it does in fact playback in 720p automatically.

Question now is how can I force it to playback in 720p in a height lessen than 720px…

Any suggestions are welcome.

Tim

The tag on my page seems to be correct as well, as you can see that “hd=1” option is on:

<iframe title=”YouTube video player” class=”youtube-player” type=”text/html” width=”560″ height=”340″ src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/gvmBVOKblPI?color1=3a3a3a&color2=999999&border=0&fs=1&hl=en&loop=0&showinfo=0&iv_load_policy=3&showsearch=0&rel=0&theme=dark&hd=1&#8243; frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>

EDITED

I just did a very dirty workaround that worked.

I copied wp-comments-post.php from the /blog folder to my root folder /
Then changed line 16 from:

require( dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/wp-load.php’ );

to

require( dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/blog/wp-load.php’ );

I don’t like this at all. If someone can point out where the error and solution is, it’ll be great.

It definitely sounds like a redirect issue.

No go.

When I choose another structure and try to comment it returns something that seems like a reply from the theme:
“Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn’t here.”

I then change it back to default structure and I’m back to the original issue.
