the "high quality" thing is not on by default, but it was implemented by Youtube a while back. Now, whenever you upload a video, it'll do two encodings for you, a regular quality one and a high quality one.

It's not for all videos, is it?

I think it's for all video, since i can view any videos with a higher quality setting whenever i input &fmt=18 at the end of the address..
