    I don't understand the concept, like, why were the extra frames hidden from youtube in the first place??

      @tiffany Well, higher framerates means larger file. Their player also likely had to be modified to make 60fps playback possible, and until a couple of years ago, it wasn't worth the effort because the only people who recorded things at 60fps were nobody.

        @mrmattimation @tiffany Of course, once YouTube became giant gaming network, 60fps playback probably became their number one priority.

            @bobo @mrmattimation I never really understood why anybody thought games needed a sub-site

          @tiffany To clarify: The extra frames weren't "hidden" because there weren't extra frames to hide. People just weren't recording at anything higher than 30 frames because 60fps video is actually really intensive on a computer's hardware to render in real time, at least more so than the standard 24.

            @mrmattimation oh yeah I was being silly by wording it that way, despite genuinely asking
