Video Resolution Locker for Squid

Version 1.10 - August 28th 2014

The Video Resolution Locker for Squid is a free API in order to lock the resolution on YouTube, Vevo and DailyMotion.
The API takes into account all YouTube, Vevo and DailyMotion video formats, all resolutions (144p to 2160p).
For YouTube, if the selected resolution does not exist, the API will reply with the original resolution.
With Vevo and DailyMotion, the API will always reply with the lowest resolution (Vevo: 360p, DailyMotion: 144p)

Edit the .PHP file to fix the resolution with 'resol=240p' or anything else.
Disable or enable Vevo ('vevo=0 or 1') and DailyMotion ('dm=0 or 1'), by default they are both enabled if not precised.
All flv/ts/mp4/webm/3gp parts will be locked to the selected resolution or lowest resolution.

Note: If you change the resolution when watching a video on the YouTube player, the video will freeze during few seconds, that's normal.
The YouTube player will need to reload the video part in the correct resolution.
With Vevo and DailyMotion, the lowest resolution is fixed at the start of the videos, so no freeze.
