When I upload a video to Facebook (not from Youtube, an actual video file), the Facebook player has a setting to play it back in "HD" via a button in the lower right hand corner of the player. Is it possible to get this "HD" setting to be the default when people click on the video? I was not able to find anything online regarding this, except this which doesn't even work (for me at least, I'm using Chrome if that makes any difference).

Wellll...I think that's only for viewing videos for yourself on your own account. This still doesn't solve how to set how it shows for others who watch a video I uploaded. The reason still being gronostaj's answer cited below.– starmandeluxeApr 3, 2015 at 11:45

It's not possible. Also note that not everybody has a network connection that allows to watch HD videos comfortably.

2It is definitely possible all the videos uploaded on GoPro facebook page play in HD by default. I just don't know how to do that.– sublimeMar 18, 2015 at 3:29
