Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the HD (maxresdefault) thumbnail missing for some videos?

YouTube only generates a 1280x720 thumbnail for videos uploaded in HD or where the creator manually uploaded a custom high-res thumbnail. Older or low-resolution uploads only get the smaller sizes.

Is this the same as a screenshot?

No, this is the actual thumbnail image file YouTube serves, full quality, not a screen capture.
