Hello everyone,

We're saying goodbye to May with some great news!

The New HD Button

Film Annex is now offering HD quality on its Web TVs as well as its main platform! From now on, you'll be seeing a button right between the "full screen" and the "audio" icons on the lower right hand side of the player: SD (288p) and HD (720P). This button will be on the player for all the films uploaded in HD format.

This means: If you have HD versions of the films you uploaded on Film Annex in the past, you can now upload them to give your films the quality they deserve.

Please keep in mind that the HD button is available on your full-length videos, and will not be available on the auto-extracted excerpts or trailers.
