HD quality


Hello,
I'd like to have the HD button in my player.
My question is it needs extra storage for HD and SD videos ?
Or it needs just the HD storage and it can handle it this way as a different versions of a video ?
In other words, e.g. my HD video is 100 MB and my SD is 50 MB.
I need 100 MB or 150 MB disk space ?
Thanks for any help !

If you’re hosting the video yourself this article reviews how to link to multiple sources. If you upload to our platform, you upload the highest quality version of the video and we automatically create smaller conversions.

Thank you. If you create automatically smaller conversions I 'll need space for these conversions also ?
Or I need only the HD space ?

In Safari browser I can't see any HD button as well.

If you’re uploading to the JW Player dashboard, each conversion version takes up storage space. You can view the size of each conversion file in the Sources tab of any video you have uploaded.
