Check the resolution of a video before downloading

We most of the computer users download various types of videos like movies, drama serials, TV shows, video tutorials etc. Some of we use internet download manager and some other use utorrent software to download our necessary videos.

But, most often we fail to download them in our expected resolution.  Because, we can watch the video only after completing the download.

That's why there is a chance to be cheated. There are some uploaders who upload low resolution videos and name them DVD Riv, HD Quality, 720p Upscaled or something like this. But after downloading the video we see that the video is not in our expected resolution.

So, we can test the quality and/or resolution of the video before downloading. Let's see how to check the quality and/or resolution of a video when we are downloading it using internet download manager.

HD Movies, High Resolution Movies, Download Movie With IDM, Find Out HD Movie, Get Best Quality Movie

 Step 01  Open windows explorer
Press Windows Key+E together to open windows explorer. Then double click on the drive Local Disc (C:) to open it.

 Step 02  Open the document folder
Now open the folder Document and Settings, there you will get a folder named Users. Open this folder also, there you will get a folder according to your user name. You have to open that folder now.

 Step 03  Find out AppData or Application Data folder
Now find out the folder named Application Data or AppData in short. If you fail to get that, then it is hidden in your computer. Let's see how to get the hidden files and folders.

 Step 04  Find out another folder named DownlData
After getting the hidden folder Application Data or AppData, double click on it to open. Inside the folder Application Data or AppData there is another folder named IDM. Open this folder also by double clicking on it. Now you will get another folder named DownlData. Open it, you will get a folder according to your user name. Open this folder also.

 Step 05  Play the video you are downloading
Now you will get some folders or files with the same name of the files you are downloading. Play one of them you want to check using VLC media player or KM Player.

N.B. Don't worry to play any video that is still downloading. It won't interrupt to the download progress if you play the videos. I most often check the video quality in this way when the download progress reach to 2% or a little more.
