Does increasing the size of Video element use more bandwidth?

I am using Video element to show video streaming.

I have some specific size for video element :

<video id="video" autoplay width="262px" height="196px" src=""></video>

I want to increase the size of video element but i am not sure whether it will use more bandwidth or not .

So does it use more bandwidth or same bandwidth with low video quality ?

usually no, unless increasing video element will change/effect video source. If source stays same, same bandwidth is used. To test it on your project, you can use debug tools (network section) in chrome/firefox.

There was youtube example. Youtube checks video quality that depends on video size, unless is manually set. And then some video part is downloaded. If video quality is small, that part can be 88 KB, if high - 912 KB. (these are numbers from 1 video with 2 different qualities.)
