What might video look like on an Apple II in Low Res Mode?

Best viewed at 720p. (no audio)

If the Apple II had video capability, what might that have looked like? The lo-res mode (with text) of the Apple II had a resolution of 40×40 with a 16 color palette. I created a custom palette in Photoshop using colors from this Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_8-bit_computer_hardware_palettes#Apple_II_series

I converted a 720p video to 40×40, applied the custom palette and then converted it back to 720p with nearest neighbor resampling. The resulting video retains the 16:9 aspect ratio of the original video.

What might video look like on an original Macintosh?

Best viewed at 720p. (no audio)

The original Macintosh computers had a resolution of 512×342 and could display each pixel as either white or black. I converted a 720p video to 512×342 with 1 bit color (b&w). I then added a border to bring the video resolution up to 1280×720 (720p). When viewed at 720p, you should see approximately what it would have looked like on an original Macintosh if the Mac could have played video. Unfortunately compression algorithms used by YouTube can blend the pixels so you may not get the desired effect.

Some Macs with 512×342 resolution:
Macintosh 128k
Macintosh Plus
Macintosh SE
Macintosh SE/30
Macintosh Classic
