Summary
This extension automatically changes the YouTube video quality to a user-selected high-quality resolution.
Features:
- Select the highest quality by default
- Do not change the quality if high resolution is already selected (optional feature)
- Allows the user to select almost all available qualities.
- It is possible to disable more than 30 FPS frame rates (optional feature). Use it if you don't have a bandwidth problem, but your browser cannot handle high-frame-rate playing.
- Use different qualities for visible and hidden YouTube players (optional feature)
Some Use Cases:
- YouTube starts at low quality, but I want to watch at high resolution.
- YouTube automatically increases quality which causes the loader to appear once per while. I don't want the player to alter the resolution.
- YouTube switches to 60 frame rate mode, but my browser drops frames

Doesn't work.

Pomaga też w drugą stronę, bo używam niskich rozdzielczości ze względu na limitowany internet, a bardzo często YouTube automatycznie uruchamia filmy w jakości HD. Bardzo użyteczne rozszerzenie.

Pretty exactly what I was looking for.
After Youtube decided to degrade every single video I watch to 480p, this extension is a godsend.
Sometimes it takes a little while until it recognizes the degradation but most of the time it is nearly instant.
And: no Bloatware, YAY!
Works as expected. Can very much recommend!
