When I watch YouTube Videos in my Room i always have it set on 360p. If I change it, the Video buffers for a short Time but it still is on 360p. It doesn’t matter if I change it in the W2g “Quality” Tab or the YouTube overlay. If I open W2g in Chrome it works tho.

I have restarted my pc and I did resett my browser cache, but couldn’t think of more solutions.

Thanks for your bug report! Unfortunately, it can be difficult to understand what YouTube’s player is doing in terms of quality, and it is not possible to force a specific quality setting. Do you have any browser extensions installed? Sometimes these can have unexpected side effects.
