   If YouTube could stop resetting the video quality to 480p or even 360p every time I load a video, that'd be great 😒

     @fribbledom Isn’t that an automatic setting based on your connection speed?

     You can override the default setting.

     Oh wow. This issue has simply disappeared when I switched from an Nvidia to an AMD card.

     What the f.

     Yeah, that's pretty much what I'm thinking as well.

     @fribbledom Hmm sounds like maybe YouTube is querying for hardware decoding capabilities, wasn't getting an answer from the Nvidia stack convincing it there were sufficient capabilities, and thus was defaulting down to the easiest-to-decode settings? Browsers do get a fair bit of GPU information these days.

     @fribbledom Is that with a specific browser? I wonder how much of my many weird problems are because of NVIDIA.
