• Users recently experienced an issue where YouTube videos defaulted to low resolutions like 144p or 360p despite having sufficient internet speeds.


• Manually switching to higher resolutions caused constant buffering.


• Google has since fixed the problem, as confirmed by a silent update on YouTube’s help page. All impacted platforms have now returned to normal streaming behavior.

YouTube users recently encountered a? strange bug in which the video stream would default to low resolutions like 144p and 360p, even when the user’s internet speed is more than sufficient. If the user manually switched to a higher resolution like 1080p, constant buffering would result despite the connection not being a problem. YouTube had acknowledged the issue and was working on a fix. Thankfully, the issue now seems to be fixed.

Google employees have silently updated the YouTube help page for this issue, mentioning that it is now fixed. All streaming is said to have returned to normal.
