<![CDATA[Linux Mint - only 360p quality on some YT movies]]>Hi everyone,

I have problem with video resolution on YT. Some of them are only in 360p resolution, like this one
www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Hj7ClzS1oE&t=01s
I'm Linux Mint user, so I tried codecs update "sudo apt install chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra". Add block is off. Didn't help.
The thing is I have no problem with that video on Brave (144p, 360p and 720p). Both with Opera the are on the same Chromium engin, so what is the issue?

This issue likely comes from missing or outdated media codecs in Opera. Even though Opera and Brave are Chromium-based, Brave includes more built-in media support by default. Try updating Opera or reinstalling it via a Flatpak or Snap package, which often includes the needed codecs. Also, ensure hardware acceleration is enabled in Opera settings. That usually helps with resolution issues on YouTube.
