Maybe you can add music.youtube.com, so it works there too. Normally you can't choose quality..

Awesome, the other Auto HD extensions are poor and has extra features and icons that only gets in the way. This one however, awesome. Good job!

This actually works for html5 as advertised! Also works flawlessly on the Vivaldi browser for embedded videos also.

Doesn't work instantly upon playback, the absolute requirement. Fail.

Joshua Pattillo 2014-02-18

Works and doesn't require the unnecessary permissions that so many other similar extensions require.
