To clarify, YouTube limits the quality based on the bandwidth of your internet connection. If you leave it on adaptive, it will give you not great quality while it figures out how much bandwidth you have, which can take 10 seconds or more, and begins to buffer a higher quality stream, all WHILE PLAYING your choice immediately. All technical stuff about how to get videos to play "immediately", vs a bit of up front buffering like other video services. So you should use the controls in the right hand corner of the player to adjust the quality you get so it is forced. This might require more buffering up front.
