Do you have the video settings set to 1080?

It has choices up to 1080p and it is set at 1080p on Youtube but the quality is garbage.

Well, its not the video itself so its something on your side. Do you have issues with any other video?

The video uploader already says 1080p and in the options, it is shown up to 1080p on Yotube.

And yes, some of those 1080p old movies on Youtube look like 360p.

Your monitor perhaps? Some kind of throttling on your end? Im not sure. Only thing that can be ruled out is that it isnt the video itself, especially if its happening with other videos.

It is happening in 1080p old movies on Youtube.

Despite being 1080p on Youtube, they don't look remastered at all. Poor Quality.

Also, because there is no rhyme or reason, and certainly no quality control, for most of Youtube. Someone could take a 360p video and "convert" it to 1080p, and then upload it.
