# Automatic quality - version 1.1.3

Customers receive one Auto source per distinct underlying provider stream, capped at 1080p. Lower video representations (normally 720p and 480p) remain inside its DASH manifest, alongside the original audio and subtitles. Separate fixed-quality and Auto 720p entries are no longer advertised.

If 1080p is unavailable, the Auto label states the actual lower maximum. If only one video quality exists, the label and description say so. If the manifest cannot be verified, an unverified Auto fallback is retained; direct MP4 sources remain direct. These exceptional fallbacks cannot guarantee adaptive quality or the cap.

The player chooses quality using observed media delivery and its buffer. It does not run an explicit speed test against the VOD server. Video segments still travel directly from the original CDN. Automatic quality cannot guarantee uninterrupted playback or continuous 1080p.

Existing playback URLs remain supported for cached entries and in-progress playback. New source lists advertise only Auto entries. Allow up to ten minutes for the panel source cache to expire; reopening Sources or restarting the app may refresh the device cache. The private manifest URL is unchanged.
