I think youtube started to force html5 and wants to ditch flash.

If video has more than you should be able to watch it on higher quality. How you mean you cant go higher?

I've also experienced this problem, clean out the cache of your browser and it should fix itself

If the video was only shot in 720p it won't give you higher options.

Firefox and Chrome at this point, are both very fast browsers. If you have a slow browsing experience using one of these, it is not the browser. Typically slow down in modern browsers is caused by people piling a ton of add-ons onto the browser, adware/malware, or other issues with the computer that the user has neglected to take care of.

thanks for the quick answers. the maximum of 720p is a thing for every single video on youtube in my case unfortunately, but only since i changed to html5 as mentioned before. the reasones for slow browser experience you gave make sense to me, however the only add-on i am using right now is add-blocker and that is a thing since day one it has been released, also I do not use any adware and stuff like that. I think I might do a quick rant call to telekom tomorrow ^^

I would hope you don't use adware... adware is bad, essentially a virus but with some key differences. A lot of people don't even realize that they do have issues with adware/malware. Very honestly it sounds like either your installation is messed up or you have a virus/adware/malware of some sort that is messing things up. Hard to tell what it is for sure. Honestly, I would uninstall your browser, do a scan with your normal anti-virus, then do a scan with the free version of Malware-Bytes, then reinstall your browsers and see what happens then.
