A lot of content that isn't self hosted (tidal, trailers, live tv) streams in very bad quality
Edit: After testing Plex on Firefox, it seems this problem seems to be in Plex for Windows itself, as the videos clear up in browser after a few seconds.
Original post: I can't tell if this is normal or not since I've hardly ever watched content outside my library, but I just tried watching a music video via Tidal on Plex (for Windows) and it's noticeably worse quality than if I had watched it directly through Tidal. I've noticed for a few weeks now that many trailers that plex pulls from online are also incredibly poor quality. I'm not sure if this is a setting that I need to tweak somewhere or if this is just normal, seeing as I have most settings at "original" or "maximum". I'm doubt, but am not certain, my internet speeds (500/20) would have anything to do with it since everything looks good when streaming outside my home network. Here's what I'm looking at:
