I use this ,maybe try?
Somehow Leadra beat me to it, promoting my script. But yes, my script allows you to set a custom default, then you have the ability to manually override the quality through the native YouTube UI on a per-video-load basis. Exactly what you need and nothing more. If you are interested please do give my script a try.

After a first try, I noticed some minor issues (changing preferred quality doesn't looks right until refresh the page, and "hide" settings doesn't work). But the function works great! I can temporarily set resolution without affecting preferred settings. Thanks for your effort to maintain this should-have feature.
Are you saying temporarily setting a resolution through the youtube UI doesn't work for you? For this, it should work to change the setting for one video and it seems to be working fine for me. If that isn't the case, please let me know what browser and userscript version you are using. But I did not offer a way to temporarily change the resolution for multiple videos. For a temporary but persistent change, ElectroKnight's script might be better for you if it lets you change the script stored settings through a convenient UI.
[might be a feature request] Is there an option for setting default resolution to like 720p? My use case of this is to save VPN or proxy usage when I'm watching live streams. And if I want to watch at a higher res on other videos, I can manually and temporarily select through the Youtube's native UI or something.
