Feature request: auto quality adjustment #3165

My suggestion is an automatic quality setting, It would change the quality preset automatically if it thinks the player is lagging too much.

This is very difficult. We had something similar for crash detection a while ago and it just ended up that everyone used compatibility settings. The adjustment was not even automatic, it was a popup box, but that is essentially automatic as people automatically click popup boxes.

It matters when you run it. For example if its on start when stuff is not loaded and cached, it will detect poor HW. I remember something like that done by quant and having issues like that.
