Some videos exist in 1080p but show only in 360p #925

Describe the Bug

Some videos (example tested) existing in high quality on Youtube can only be reproduced in viewtube in 360p. Is that an expected behaviour and is there any reason I can't stream this video in 1080p in viewtube ?

Hi, high quality playback is a relatively new feature, and only available on https://dev.viewtube.io, because there are still some bugs. It will be released soon though, and will then be available on the normal instance viewtube.io.
