This stream has a 1080p option, but the usual "ultra" quality option will only give a 720p stream. The "high" quality option also gives apparently the same identical 720p stream. Tested with default options and also does not stream 1080p quality.

This now seems to have changed. The link now allows 1080p. There appears to be a bug that happens right after the episode is released where higher resolutions are accessible via the website than via livestreamer.

There appears to be a bug that happens right after the episode is released where higher resolutions are accessible via the website than via livestreamer.

There are (at least) two different APIs and (at least) two different streaming protocols: HTTP Live Streaming (Livestreamer's Crunchyroll plugin) and the Real Time Messaging Protocol (Crunchyroll's website).

I can't confirm that. 1080p is available!

I'm sorry, my mistake... I had the wrong link on copy paste. http://www.crunchyroll.com/new-game/episode-2-so-this-is-an-adult-drinking-party-715395

@0880 Here is a new example URL that shows that the issue exists. http://www.crunchyroll.com/new-game/episode-10-full-time-employment-is-a-loophole-in-the-law-to-make-wages-lower-715411

In that URL only 480p is shown when livestreamer accesses it, but the website shows 1080p is available.
