Youtube has no 1440p option?
For some reason, since I've started using Firefox as my browser, I have not got the option to select a quality higher than 1080p on youtube. I can still select higher quality on Chrome, its only an issue im having with Firefox. Any ideas?

I have a guess: by default, Firefox has WebM VP9 disabled. You would see that as a red box on YouTube's diagnostic page here:
I've always assumed that's because the feature, while present in Firefox's code for a couple versions now, is not fully debugged. But if you want to give it a shot, here's where you enable it:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste webm and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the media.mediasource.webm.enabled preference to switch it from false to true
Then reload the YouTube test page to see whether it is detected (it should be). On pages of previously viewed videos, you might also need to reload to update the detection.
Can you get the higher resolutions?
(I turned it on, too, so I'll try to remember that if I start crashing.)

Yes, that worked! Cheers, mate.
