720p Youtube Playback?

My device is capable of 720p but YouTube on allows me 420p... How do I get 720

4K video on 1080p - CPU usage

I've just tried a 4K h264 video on MX Player with HW+ acceleration and everything goes fine. The doubt is: what about CPU and downsampling?
I mean, my doubt is about what happens. When the HW computates the 4K video, does it render it directly in 1080p or it renders it in 4k and than it downsamples it to 1080p? Because in the first case the CPU and HW usage would be a lot lower than the second case.

Video recording 'issue'

Hi All!
I have a strange issue when i recording a video with my OP6. The file size is very big in 720P, 1080P and 1080P 60fps.
I attached 5 screenshot from 5 different recording mode.
720P, 1080P, 1080P 60fps, 4K and 4K 60fps.
I have stock OOS 9.0.5 on rooted phone.
Its that a bug or something else?
I have the solution.
I installed an module for Magisk, that is the reason of the higher bitrate of the 720P, 1080P and 1080P 60fps videos.
Please delete this thread!

YouTube Maximum Playback Resolution

It seems that I can only watch the YouTube videos at a maximum resolution of 720p despite some videos having 1440p or even 1080p. How do I enable this? Thank you.

Maximum playback for YouTube is 1080P because it's a 1080p Display.
Otherwise you can use YouTube Vanced, there you can watch videos in 4k+.

Question 2160p on Youtube

So whenever I select 2160p in the Youtube app, it backs down to 480p. 1440p works fine and 2160p works in the browser only.
Am I the only one having this issue?
