Are you doing it the Manual way, or do you have an extension (Except for the Firefox one, i use Opera, can use Chrome though for youtube as it supports VP9 for playback).

You could just download the Firefox ESR Portable I linked to and temporarily use that to download the VP9 formats. Since it's portable you won't have to install anything on your PC.

I would hope that was the case though, but on my other tests, VP9 and H264 are similar more or less, no Clear winner.

Shows how much my internet connection sucks, you're the second person that immediately compares only the 1080p versions. My connection is only 3Mbps (~360KB/s) so I'm already just barely able to stream 720p let alone 1080p. Not only that but I'm not even sure my CPU is even fast enough to decode 1080p VP9.
Therefore pretty much anything 1080p is completely out of the question for me.
