Please refer to the Product Page for the resolutions supported by StreamFab.

Moreover, the resolution of a downloaded video depends on the highest playback quality and how the video is DRM-encrypted. The reason why StreamFab fails to download 1080p video may be that the OTT service undergoes a DRM upgrade or there is a limitation on the maximum playback quality of the video. For example, Disney+ limits the highest playback quality to 720P in any browser.
