Did you try to set this option on the extension?
It is inside the Player button.
For some reason Allow 60fps switch was set to disabled, and it instead of playing 1080p in 30 fps limited it to 720p

OMG thank you ! I was stuck with this for months !
Can 60 fps videos locked to 720p be fixed?
No clue, but this is not the focus of this issue, right? Your complaint was another thing.
Regarding your complaint, the issue was fixed once you toggled the switch?
Regarding the other problem, you can create a separate issue, and the community can attempt to resolve it.
