While I am viewing normal videos with YouTube HTML5 player enabled, the 1080p quality was not displayed.

YouTube has changed, one explanation is here: http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2013/10/youtube-drops-support-for-1080p-streams.html
To have 1080p quality videos in YouTube HTML5 player, Mozilla Firefox must support Media Source Extensions; like Google Chrome, Internet Explorer 11 and Opera.
Keywords: html5
See bug 778617 and bug 881512, many bugs have been opened about the implementation of the Media Source Extensions API.
I close yours as dupe since it's redundant.
