@nostupidquestions How do I fix this in yt-dlp?
yt-dlp -S youtube-link always downloads 360p videos but not on newly downloaded videos even when those same videos download best video quality via command yt-dlp link. I have ffmpeg. Does yt-dlp have a history I can clear or a config reset because I can’t make sense of this regression happening otherwise since it’s not due to updates.
Ah, alright. Try
yt-dlp.exe -S vcodec:av01. Note however, not all YouTube videos have AV1 counterparts, and then other sites use different code for AV1, so I’m not sure if the command would always work for other non-YT sites.@A32topsL Still forced 360p. I’ve already added screenshots. Seems -S is the culprit.
-S "codec"seems to be not working as you intended anymore. Sometimes the ranking changes too through time, so you must update your command line. Happened to me too before. For example, use-S vcodec:av01. Again, don’t forget, your results have no single AV1, hence no AV1 could be downloaded.@A32topsL I use -S “codec” to download av1 then failing that vp9… but seems to be impossible now :(
