To prefer 720p video or lower, but not higher: --format-sort=width:1280,height:720,vcodec:av1 The AV1 codec preference is nowadays default, but I like to specify it anyway. AV1 has the smallest video size but at the same time the highest video quality as well. If AV1 is not available, it will fall back to VP9 (higher quality, bigger size,) and then to H.264 (lower quality, smaller size.)

Time will tell. It's currently downloading a webm video. I'd prefer a mp4 but it may not be available for that video. Time will tell tho. Later on it might grab a mp4 and then I'll know it is getting mp4 when it can. Honestly tho, webm does work well. Thanks much. Will post updates later on how it's doing. I'm also going to study that to see if I can grasp what its doing. What's different about it. Dale :-) :-) P. S. Can't wait for fiber internet to get here. They ran the cable a while back. It's getting closer. :-D

Nothing I tried seems to > work. :-( I have never used extension filtering before, but it might not be possible to specify a list, so then you need to make one extra format in your syntax. This worked for me: --format 'bv*[ext=webm][width<=?1280]+bestaudio/bv*[ext=mp4][width<=?1280]+bestaudio/best' Regards, Arve
