This needs download refactor. After rewrite it will be looked into whether ditch old downloader in favour of a new one or not. You can follow its dedicated issue on the tracker. |

What is/are your question(s)?
The download prompt currently only asks for video quality
can we have audio quality selection as well (not the separate one).
Like I am pretty sure most 144p video downloaders don't need 130kbps audio, so we must either smartly include a lower quality audio or let the user choose what quality they want to use.
Why this matters?
Let's take this video for a reference : https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GWB9ApTPTv4
The 480p AV1 videostream costs 93MB
The 251 audiostream costs 142MB
so 93+142 = 235MB
More than the videostream? That's stupid from the user point of view and what about 600 audiostream? It's just 44MB.
That's a 100MB of a difference!
(Alongside the quality I also hope some transparency is there about the codecs being used)
This is the only reason I am using yt-dlp instead of NewPipe.
