Is there a way to set the YouTube video quality?

[mijnnaamisramon]

When using the default settings, I'm not getting the highest quality.... Is there any way to set the quality? Or get a list of the qualities available and choose? Any help is greatly appreciated!

By reading the docs https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp?tab=readme-ov-file#format-selection :)

By default, yt-dlp tries to download the best available quality if you don't pass any options. This is generally equivalent to using -f bestvideo*+bestaudio/best. However, if multiple audiostreams is enabled (--audio-multistreams), the default format changes to -f bestvideo+bestaudio/best. Similarly, if ffmpeg is unavailable, or if you use yt-dlp to stream to stdout (-o -), the default becomes -f best/bestvideo+bestaudio.

Ah, I just didn't know how to access those options in YouTube-dl-php :)

Most options are available through YoutubeDl\Options class where you configure them, but if you'll find a missing one, then you can open an issue :)
