Open jakop345 opened 8 years ago

It would be gret if we could select quality of youtube videos.

Hi @jakop345, At the moment we download the best quality available. We try to stick to the Keep It Simple Stupid and Pareto principles and I don't see many use-cases where it would be interesting to download different quality. So we would probably not implement this feature in the short or medium term. Thanks for your report.

No quality is required because not every one has a great internet speed in their countries and in some fup limit is too small. It might also reduce load on server because not every one want a 720p version

Yes that's a valid use case, however I don't think 80% of users have bad internet connection. Perhaps I'll change my mind and implement that feature one day. But at the moment I prefer to keep the code and the interface as simple as possible.
