Allow to block VP9 in Settings, use AVC as default for mp4 #102

YT uses VP9 and AV1 for higher quality videos, ext for VP9 is sometimes webm, sometimes mp4. Is it possible to force AVC for mp4?

Found a temp solution, add following to the Custom arguments:

--restrict-filenames -S "+codec:h264"

Yes, I'm aware of the issue (it has been bothering me as well). The next version (probably coming out in a week or two) will allow the user to set a preferred video codec.
