Media Extractor Ignoring `format_query`

[mwaterbu]

The problem

No matter what is entered for the format_query on the extract_media_url action, "best" is used, and the user input is ignored.

What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue?

core-2024.9.1

What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core?

No response

What type of installation are you running?

Home Assistant OS

Integration causing the issue

Media Extractor

Link to integration documentation on our website

https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/media_extractor

Diagnostics information

No response

Example YAML snippet

action: media_extractor.extract_media_url
data:
  url: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
  format_query: bestaudio

Anything in the logs that might be useful for us?

No response

Additional information

From the example YAML above requesting "bestaudio", the url returned should contain itag=140 but it returns itag=18 which is the "best" format. Selecting a specific id, such as "251" also still returns itag=18 instead of itag=251
