>>55504198Yeah, I did mine at 720, which physically pains me, but I just don't have the space for 1080.
If you want to speed up downloading, I'd recommend adding:
--concurrent-fragments X
--abort-on-unavailable-fragment
Concurrent fragments basically allows you to download using multiple connections. Replace X with the number of downloads connections. I used 20 and got 5x speed, a shitty laptop might do 8.
Abort on Unavailable basically means ytdlp will stop if a fragment gets corrupted. This is good bc usually it'll keep going and you get a corrupted segment of video instead of smooth video. Simply restarting the dl usually fixes the problematic fragment
Note that concurrent fragments only works if your downloading using m3u8 (m3u8 is basically a streaming format. End video quality doesn't change). For you, you'll just do "-f bestvideo[ext=mp4][protocol*=m3u8]+bestaudio[ext=m4a]/best[ext=mp4]/best" to select m3u8 if it's not the default protocol type
