The fork yt-dlp already downloads in the highest quality.
The problem is that, that's (sometimes?) webm format...
WARNING: webm doesn't support embedding a thumbnail, mkv will be used
Embed thumbnails, you'll never see a webm again.
I resorted to a shitty script that gets the most m4a video quality using grep and awk.
Is the thumbnail embedding a yt-dlp feature?
yes but i think it's also present in youtube-dl
--embed-thumbnailYour intended playback device impacts which format you'll want. Or maybe I'm just fussy, I dunno.
