WEBM, is it the default option of yt-dlp downloads?

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Hello Ibrahim,

this page can help:
https://docs.yt-dlp.org/en/latest/README.html#format-selection

However, maybe pipe-viewer:
https://github.com/trizen/pipe-viewer
can be used as an interface to yt-dlp.

I plan to package it in the coming days.
Cheers,
Didier
