I checked with the help of programs, online services, for everyone the maximum is 720p, even if the video itself is 1080p How to solve this problem?

Answer 1

The good old console youtube-dl, the -F switch will allow you to see a list of all possible variations in video / audio quality. And the -f switch will allow you to download the selected quality, even download 8k. It should be taken into account that the video and audio of the highest quality options go separately from each other, if you have ffmpeg youtube-dl in the system, you can also make them automatically collect them into 1 file

Answer 2

If the maximum video resolution on YouTube is 720p, then downloading in the best resolution will not work.
If the resolution is better, then "with the help of programs, online services" it will be possible to download it. I used 4K Video Downloader .

Answer 3

VideoDownloaderHD+ there is a ready-made preset - the video and audio track are immediately downloaded in the highest quality available and assembled into an mkv file

Answer 4

There are many plugins for FF that download video separately, audio separately - this is such a quick hack from a pipe, in the expectation that shkolota will not figure out how to download it :) Then it is collected in one file also by any of the many programs, I use Format Factory - he fucking can. But not everything on the pipe has a quality higher than 720p.
