Each time I have to enter -k to keep both formats I downloaded (e.g. -f http720+http1080 -k), but it still merge it, which I don't need.

How I skip merge?

Well, just curious - why you need unmerged formats?

Various reasons, encoding, testing on multiple devices. I usually work with 480p 540p 720p and 1080p files.

From the format selection section:

If you want to download several formats of the same video use comma as a separator, e.g. -f 22,17,18 will download all these three formats, of course if they are available. Or more sophisticated example combined with precedence feature -f 136/137/mp4/bestvideo,140/m4a/bestaudio

Sounds that's what you need, isn't it? It's indeed not so obvious. Will add an example to format selection examples
