why not just use -f mp4 ? |

I wasn't aware of that feature, and I've read README.md. Great to know, many thanks. |
I'm on a Mac, using bestvideo in my youtube-dl config file as part of my quality cascade definition. Problem is, this option sometimes chooses a webm format when there would be a mp4 version of the same quality, and I'd love to have an mp4 file in the end.
Now there is this option --prefer-free-formats to prefer webm formats. Is there also (undocumented) option to go the other way and prefer mp4 formats?
Thanks!
