Attempting to download a video from youporn.com will now download the worst quality offered: 3gp instead of mp4 hd video. The reason for this (or a side-effect) might be the output I see with --list-formats:

format code  extension  resolution note
0            mp4        unknown    
1            mp4        unknown    
2            mp4        unknown    
180p-150k    3gp        180p        150k  (best)

So apparently, youtube-dl is not able to figure out the resolutions for the mp4-based options and thus defaults to 3gp as the best one.

As a workaround I'm now adding --format=0 when I download from youporn.com
