I can only get the 720p stream and there is no video quality selection. Any ideas?Code:https://www.arte.tv/en/videos/121417-004-A/st-vincent/
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays!

Well, then ...
(Bitrate is not everything, more important imo is the combination of codec and bitrate. The video from ARTE is encoded with H264, whereas the video on Youtube is VP9 encoded. Youtube has the following 1080p formats for this video:
Code:ID EXT RESOLUTION FPS CH │ FILESIZE TBR PROTO │ VCODEC VBR ACODEC ABR ASR MORE INFO ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── 251 webm audio only 2 │ 83.49MiB 127k https │ audio only opus 127k 48k [en] medium, webm_dash 140 m4a audio only 2 │ 85.35MiB 129k https │ audio only mp4a.40.2 129k 44k [en] medium, m4a_dash 270 mp4 1920x1080 30 │ ~ 3.39GiB 5268k m3u8 │ avc1.640028 5268k video only 137 mp4 1920x1080 30 │ 1.55GiB 2415k https │ avc1.640028 2415k video only 1080p, mp4_dash 614 mp4 1920x1080 30 │ ~ 1.94GiB 3015k m3u8 │ vp09.00.40.08 3015k video only 248 webm 1920x1080 30 │ 742.67MiB 1127k https │ vp09.00.40.08 1127k video only 1080p, webm_dash
If you insist on H264, download format "270". Try
Code:yt-dlp -S 'res:1080,tbr,codec:avc:m4a' 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYudJVGi2i8'

Thanks. I'll get the H264 one. I know very well that bitrate matters in the context of the codec used (e.g. a MPEG2 needs much more bitrate than H264 for the same quality). But many times Youtube don't use enough bitrate for VP9 for 1080p streams and the H264 stream actually looks better. It depends from video to video.
