Supported links and realistic quality

Supported patterns include standard watch URLs, youtu.be short links, Shorts, embed URLs, and live URL patterns. Unlisted videos accessible through their link may work when progressive formats exist — this is best effort. Available quality depends on the source: progressive MP4 is often around 360p and can reach about 720p when YouTube provides it. Higher adaptive-only streams are not offered here.
