+.SH FORMAT SELECTION
+.PP
+By default youtube\-dl tries to download the best quality, but sometimes
+you may want to download other format.
+The simplest case is requesting a specific format, for example
+\f[C]\-f\ 22\f[].
+You can get the list of available formats using
+\f[C]\-\-list\-formats\f[], you can also use a file extension (currently
+it supports aac, m4a, mp3, mp4, ogg, wav, webm) or the special names
+\f[C]best\f[], \f[C]bestvideo\f[], \f[C]bestaudio\f[] and
+\f[C]worst\f[].
+.PP
+If you want to download multiple videos and they don\[aq]t have the same
+formats available, you can specify the order of preference using
+slashes, as in \f[C]\-f\ 22/17/18\f[].
+You can also filter the video results by putting a condition in
+brackets, as in \f[C]\-f\ "best[height=720]"\f[] (or
+\f[C]\-f\ "[filesize>10M]"\f[]).
+This works for filesize, height, width, tbr, abr, vbr, asr, and fps and
+the comparisons <, <=, >, >=, =, != and for ext, acodec, vcodec,
+container, and protocol and the comparisons =, != .
+Formats for which the value is not known are excluded unless you put a
+question mark (?) after the operator.
+You can combine format filters, so
+\f[C]\-f\ "[height\ <=?\ 720][tbr>500]"\f[] selects up to 720p videos
+(or videos where the height is not known) with a bitrate of at least 500
+KBit/s.
+Use commas to download multiple formats, such as
+\f[C]\-f\ 136/137/mp4/bestvideo,140/m4a/bestaudio\f[].
+You can merge the video and audio of two formats into a single file
+using \f[C]\-f\ <video\-format>+<audio\-format>\f[] (requires ffmpeg or
+avconv), for example \f[C]\-f\ bestvideo+bestaudio\f[].
+.PP
+Since the end of April 2015 and version 2015.04.26 youtube\-dl uses
+\f[C]\-f\ bestvideo+bestaudio/best\f[] as default format selection (see
+#5447, #5456).
+If ffmpeg or avconv are installed this results in downloading
+\f[C]bestvideo\f[] and \f[C]bestaudio\f[] separately and muxing them
+together into a single file giving the best overall quality available.
+Otherwise it falls back to \f[C]best\f[] and results in downloading best
+available quality served as a single file.
+\f[C]best\f[] is also needed for videos that don\[aq]t come from YouTube
+because they don\[aq]t provide the audio and video in two different
+files.
+If you want to only download some dash formats (for example if you are
+not interested in getting videos with a resolution higher than 1080p),
+you can add \f[C]\-f\ bestvideo[height<=?1080]+bestaudio/best\f[] to
+your configuration file.
+Note that if you use youtube\-dl to stream to \f[C]stdout\f[] (and most
+likely to pipe it to your media player then), i.e.
+you explicitly specify output template as \f[C]\-o\ \-\f[], youtube\-dl
+still uses \f[C]\-f\ best\f[] format selection in order to start content
+delivery immediately to your player and not to wait until
+\f[C]bestvideo\f[] and \f[C]bestaudio\f[] are downloaded and muxed.
+.PP
+If you want to preserve the old format selection behavior (prior to
+youtube\-dl 2015.04.26), i.e.
+you want to download best available quality media served as a single
+file, you should explicitly specify your choice with \f[C]\-f\ best\f[].
+You may want to add it to the configuration file (#configuration) in
+order not to type it every time you run youtube\-dl.
