Yes,
I mean about h264ify.

Opera at its Store?
Maybe, check it out, but Chrome's is more extended,.

There is Magic Actions on both Stores.
Works fine.

@thegeneral It's the site that decides which codec will be used.

The site has their selected, but at least on YouTube, has many, as I've seen, it depends on the resolutions.

Some downloaders allows you to download the videos in different format without conversion.

Then, some extensions would serve other formats as h264ify does.

Despite that, 480 would be also VP8/9 or now also AV1.

@zalex108 YouTube basically uses VP9 or H264. Now it seems to be introducing AV1.

@thegeneral Yes, YouTube uses VP9 by default, I guess.
