Non Premium HQ Audio FMT's Found On Classic Track Months Ago

[TEOL85]

These audio fmts were found on a 1980s track video a couple of months ago and they are higher than 160 kbs and different from those fmts used on premium fmts I guess it was a hash code used back in the days of the 256 test era that is still used now on the videos that were put up during the test time so those few that were uploaded in those test times still take adventage of the free test version of 256 post premium era it's just that post premium era everything else is 160 max for free users since.

I guess with these 2 codes there are still a small selection of 256 available for free users we just don't know how large that deep dive library of videos available to us is which took advantage of test era 256 which still actaully give us 256 for free and haven't been downgraded to use 160 codes to this day but I guess when yt-dlp adds them into the database library we shall know exactly how many videos still take advantage of old audio formats that still work on some videos and how many are downgraded to 160 for free users these days as well.

The audio format in these fmts was also so exotic I would always get Side Download errors on any video to use these rare as hens teeth fmts until I could trick it into only getting the audio half by keep on retrying but hopefully yt-dlp using real FFMPEG it wouldn't crash at all trying to merge audio with video.

The itag/hash/fmt my alternative software which found the format come up with both these codes one is for mp4 video the other for MKV/WEBM but it is 256k m4a audio.

m3u8 and hls are the protocols the alternative software uses though so to begin with they may have to be converted into other codes to get the yt-dlp version of the codes which may be completely different as seen on the YouTube codes githubs over the years people converting m3u8 to normal codes.
