Description

Chaturbate streams offer multiple bitrates and it would be nice to be able to select a different bitrate instead of always getting the max bitrate available.

List the available formats with -F or --list-formats:

[info] Available formats ...
format code  extension  resolution note
0            mp4        426x240     488k , avc1.42c015, mp4a.40.2
1            mp4        854x480    1258k , avc1.4d401f, mp4a.40.2
2            mp4        1280x720   3396k , avc1.4d401f, mp4a.40.2
3            mp4        1920x1080  5628k , avc1.640028, mp4a.40.2 (best)

Select a resolution with -f ... or --format ..., eg to select format 0 here, -f 0.

Also, RTFM.
