Set video quality when selecting video to play

[Horea Christian]

I figured out how to set the preferred resolution via .config/pipe-viewer/pipe-viewer.conf and the "resolution" key, but I sometimes want to view specific videos at higher resolutions — is there any way to select this in the pipe-viewer interface?

This is possible by specifying the --res=... option, where ... is the wanted resolution (e.g.: 480p), or by using the shortcut equivalents: -4 (for 480p), -7 (for 720p), etc.

These options are accepted both as command-line parameters and standard input.
