You did not give any examples so I'm assuming you did not
try "-f fmt18".

Note that fmt18 (mp4) may not always be available for reasons
unknown to me. All of the hosts and the formats that they support
are covered in the FORMATS section of the manual page.

I also recommend reading the change log from time to time.
It's not just a list of technical changes in the program as
one might assume:

Or here (development):
