Observed behavior and screenshots
When downloading a single video, the user can select the desired output format.
However, when downloading a playlist, there is no option to select the download format. The playlist is downloaded using the default WebM format instead.
This causes an error when the application attempts to embed the thumbnail, since WebM is not a supported format for thumbnail embedding:
*ERROR: Postprocessing: Supported filetypes for thumbnail embedding are: mp3, mkv/mka, ogg/opus/flac, m4a/mp4/m4v/mov
