Then I renamed WEBM to AVI and upload to the forum. The forum convert AVI to MP4 in higher quality.
Interesting...

I used Ant downloader plugin for Firefox as well! But I only got the small size. Is there any way of making sure to get the bigger size?

Then I used an on-line service to convert from webm to mp4, and that is what I uploaded.

I also tried Video DownloadHelper and that gave the same size. Unfortunately that also gives the horrible QR code in the top left corner if you don't buy a licence..

I also tried 4K Video Downloader but that would not work and neither would youtube-dl. youtube-dl gave the age checking as a reason. 4K Video Downloader did not give any reason.

It seems the only real wrong turning for me was the size of download from Ant downloader, and what I need to know is how to get the bigger size that you did.

Thanks for your help!
