changing youtube 720p 480p 1080p settings in vlc

Question

I can watch youtube videos using vlc and the lua file

You can run the latest Lua script for extracting YouTube streams by downloading the appropriate file into your home directory. There's no need to delete or modify system-level files. This works just fine:

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/playlist/
curl 'https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/-/raw/master/share/lua/playlist/youtube.lua' -o ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/playlist/youtube.lua

or with wget:

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/playlist/
wget -q -O - 'https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/-/raw/master/share/lua/playlist/youtube.lua' > ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/playlist/youtube.lua

But how can I change the video settings from 720p to 480p or 1080p.
