Hi there,

Since a few weeks ago I haven't been able to download any video content in HD (flashhd or 1280x720).

I usually use the line --modes=best and it would download in HD, but now it's only downloading 832x468 resolution. I tried the line --modes=flashhd and it just produced an error. When I use --best it seems to try flashhd but then goes down to flashhvhi.

I usually just download the news bulletin's from BBC One and Newsnight, and they're all still on iPlayer in HD.

Could this have something to do with the change to 50fps streaming which get_iplayer doesn't support yet?

I'm not too technical so sorry if I've made some mistakes in this post.

Thanks,
Tom
