Hi,

I've got no problem to download the mainstream video from Culturebox.
But the thing is, by defaut, they sent the stream in 704x396.
And i know there's another version which is in 1280x720.(much more better)
So i'd like to know what's the code or how can i download the high resolution video.

That's the code. We can see that version in the code. I've seen that in the browser.
I need your help, guys.
Thanks very much!!

@jaimeMF commented on GitHub (Jul 28, 2014):

Thanks for the report, in the next version youtube-dl will download the best resolution (and you can select other formats).

I'm keeping the issue open, because the resolution is not extracted for some videos (like http://www.francetvinfo.fr/replay-jt/france-3/soir-3/jt-grand-soir-3-lundi-26-aout-2013_393427.html), I'll work on them (we need to parse the m3u8 manifest).
