the video site was actually given in the subject (YouTube) and as any video with
a HD versions shows this bug for me, I didn't add an example URL. But, here you
go, the first URL with HD content, that was shown on the landing page:
<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gx9M94dZWI>.

If I download it with clive -f best, I get the 360p version instead of the
expected 1080p. If I invoke clive with -f mp4_1080p instead, I do get the HD
version.

Kind regards,
Kai Wasserbäch
