Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

Observed behaviour: When downloading a video from https://media.ccc.de without specifying the desired video quality, a 720x576 video is downloaded.
Expected behaviour: The highest resolution video would be downloaded. In this case "eng-fra-deu-webm-hd - 1920x1080" or maybe "eng-fra-deu-h264-hd - 1920x1080".
Workaround: add command line argument "-f eng-fra-deu-webm-hd"

[dstftw]

eng-fra-deu-webm-sd has higher filesize that takes precedence over resolution.
