Hi All,

I guess this is more a feature request than a bug report. It appears that a few months ago, Kickstarter started allowing project creators to upload videos in 720p, however youtube-dl currently doesn't support this.

If I run it and attempt to download a video, I only get the 640x360 res mp4. Sample debug output is below.

Example project: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mccaskellgames/last-one-standing-the-battle-royale-board-game

I've had a quick poke around for this specific project, and found:
https://ksr-video.imgix.net/projects/3288729/video-873158-hls_playlist.m3u8

Inside this playlist are two more, one for the lower res video, and one for 720p.

#EXTM3U
#EXT-X-STREAM-INF:PROGRAM-ID=1,BANDWIDTH=5443578,AVERAGE-BANDWIDTH=4028862,CODECS="avc1.64001f,mp4a.40.2",RESOLUTION=1280x720
video-873158-hls_720.m3u8
#EXT-X-STREAM-INF:PROGRAM-ID=1,BANDWIDTH=2173581,AVERAGE-BANDWIDTH=1593149,CODECS="avc1.64001e,mp4a.40.2",RESOLUTION=640x360
video-873158-hls_high.m3u8

It would be great if someone could update the extractor to support these higher resolution videos!
