I'm trying to download Dracula from iPlayer, but the highest resolution youtube-dl is showing me is 720p. Sorry if it's something that should be easy to do, I'm new to this and have previously used get_iplayer for iPlayer downloads, but the forum there said to use youtube-dl.

Here's what I got for episode 1.

I believe anything >720p comes via https://securegate.iplayer.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/ the problem is you can only access that url with specific Trusted CAs, here's an old url which talks about it, but it still appears to apply - I haven't managed to get any further as a result
