Hi,

If I `--streaminfo --pid b0b9dzbx' then it includes this output,
reformatted for clarity.

                                           fps kbps

On downloading, output includes

    INFO: Downloading tv: 'This Week - 05/07/2018 (b0b9dzbx) [original]'
    INFO: Downloaded: 719.21 MB (00:48:21) @ 100.94 Mb/s (hvfxsd1/bi) 
[audio+video]

The only `hvfxsd1' in the stream info is the third line, 704x396,
but `ffmpeg -i' correctly says `960x540',

    Stream #0:0(und): Video: h264 (Main) (avc1 / 0x31637661),
        yuv420p(tv, bt709), 960x540 [SAR 1:1 DAR 16:9], 1586 kb/s, 25
        fps, 25 tbr, 90k tbn, 50 tbc (default)

that means one of the last was retrieved, `hvfxsd2' or `hvfxsd3'.
Presumably `hvfxsd2' because that's a `bidi' that matches the `bi' CDN
in the claimed `hvfxsd1/bi'?

Am I misunderstanding, or is get_player misleading when stating the
stream?
