Interesting how I once again get the low-resolution audiodescribed
version despite those ‘Downloaded’ showing the ‘/ll’ CDN. If I download
it a third time, adding ‘--exclude-supplier bidi’ then I upgrade again
to technical, still /ll.

I used:

on the command line, and the program downloaded as version 'technical':

That's curious. AD is, of necessity, in the audio track. If it's actually
present, VLC would have to play it.

Hi Ralph
The versions field is telling you the available versions, and the end of
the filename is telling you the version you downloaded. I can't see
anything in what you have shown which suggests you got the

won't get

Oh, download_history, good idea. I add each manually to the PVR.
Here's my episodenum, mode, versions, and the end of the filename.

Episodes 1, 5 and 7 are original, the rest technical.
All are audiodescribed.
