Provide a fall back mechanism to the next resolution/format when preferred is not available #29

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Set preferred format to a high level (720p)
2. Find a video only available in 480p
3. add that podcast to your feed program

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Would like some form of the video to download instead of just silently not 
providing anything.  Some additional possibilities:

   - Messaging a user could view in the GUI to help clear any confusion.  Something easier than Java logging.
   - Make this an option that could be turned on/off as sometimes the request just fails & some users may not want it.
   - Only fallback after a failure threshold from a persistent error.  Given the general condition of state in the program this may be difficult to make a consistent user experience.

Added the code to fall back through the different resolutions.  Did not attempt 
a failure threshold or pushing error messaging up to the GUI.

A beta build is posted that you can all try out that should resolve this bug.

If you use the JNLP file, then you will not get this build at this time.
