Question about quality, target and upgrade

Hi guys,

I'm debugging an issue related to how Flexget is deciding when to upgrade an already downloaded episode. This is my configuration:

settings:
  timeframe: 6 hours
  target: 1080p+ h264+
  quality: 720p+ h264+
  identified_by: ep
  upgrade: yes

So I'd expect Flexget to wait for 6 hours to see if there's a 1080p release and if not then fallback to 720p but keeping in mind that if there's ever a 1080p available I want it to download it. However, this does not seem to always work. For example, with this sequence of events:

• 720p/x264 found.
• 720p/x265 found and considered better.
• Nothing better found after 6 hours, downloading 720p/x265.
• A while later a 1080p/x264 release was available but Flexget never downloaded it.

Just a guess, could it be that Flexget is considering 720p/x265 better than 1080p/x264 (note the codec)? I'm running Flexget 2.16.0.

Thanks for reading
