--before not working on films

I recently started using the argument --before 24 to ensure that everything 
was at least 24 hours old before downloading. The intention of this was to 
give the BBC time to get HD versions up (where applicable).

This works fine for everything but films. I have a pvr search that simply 
grabs everything in the category film. No films get downloaded unless I 
remove the --before 24 option. I've checked the films have been out longer 
than 24 hours.

Anyone else notice this?

Cheers,

Dan
