Yes, that's what I downloaded. On a quick flip through in VLC it all
seems to be there. However, the HVF downloader also shows the HVFHD
download size for episode 4 as being 2325Mb, whereas the downloaded file
that I have is only 898Mb, is certainly complete as I've watched the
entire episode, and is, according to both VLC and Mediainfo,
1280x720 at 50fps using the H.264 codec.
