cmp_modes() is unrelated to which modes are available for download. If you want to see where --tvmode=best is expanded, look at modelist(). If you want to see where unavailable streams are filtered out of that expanded list, look at download_retry_loop(). If you want to know why streams were unavailable to Nick, see my last post.
