Output of --pvr-list is:

All PVR Searches:

pvrsearch = _Countryfile_name_tv
     category = Factual
     fields = name
     modes = 
flashvhigh,flashhigh,flashstd,flashaac,flashaacstd,flashaudio,realaudio,wma
     output = /home/phil/TV/iPlayer
     search0 = ^Countryfile$
     subtitles = 0
     thumb = 0
     type = tv
     versionlist = default

pvrsearch = _Miranda_Series_3_name_tv
     fields = name
     modes = 
flashvhigh,flashhigh,flashstd,flashaac,flashaacstd,flashaudio,realaudio,wma
     output = /home/phil/TV/iPlayer
     search0 = ^Miranda: Series 3$
     subtitles = 0
     thumb = 0
     type = tv
     versionlist = default

pvrsearch = _Speed_Dreams_name_tv
     category = Factual
     fields = name
     modes = 
flashhd,flashvhigh,flashhigh,flashstd,flashaac,flashaacstd,flashaudio,realaudio,wma
     output = /home/phil/TV/iPlayer
     search0 = ^Speed Dreams$
     subtitles = 0
     thumb = 0
     type = tv
     versionlist = default

pvrsearch = _World_s_Most_Dangerous_Roads_Series_3_name_tv
     category = Factual
     fields = name
     modes = 
flashhd,flashvhigh,flashhigh,flashstd,flashaac,flashaacstd,flashaudio,realaudio,wma
     output = /home/phil/TV/iPlayer
     search0 = ^World's Most Dangerous Roads: Series 3$
     subtitles = 0
     thumb = 0
     type = tv
     versionlist = default

As you can see, Countryfile and Miranda both have flashhd excluded from 
the modes

However I will now post the output of the PVR download log, showing that 
Countryfile downloaded last night in flashhd:
