flickr oembed not returning images larger than 500px wide

I'm trying to use oEmbed in my website. I need to use large images (at least 700px wide).

I try to use this code: 

http://www.flickr.com/services/oembed?url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/majdal/4035572180/sizes/l/in/photostream/&format=xml&minwidth=1000

But the image returned is less than 700px wide...

Is there a way to force flickr to return larger images?

We have corrected this issue and now Flickr oembed call will return higher resolution images (up to 1024px in biggest dimension).

Seems to be a internal flickr restriction. At least I already saw this discussion inside the flickr api group one year ago and there was no answer: http://www.flickr.com/groups/api/discuss/72157623040761625/

Are those images larger than 700px on Flickr? Any chance you could use the PHP API? (http://phpflickr.com/)
