- trueismywork 7mo ago720p using widevine. I play it. It works. Even if I disable DRM in my main browser. And only isolate it to my Netflix account.
- haunter 7mo agoYou can get 1080p on Linux with Opera https://help.netflix.com/en/node/30081 https://help.netflix.com/en/node/30081
- SahAssar 7mo agoWeird, why just on opera? It uses the same engine (chromium) as many other browsers.
- h4ch1 7mo agoI'm guessing because of a higher widevine certification level or a server-side policy? You can also spoof Opera's user agent and get 1080p on FF so guessing it's a server-side thing; since Linux has L3 widevine certification because no kernel level TEE
- godelski 7mo agoI have no issues on Firefox FWIW. I haven't needed to spoof the user agent, though this is something I needed to back in the day when they literally blocked FF's user agent.
- 3eb7988a1663 7mo agoIs that through a dedicated Netflix profile or is there a way to enable DRM per site?
- himata4113 7mo agothe magic trick is just to not, netflix won't even stream you 4k 90% of the time even if you do have all the requirements.
- nextaccountic 7mo agowhy won't they?
- himata4113 7mo agoBandwidth costs money, less bandwidth = less money spent. I have noticed that if you use a vpn you will get 1080p at best, 720p more often than not.
- drnick1 7mo agoThis is just a DE for Linux, it does not solve the problem that DRM is incompatible with a free platform. Get your content from another source than Netflix.
