Any way to force it to never play HD streams on abc iview and only do SD? #3071

Hi @frumbert We're currently working on a feature for Kodi 17+ users that would allow adaptive bitrate switching, which would allow you to have the best of both worlds - HD when your internet is being nice, and SD at Netflix o'clock.

In the meantime though, a small 1 line edit is all you would need to remove the HD streams: In the add-on's lib/resources folder. In parse.py change the line (line 188 in the most up to date code, if not on your copy it will be nearby) from p.url = item['playlist'][-1]['hls-plus'] to p.url = item['playlist'][-1]['hls-high']

@andybotting should we consider a settings option for this, default to on?

@glennguy Yeah, a setting would be ideal, because fraudband :(
