1080p playback

[BrianAllred]

The following repo is a Chrome extension enabling 1080p playback. Would it be possible to implement this?

https://github.com/truedread/netflix-1080p

I saw a reddit post about that yesterday, as far as I know chrome extensions are not supported in qtwebengine. If someone knows a way to get this to work that would awesome.

I will leave this open, I definitely want to include this but not sure how yet.

Is this using qtwebengine with the hotfix?

URL Interceptor: Netflix 1080p hotfix2 UrlRequestInterceptor.cpp

hot! @gort818 can you implement this?

[gort818]

Hmm that is interesting I did not know another project like this existed, I can try to implement this today if I have time. :)

[omni6]

hmm, i dont get it to work...

[gort818]

@omni6 What do you mean?

[omni6]

I compiled https://github.com/magiruuvelvet/LightweightQtDRMStreamViewer just for interest. but when i run it i get:

Netflix Player detected! Injecting Netflix 1080p Unlocker... js: Refused to execute script from 'https://assets.nflxext.com/en_us/ffe/player/html/cadmium-playercore-5.0008.803.011.js' because its MIME type ('text/plain') is not executable, and strict MIME type checking is enabled.

Before you make you a lot of work... try it yourself, perhaps i do something wrong. But for me it seems to be broken.

[ryanmusante]

Does it run without 1080p support? Does the application fail to compile correctly?

Submit an issue on that side and we can work together to find a solution.

[gort818]

@omni6 I just tried it, same issue as you I also tried to implement it in qtwebflix but no luck :(

[ryanmusante]

LightweightQtDRMStreamViewer has new commit which apparently fixes issue. He said if it fails again in future, he will post script.

[omni6]

[gort818]

Ok guys looks like we got it going.. I will close this for now until any issues arise.

@omni6 Then it is time for a rewatch! I know what you mean, I am trying to convince my wife to re-watch all of Stargate SG1 with me.

You guys know a way to force 1080p on HBO NOW?

[gort818]

For me hbo streams at 1080p or at least it appears to be there are not any metrics to see but it looks fantastic. This is from there website. It adjust automatically I do not think there is a way to force it.. I could be wrong but I could not find anything atm.

Is HBO NOW programming available in HD? Yes, most shows on HBO NOW are available in HD. When streaming video, HBO NOW automatically adjusts the video quality based on the download speed of your broadband connection.
