same for me. most shows are getting way lower bitrate comparing edge and windows app even though both get same res 1080P

It seems that the extension only works for Netflix Originals and so.

Wow, I guess Netflix forces us to use Edge in the end

The new good Chromium Edge that works on Windows 7 also doesnt support 1080p

lkmvip commented 5 years ago

This is because of DRM, Windows 7 does not have DRM, and DRM was introduced after Windows 8. So the best viewing environment on Windows is WIN8 and above and EDGE or NetflixAPP.

And Windows10 is a more stable version of win8, so now basically use Windows10

and use edge not Chromium Edge

Closing as major changes have been made that have probably fixed this.
