Hello, I just wanted to let you know of an issue still going on. I recently ( almost a week ago) reported an issue where Netflix previews ( when you hover on a show/ movie ) were stuttering and I received an email saying it was fixed. Now I'm on the latest dev version and the issue is still here.
Anyway, Now I have another question. Why did we lose the ability to watch Netflix/ Disney+ and other streaming services in a resolution that is higher than 720p? We used to be able to do that but now we can't.

It sounds like something may have changed on your machine to prevent high res video. Assuming you haven't changed your hardware setup, is the edge://flags/#edge-playready-drm-win10 flag still enabled (or default)? Is hardware acceleration enabled? And if you go to edge://gpu, do you see that "Compositing" is "Hardware Accelerated", "Direct composition" is "true", and "PlayReady Hardware DRM disabled" is "false"?

Everything you mentioned is on default settings. Also the options on edge://gpu are the same as you mentioned. I really can't see the issue here. Anyway, I don't know if it can have an impact but I currently have 2 monitors and they are both connected through DisplayPort cables.
