Netflix
candleguy This is the help/support post that I was thinking about:
From the thread "Offering feedback in build and asking for help", Elliot Kirk (an MS employee who monitors this forum): "If you are stuck and need help getting unstuck, we have support ready to assist you. You can find our help by clicking the '...' and then selecting 'Help and Feedback' and finally 'Help'. You can shortcut all that by pressing F1, or just clicking this link: https://microsoftedgesupport.microsoft.com/hc/en-us"
tomscharbachNetflix works fine for me...Windows 10 Version 1903 OS Build 18362.86 64-bit and Edge Version 76.0.147.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit).
I use Windows 10 Security, and no third party AV program.
No problems playing Netflix, Vimeo, Youtube, etc.

Netflix works fine for me, too. (Dev 75.0.139.4, stock W10 1809, Windows Defender, no bells or whistles in either W10 or the Edge Chromium browser).
However, quite a number of people are reporting issues with Netflix in the Edge Chromium, not unlike the problems that were reported in Edge (Classic) in 2017.
I don't know what is causing the issues for those who have them. The only thing I can suggest is to document the issue as carefully as possible, and report the issue to Feedback and https://microsoftedgesupport.microsoft.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?. Windows is pushing the envelope on streaming, and issues are inevitable.
Our job as testers is to provide Microsoft with as much information as possible so that Microsoft can identify, replicate and resolve the issues.
