Playready DRM Windows 10
- Thanks for your kind help and so the team's.
This is unbelievable. I have 2 laptops. One of them is for gaming and second one is for work. Gaming laptop using multi-gpu and AMD is dedicated and work laptop is basic AMD. This is how i could not see the problem's source. My mistake is just focused to software.
According to your tip, i checked the gpu, AMD is dedicated for default on my gaming laptop so that not able to run 1080p. I tried to disable but could not solve the problem. I will read some more information about this matter.
After the team's solution, i checked with my girlfriend's laptop which is using nvidia and see that all is fine with 1080p.
Now i have different problem and i hope can find solution.
By the way, hey Coddy looks like your right 🙂

Thanks again to all team and you.

There is a workaround! You need to enable either playready drm or widevine drm by using Edge flags (see 2nd picture below). And for video accelerated decoding you need to enable "override software rendering list". To test if drm video streams work you can use the website https://bitmovin.com/demos/drm . Netflix uses playready (for highest bitrate) while amazon prime uses widevine so you need to disable the other unused drm in flags. To get 4K Netflix you also need the HEVC video extensions from Microsoft: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/hevc-video-extensions-from-device-manufacturer/9n4wgh0z6vhq Nevertheless only the Netflix UWP App delivers the highest bitrate (you can see resolution bitrate with CTRL + Shift + Alt + Q ). For example I get over 5000 kBit/s at 1920x1080 pixels for movie Snowpiercer but only 2800 kBit/s at 1920x1080 in Edge.
