    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 🙂

    I am so appreciate to see such a this help Deleted.
    Thanks again to all team and you.
    Regard

Maybe you can try enable "override software rendering list". I tested again and unfortunately my old laptop has very high cpu usage with HD 1080p on Amazon Prime with only Widevine enabled. PlayReady DRM Only Microsoft old Edge browser plays video accelerated HD 1080p with PlayReady DRM on my laptop does not work with Edge Chromium anymore. Is it possible that the new Edge Chromium is not as tightly integrated into Windows as Legacy Edge?

Problem solved! I visited https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftedge/forum/all/how-can-i-revert-to-old-edge-version/30ab05e3-e4a5-4b0a-b6a3-84754742344f?page=1&rtAction=1592992837485 and could restore legacy edge which was overwritten by a windows update for Edge Chromium. Now i have both Edge Beta and Legacy Edge and PlayReady DRM works in both browsers! 🙂

    Find where the problem is, enter edge://version/ in the browser, find the default folder, then completely close the edge program, delete the default folder, and reopen the browser, it should be the edge configuration file and PlayerReady DRM happened Conflicts, remember to backup a bookmark data before operation, because this operation may cause data loss，sorry my english is not very good, this is the translated answer.My PlayReady DRM and Netflix are working fine now
