- Rated 5 out of 5by Chris, 5 months agoDefinitely works really well!!! Easy to modify the options and verify that the changes have been applied right away! Full 1080p + under Linux, thank you so much for this!

- Rated 4 out of 5by MT430, 5 months agoI don't see any difference between 720p or FHD 1080p+ or video without addons. Seems like it doesn't work.
Update:
It works for most, but not for all videos - sometimes is 720p or even 540p when on TV is 1080 available. I.e. this one: netflix.com/watch/81488656 - addon shows 1080+, but picture is so poor like 540p.
But when it works, it works great!Developer response
posted 5 months agoAfter you start a title on Netflix, you can bring up the stats window by pressing CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+D, which would be a 100% reliable metric to judge functionality. You will see the actual streaming resolution as well as several other stats, such as audio playback to verify. Keep in mind that it will take Netflix a short time to buffer to HD resolution when you first start watching; this is normal. If you have one of the 1080p presets chosen and it is available on the title you are watching, it will match closely to the screenshot below taken today.
This addon is working as intended, as you can see from over 1,000 users and several ratings. It was also updated yesterday to reflect the most recent Netflix updates. It would be greatly appreciated if you could verify via Netflix's built-in stats in case there is a bug or a simple misunderstanding; please consider updating your very low rating.

- Rated 5 out of 5by SPC, 5 months agoThe quality on Firefox is 720p, because Netflix is a small indie company with a limited budget and fixing such things is a low priority. Thankfully this amazing plug-in exists.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Chromeyyy, 6 months agoGreat extension. Works as intended. Please if possible, make one for Prime Video. There is one for chromium based browsers, so hopefully you have the expertise to port it to firefox.
- Rated 5 out of 5by addezx, 6 months agoGreat add-on, works as intended. Too bad there's no compatibility with Netflix multi subs add-on

posted 6 months agoThank you for your report. This addon has no effect on fullscreen vs. windowed, and it is also the first report of such an issue. It is possible you might have a conflict with another addon, or even a video driver problem. Does the issue persist with a clean install of the latest Firefox and/or disabling any other addons? After your report, I've tested this addon on both Windows and Linux and have no problems with fullscreen. If trying these steps resolves your issue, or further assistance is needed, please consider a follow-up and an update to your rating. It would be greatly appreciated.- Rated 5 out of 5by 25 > 24, 6 months agoIt works. It should be illegal for Netflix to force 720p on PC's when it's a paid service. Thanks.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18412253, 7 months agoThe difference this made is honestly night and day. Not only did the resolution increase noticeably but color banding and other artifacting issues decreased massively. Gamechanger

- Rated 5 out of 5by kesou, 8 months agoThis extension is not stable. When using 5.1 Surround Sound, the E100 error sometimes occurs. And when this extension is turned on, there will be no subtitles.
Thanks to the developers for their efforts.
Update:
The problem has been fixed in the new version 1.06. You can now watch the show comfortably. I recommend you to use this extension!
Thanks again to the developers for their quick response.Developer response
