HD video playback from streaming services
HD video playback from streaming services
Apart from the obvious nautical themed solutions, are there any ways around streaming services not allowing HD video playback on Linux? Prime video is the one I’ve noticed it with the most, I haven’t tried Disney plus yet but I’m expecting it to be similar. I’ve been dual booting for a while now and this is the main thing keeping me on Windows at the moment.

Personally what I have seen so far, Netflix and Disney+Hotstar (here a popular OTT platform Hotstar and Disney merged and this is the result) works pretty well and I can watch it HD (never tried 4K because I don'thave any 4K device). It's just Amazon Prime that doesn't just HD playback among all the OTT services I have used so far.
Ah ok, I’d heard Netflix had the issue as well but I don’t use it so I couldn’t confirm. Maybe it’s time to reconsider my prime subscription, although I do still use it for 1 day delivery
You’re never going to stream above 720p/1080p on Linux from any service besides YouTube.
