W8/10 native Netflix client streams videos in 1080p (1920x1080 pixels) @ 5800 kilobits per second.
However, Chrome/Chromium doesn't, irrespective of OS. It's locked to 720p (1280x720) @ 3000kb/s. So, that's about our limit in Linux until patched otherwise.

Netflix is using DRM to restrict its highest quality streams to few devices/applications. 'Tis a shame, dear Netflix developers (in case any of them ever read this).
The thing is... I don't want to reboot into Windows when I plug my laptop to my TV. I just wanna roll Netflix 1080p @ 5800kbps on Linux.
Does anyone know of any workaround/"patch"/whatever achieves this rather simple wish?
Thanks, pals
