NEW ADD-ON VERSIONS RELEASED (Kodi v18/v19/v20)
For those who did not read my previous post (https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...pid3120951):
Netflix has introduced early December new changes to its website to keep track of devices using your account,
these changes introduced a new limitation or a website server bug (its not clear at today yet).
The problem is that after about 22 hours the ESN will be downgraded to 540p resolution
In addition, if you set/use in the add-on the official android device ESN, it will be downgraded to 540p for an unknown period of time,
If you have used the device original android ESN and you are stuck at 540p also in your official app,
you can only contact customer support because at the moment there are no known solutions to this problem.
In the new add-on update has been added a workaround that will change ESN every 22h automatically to keep HD resolutions,
this behaviour can be disabled on add-on "Widevine / ESN" expert settings,
where you can also manually Reset the ESN to force change the ESN.
Known side effect on Android:
Every time the ESN will be changed by the add-on workaround, you will be notified by e-mail that a new device has logged in.
I still remind you, dont copy the official device app ESN to the add-on,
otherwise you will also limit the official app to 540p for an unknown period of time.
Weird countries/cities on the account page "Manage access and devices":
I called the service customers and i have explained this anomaly which "Manage access and devices" page reports logins
to foreign countries or countries/cities we have never visited, they replied that they are aware of this website problem and that
we have to ignore the reported countries/cities as it is not reliable information, so this is not a problem related to this add-on.
As of today, this is the situation, so far no better solution has been found for Android devices.
