Guess the best solution for now is to keep Kodi running on my rpi, and buy a cheap MiBox for Netflix, MyCanal and chromecast (with the refresh rate by application utility)

For what it's worth, my wife insisted we get a Netflix sub the other day so I went and installed the Netflix add-on to my Odroid-N2 running CoreELEC 9.0.3.  i got the addon from here (https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=329767).  It was a bit complicated to set up, but I got it going no problem.

In that thread I mentioned I was only getting 720p, but it's varying depending on the selection.  I just watched a movie on Neftlix that was coming down the pipe at 1080p.  Of course I don't get HW acceleration, but with the N2's powerful processor CPU utilization didn't get past 30% and it didn't even get warm.  Picture quality was perfect with audio passthru decoded by my AVR. 

The N2 is doing the scaling for Netflix content that is not 1080p (TV is 1080p) and it seems to do a good job.  All in all I'm a pretty happy Netflix user.
