I believe Netflix only uses HEVC compressed video streaming when playing back 4K Ultra-HD on a 2160p HEVC capable decoding device.
And Ultra-HD Netflix works with this MM Firmware

For 1080p streams H.264/AVC is used.
And yes regular 1080p streams playback perfectly fine with Marshmallow test Firmware when using the Android TV OS version of Netflix.
Netflix 5.1 Audio is only available if connected to an AVR on the Hub with test MM Firmware.

Hi, wrxtasy i was also convinced about this until @ChristianTroy point this out, so I've searched and it seems that some movies are also encoded in hevc at 1080p resolution (6.96 Mbit)

Unfortunately the sample video in anandtech's article is not available, at least in my country kernel log report h264 codec for all video that I've played so I was wondering if it depends on my line (as I think :'( ) , subscription or something else..
