1.) I worked the last couple of days (weeks??) to get AMLogic Rendering on linux OS back to smoothness. For now all things are done except:
- Rewinding (have to get more details how rewinding should work, never looked at it before :-)
- mpeg1/2 packed in avi / mkv containers could have slight stutter.
Development was done together with AMLogic (thanks to my contact partners there for answering ~400 mails!!) in the linux device drivers but as well in kodi.
All those things have now to be ported into the places where they should be at the end: AMLogic repo and kodi repo.
For those having AMLogic devices (Odroid-C1/C2, WETEK) can test this development using the latest LibreELEC builds.
2.) Netflix; we'll never ever fool anybody / anything. We will make devices able to play such content in resolutions / qualities wich are allowed on this device.
Netflix has done much work to decide on a very detailed level what is allowed and what not. We'll respect this.
If your device supports 4K (Android / Widevine L1 / Netflix key), there will be a chance that you can play it in 4K using native kodi sooner or later.
On devices wich does not meet all the security prerequisites, you'll get lower resolutions (the same your browser supports)
3.) @da-anda: currently there is no bypass at all. And it's still my goal for the future to benefit 100% from all development in VideoPlayer.
This is in fact the reason, why amazon prime's new content is not "fixed". because it takes longer to implement this with not bypassing anything.
Conclusion: I have many stuff here wich has to go back to its origin now (PR, PR, PR ....) and this is what I'll do in the next time :-)
The library integration is called inputstream and is already presence.
