Hi,
Currently running the Netflix plugin on some RPi's, but obv not getting 4k, or even 1080p. Looking to upgrade my Kodi boxes, mostly to view 4k. Reading back thu this thread I did get a little lost, so have a few catch-up questions.
1. Can the plugin play 4k only on devices with Widevine L1 hardware? I'm sure this is yes
2. Does this mean it can ONLY play on Android devices, not Linux based Kodi's like LibreElec?
3. If it works on Kodi on hardware with Widevine DRM L1 support, does it play directly within Kodi via the plugin, or does it need to run in the native Netflix android App?
4. I also have Amazon & Disney+ plugins working through the Widevine input-stream plugin. If Netflix can be made to work in 4k via the plugin (on L1 hardware), should those work in 4k too?
Finally,
Is there a list of devices that will currently support Kodi in 4K for these DRM content sources? It seems the Shield does, but are there others?
Thanks.
