I tried to watch Arcane today but I only get it in 960x540 resolution.
Pretty much every other show works with 1080p just fine. Just today I tried for example Stranger Things, Interstellar, Friends, Squid Game. They all worked at 1080p.
I have LibreELEC 9.2.8 running on a RPi 400. Netflix add-on version 1.12.8. InputStream 2.4.8.1 with widevine 4.10.2252.5 (14092.77.0).
Any ideas?
OK, I think I got it. I had the option "Enable vp9 profiles" disabled, so that I would force it to use H.264, which has hardware decoding ok RPi. But it seems this show simply doesn't have an 1080p stream in H.264. I enabled vp9 profiles and now I get a 1080p. I was afraid it would lag or something because of software decoding, but it looks fine so far.
Well, that wasn't it. Later that day, without changing anything in the settings, I found myself with 960x540 again. This time, all streams vp9. I ended up disabling vp9 profiles again, which gave me 1080p back. Weird stuff.
I guess it's possible that some episodes only have a 1080p stream on vp9 and others only H.264. I don't know, I didn't check. In any case, if anyone has this issue, just know that toggling that option (Enable vp9 profiles) in the settings may help.
Let's just hope this is not a first step from a nasty move by Netflix to leave Kodi users without 1080p, like it is with Prime and Disney+.
