Netflix audio issues
There are some issues that have been discussed in the thread such as the app’s support for surround audio, for instance. One user asked the following question: “Wouldn’t audio bitrate being higher simply be a factor of the Netflix app supporting surround audio instead of just stereo? Or is it higher even with stereo content”. The answer that this question got was that 96 kbps are pretty good since the codec is able to reduce bitrate in quiet areas and bumps the parts that require it. On the other hand, it seems that CBR encoding such as most MP3s will not perform that great in this situation.
Improve Netflix PiP resolution in Chrome
It seems that the resolution and also the bitrate can be enhanced in Chrome 720p to 1080p with an extension. “I should note that the extension seems to work for most Netflix originals but not for some movies. Use Ctrl+Shift+Alt+D to see the current resolution in Netflix,” according to the user who found this extension. Other users have tried it and found out that this works depending on the material. Someone said that the test-samples on Chrome gave the same bitrate as the Netflix app with the plugin, but, on the other hand, the two movies that were tested did nothing. It’s also important to note that for the moment, for videos, Microsoft Edge and Netflix app are now tied, and the app has higher audio bitrate. RELATED STORIES TO CHECK OUT:
