Only delivers 5.1 audio for the autoplay preview. Once you start the movie / show, the audio reverts back to stereo
ITS NOT WORKING AS OF 3 OCT 2024 FIX IT PLEASE
Why this extension didn't work suddenly?
not working
When the plug-in was compatible... It worked great. Flags the Netflix service to provide 5.1 HD audio stream. I am unsure of bitrate or sub-formatting/standards in use, it seems to be at least 48khz, but I get different results inspecting the audio payload across movies/shows, which is acceptable and agrees with realistic experience (Netflix must provide 'best effort' VBR, lossless would eat up a ton of throughput, but I can't be 100% on that, this is an educated guess). Like others are saying, suddenly caused a playback error with Netflix; you can't start any video stream without getting a critical error. Big thank you to the devs, thank you for your work. Please do update the module, if at all possible. If it was working as it did for the last few months, this review would be 5/5.
Breaking Netflix ><. I'll update if it get fixed.
25 March 2024 .. breaking Netflix on Chrome :(
was working recently, but does no longer work. Im will update this review if there get a update for it.
Was working great till 9/26/24 what happened? please fix i love this extension who wants to watch a movie in 2.1
Unfortunately this is now breaking Netflix in both Chrome and Safari - Once turned off all is working again.
Doesn't output 5.1 - only front channels and LFE (as previous comment also mentioned). I suspect this is on the Netflix / Chrome side. A few weeks ago the output was even worse - it was a derived centre channel. At least now it gives you the actual centre channel from the 5.1 stream.
Only L/C/R/Lfe, no Ls Rs channels here
Despite all the raving reviews, most of which seem fake, it's not really amazing.
