In researching the low resolution that Netflix is offering for The Man from Toronto via StreamFab I thought the below would be useful for various reasons for others to know.

If you do Ctrl/Alt/Shift/D in Netflix (this is part of Netflix's core interfacing) while it is running in Chrome, FireFox or Edge it will display a transparent overlay over the movie that is playing with statistics on resolution streaming and other data.

If you install the below addons from addon stores in browser you can modify the resolution being sent from Netflix for most files that are being sent as 720 to 1080.

It *didn't* change what resolution that Netflix is sending for The Man From Toronto that can only currently be downloaded as 960x540 and viewed as 960x540 in Chrome/Firefox/Edge.

The Man From Toronto also plays as 960x540 in Edge.

There's also some verbiage in one of the addon's that says "If you encounter movies stuck at 540p, that's a DRM (Widevine L3) limitation".

I don't know if that applies to The Man From Toronto, but it may.

That was useful information to know both for troubleshooting, watching (which I do on other monitor) and other various reasons.

The attachments (only show part of the overlay that deals with resolution for clarity) and are actually transparent overlays that show a lot more data while your movie is playing in browser.
