Dragon Ball Z resolution problem

Greekgod88

I downloaded the entire Dragon Ball season from Amazon Prime in 1080p, perfect. I wanted to do the same with Dragon Ball Z but it only downloads in 480p, why? Will this be fixed?

Why do you think it is offered better?

It's available in 29 PrimeVideo countries but not mine ..
.. at Crunchroll it requires Premium (don't have)
and at Netflix Japan I get s01e01+s10e01 in 576x432

You can only try if a other seasons offer more
(perhaps only one season is offered in 480p)

Germania

Even in France it is no really better (ad-supported):

I have tried many episodes of different seasons (dbz) and they are always 480p. I don't think that on Amazon Prime servers they are 480p also because the quality seen on the Amazon Prime Video App is definitely higher

No problem with 1080p at PrimeVideo detected:

how did you do it?

Germania

Nothing special - just like always ..
.. except that my PrimeVideo Trial Country does not offer English
(tested via Prime/VPN Mexico)

Is Italian language available?

In Mexico? - of course not (es-419, pt-BR, ja-JP)

I assume Italian is only offered in Italy ..
.. where outside Italy do people speak Italian? (partially in CH)

If you get the same length in Italy, you can remux the audio from the 540p files.

In Italy is 25fps (4:3) offered - in Mexico 23.976fps (16:9)

but the longer time is only the credits, which are missing in Italy

Ok, chissà se aumenteranno la risoluzione dei video a 1080 anche in italia. L'unica cosa strana è che sul televisore, su amazon prime video, i video dbz sembrano avere una risoluzione maggiore rispetto a quella offerta da streamfab. Vabbè, vedremo se cambierà qualcosa.Ok, I wonder if they will increase the video resolution to 1080 in Italy too. The only strange thing is that on the TV, on amazon prime video, dbz videos seem to have a higher resolution than the one offered by streamfab. Oh well, we'll see if anything changes.

SF can't use the pv app - so only the offer in Chrome is relevant ..
.. if it was a bug in SF - why does 1080p work in Mexico and for you're other title?

Play in regular browser with filter: mpd (like here)
and you will see that only SD is offered

I have tried three SF versions and always get 720x576 as maximum in Italy+Switzerland
