This (Serie from 2024) is released after DRM change from Jan 25

So you have not "doing something wrong"

Thank your answer, another question, it took about 15 to 20 minutes for 1 episode to get to 480p. Do you think that's much better even with the upscaling? What about the poor quality of the audio? I asked for HEVC and got AVC, I asked for CBR (many times) and got CBVR. This is not a fix, it's an embarrassment. Can anyone explain to me what were the devs thinking when they called this a temporary fix?

I can't see any upscaling - with ep2 I checked \Temp\outputTemp
The downloaded video is encoded 960x480 528kbps
re-encoded result: 960x480 625kbps

I know, but can't change

If even the mods don't know that...
