Not working anymore. Netflix is stuck at 1080p

Before this addon I had total **** and pixelated video in edge with a bitrate of 1Mbit compared to the 23Mbit received on my 4K TV. But now, with this addon, I have crystal clear video images even on my 2560x1440 PC monitor and a bitrate of 16Mbit. Excellent!
