Netflix Max Bitrate Firefox

Netflix Max Bitrate

Automatically override Netflix's automatically selected bitrate in favor of the highest available.

Features & Capabilities

Netflix Max Bitrate is a Firefox extension designed to automatically override Netflix's default bitrate selection by enforcing the highest available video and audio quality. It enhances streaming quality for users who want the best possible viewing experience on Netflix.

The extension requires access to Netflix's hidden bitrate menu, which can be activated using the keyboard shortcut CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + S. Although Netflix has disabled this menu, other browser extensions like "Force 1080p playback for Netflix" can restore its functionality, making them complementary tools to Netflix Max Bitrate. For those seeking alternatives without dependencies, the "Better Netflix" addon offers automatic high bitrate forcing without extra requirements.
