NEVER UPDATE Netflix.
It’s been patched to get Full HD on the PPM, as the regular version doesn’t support FHD normally apparently. So Philips take the latest version out there when they’re building the firmware package, patch it, and include it in the image.

I tested Netflix and it’s at best SD quality
I also tested Plex and that good. So it’s not the PPM.
The same issue with my Netflix on PPM
Perhaps you are affected by the initiative of Netflix to throttle the streams to not strain the network too much. Mine definitely goes up to 1080p. You can try the Test Pattern videos.

The online update for 1.0.29 is not being released yet, as some bugs were found during testing. However new mass production units will come with it pre-installed.
1.1.0 is on track.

Hey Prashant - thank you for the update!
Is there any news on when you want to tackle the adaptive fan control? Is it on the roadmap for an upcoming update?
Best
It’s on the roadmap, but focus is on getting 1.1.0 out the door asap.
