Has anyone managed to get BootCampDrivers working with Netflix 4K streaming / Microsoft Edge PlayReady 3.0? I thought AMD added PlayReady 3.0 support from 18.4.1 onwards, for Polaris?
I have a Macbook Pro with Radeon Pro 560X (Polaris 21, I think). And I can not get it working with Netflix 4K streaming. Have tried both Edge Browser and Windows Netflix app. Can only do 1080p Netflix streaming in Windows 10 Pro.
I also downloaded the HEVC codec from Microsoft Store.
I have a 4K HDCP 2.2 TV as a monitor, and HDMI 2.0 to USB-C cable, and its outputting at 60Hz
I have 4K Netflix plan, and my broadband is fast enough.
I can watch Netflix in 4K when using Samsung's TV's Netflix app.

Updated to the BootCampDrivers 18.11.1, still unable to get Netflix to stream at 4K.
Is support for Microsoft Edge PlayReady 3.0 for Radeon Pro 560X (found in the 2018 15 inch macbooks) something that AMD has to do? Or something that can be included in the BootCampDrivers?
As previously mentioned I thought AMD added PlayReady 3.0 support from 18.4.1 onwards, for Polaris?
I assume AMD must have only added for certain cards (ie the desktop cards), and not the whole (mobile) Polaris range?

Jonathan, is the HDMI 2.0 to USB-C cable HDCP-compliant? If not, then PlayReady is likely balking. If it is HDCP-compliant, then I have no idea. (Apologies if this was already obvious.)

Finally with 18.12.3 V3 can watch Netflix in 4K! (3840x2160 and at 60FPS). (Yes the cable was already HDCP 2.2)
Working in both Microsoft Edge Browser and Windows Netflix app
So glad this issue has finally been resolved. Have made a small donation to show my appreciation.
