I normally use chromium, but I installed chrome just for prime video. That is all it is used for.
Hi AndyMH, really using Chromium I can play HD video of Amazon Prime. Some weeks ago I tried, but there was the same problem of Firefox.
In any case, good news, it works fine. Thanks.

The archwiki says that with Firefox I can only play video at 720p.

But you are right, trying with Chromium now I can see in HD. Some weeks ago it wasn't possible. Thanks.

I do not know how that situation is handled by the updater, but maybe someone else will and will be able to help you. Hi SMG, I fixed removing manually Libreoffice Still and some dependenc...
