New Microsoft Edge wont play HDR videos in YouTube

Anonymous

As the title describes, I cannot play/ see HDR YouTube videos - the option is not available any more from the resolution selection.

With previous Edge (prior to 15/01/2020) I could and I could also choose a higher resolution from my screen's native one.

I would like to point out also, that neither Chrome and Firefox provide such option - I really cannot understand why but my issue here is with Edge.

Yes, my screen is HDR capable.

I would highly appreciate any help into solving this matter.

Thank you in advance!

    There is not a single soul from Microsoft who can explain to these poor souls why they are unable to access HDR Youtube through Edge?

    Just Amazing... after 4 pages of ... time waste.
