I have the latest beta of 13.4 (17L5251a) and I just restarted my Netflix account. I can not get anything above 480p. I noticed trying to play a couple videos that the quality was very poor, then I ran the Test Patterns video where it shows your streaming stats and I'm only getting about 560K - 1750K or so at 854x480. My connection is fine (65 Mbps or so), and all other apps stream fine. I just tried Netflix support which was a total joke. I'm wondering if there's something screwy with the latest beta of tvOS and their current Netflix app. Just curious if anyone else is having an issue.

Sorry, this was not specific to the Apple TV. My web browser is doing it as well. You can ignore this.

Cant speak for the beta, but the app on the latest public build has been terrible lately; poor scrolling, hanging interface, frequent log outs... was just searching the forums to see if it was just me...

No its horrible for me as well. A reboot initially helped, but its bad again. Specially scrolling is jerky.
