It appears that although I can watch YouTube videos through Firefox for fire tv. i can't watch purchased videos - file formats not supported. Frustrating. Any workarounds?

Silk browser can play them but as it's a 4k TV with Amazon fire TV it's struggling to stream the 4k properly. If I watch in 1080p it's fine. There's no method on either browser to tweak quality options

Hi

I am not aware of any workarounds for you to watch purchase protected content through Firefox for Fire TV, but much like changing the quality options, this is a feature that may appear in a future release.
