Some users have reported that Netflix is not working on their projector from the computer and other devices. Usually, Netflix won’t play on the projector due to incorrect settings configuration and audio/video format incompatibility. This issue may also be caused by trying to display DRM protected content. In this case, using a browser to view Netflix will fix the problem instantly.
What can I do if Netflix is not working on the projector?
1. Setup the projector to work with Netflix
If you are using the Windows 10 Netflix app, you may not project some content due to protected content settings. It is advised that you use an open-source web browser like Chrome / Edge to play Netflix content from the web.

3. Update the browser
4. Try a different browser
If the previous solution didn’t help, you might want to try using a different browser. There are many great browsers on the market, but you may need to choose one based on your online activities.
Netflix does not work the same way in all browsers since they all work differently.
If you choose one of its free rivals, you will almost certainly get considerably superior image quality. An interesting fact about Chrome is that it only supports Netflix in 720p quality, but other browsers can stream Netflix in 4K resolution.
