Hi everyone,
since when i'm using nowTv browser player (from chrome) i cannot change the stream resolution. Particularly i would like to lower the quality when using a metered connection, typically a mobile connection.
I cant believe that the player miss such a basic option. Do you know if it's possible to change it?
Thank you.

Now streams at 720p, namely HD Ready, unless you have Boost, when it will stream at 1080p, namely Full HD.
No UHD though, which most people regard as a disadvantage, though for you, it’s a benefit 😛
There doesn’t seem to be any way you can turn Boost off on one device, if you have it, though, so you can’t alter the resolution that way.
But avoid subscribing to Boost, and that will help a little.
if you want to use Now on a mobile though, you need a suitable data plan 😢
But tell me, what other streaming services let you alter the resolution? I know the BBC iPlayer offers SD, but who else?

Even with boost the maximum stream quality with NOW is 720p for PCs/Macs. Have a nosy at this link.
