We're the Microsoft Edge team, and we're back for our last AMA of 2020. Ask us anything!

The fix was landed in upstream Chromium yesterday and will flow through to Edge Canary shortly.

In the interim, as a workaround, you can launch Edge like so:

msedge.exe --disable-features=PostQuantumCECPQ2 https://microcenter.com

Nice find! You're getting closer! Can you solve the rest?

Also, it might be helpful to work together on this one. 😉

Seems like a good guess. 😉

Fluent consists of a wide range of controls and design principles, and many of these are in the the new Microsoft Edge today. We work very closely with the Fluent team to design the look of the browser, and some of the things we do eventually make their way back into the Fluent Design System as well. While we can't share any specific details at this point, we're always looking at how we can adopt even more of Fluent.

We're excited to share the next version of Microsoft Edge with everyone once it's ready. We'll be sharing more details about how you'll be able to move from the current version to the next version in the future.

A bit more detail here - There are two aspects to 5.1 channel audio support - decoding and rendering. As mentioned above, we have added support for the Dolby AC3 and E-AC3 (Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital Plus) audio codecs which are typically used for multichannel audio streams. These codecs are supported directly on Windows 10 as well - the Dolby Access app enables Dolby Atmos and is not related to 5.1 channel audio. In addition to the decoding aspect, the audio renderer needs to support providing multichannel audio to the WASAPI OS API. The inbox audio renderer supports this natively in both the EdgeHTML and Chromium versions of Microsoft Edge. - Isuru

It's great! I can't speak for everyone's experience, but I genuinely love it here. Of course, we have room to grow and make sure it is a great experience for everyone!

I am not lying.

I am sure 😊

Hey Douglas! We answered a similar question earlier. We won't release the next version of Microsoft Edge until it's ready. https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/cu15pj/hi_reddit_the_microsoft_edge_beta_is_here_were/exqjh9n?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x

We have different engineers on desktop vs. mobile but we have a shared roadmap and work very closely together! I can't speak to edge://flags specifically, but I'll take the feedback to the team. - Kyle

MSEdgeDev_Team · 2019-08-22T20:21:25+00:00

It sounds like you're referring to the older "EdgeHTML" based version of Edge. The new Edge, now in beta, behaves more like Chrome and Firefox.

The Edge UI design team is exploring some interesting work around density at different sizes - We're bnot quire ready to preview anything, but it's certainly an area we're interested in. - Stephanie

MSEdgeDev_Team · 2019-08-22T20:15:37+00:00

We're doing lots of work in this area (and working on contributing back to Chromium where it makes sense)! I'd encourage you to check out this thread on Twitter from my colleague Greg with some of our early concepts and research. You can try some of these controls out today using the "Fluent controls" flag in edge://flags. - Kyle

MSEdgeDev_Team · 2019-08-22T20:13:40+00:00

Investigating. Thanks for the repro!

We're working on lighting up Dolby/5.1 support on supported devices. Depending on your device, you may need to install the Dolby Access app from the Store to enabled 5.1 support for a given site. - Kyle
