NetFlix Streamers Get a Surround Sound Update Starting With the PS3


Recommended Posts

I actually checked last night just to check for some reason and nothing yet, I plan on doing it when I get home from work today, which will be 8-9 hours or so since the day is just starting.

Yeah, same here.

It's out now. Took about 3 mins total to download it and the update. Testing Yellowstone HD right now... I have 5.1 surround... YAY! The video quality is the same though, and in the smoke of this video, you can see the compression showing itself lol.

The menu is a little laggy. The cursor doesn't move over quick enough when you press. And there might be a little stutter due to the increase of audio..... hard to tell, but seems like it on some fast scenes.

Is it a total system update or an individual app update?

Icon appears under Video automatically, once you click the icon it will prompt you to download the Netflix app.

It's a app update, I was able to download it last night but could not use it until this morning. I personally do not like it, the interface to me is slow and clunky and I personally like the current Wii look and my favorite is still the 360 with the new NXE Beta.

Thanks. (Y)

I guess I will see. I do zero searching on any of the apps, I still do all of the management on the Netflix site itself, so as long as it is easy to get to my Instant Queue and that is not all that buggy, it will suit my needs and I can live with it for the addition of 5.1.

I'm with you on this.... just something is sooo off on this UI. I dislike how everything in the front if all cramped down. I really dislike how slow it is. And I feel there should be some sort of option for settings somewhere lol. I like how though the descriptions for movies now tell you if it is HD and 5.1, though they need really a section for those items alone, so I don't waste time clicking through movies trying to find one that will be decent. And it seems to be missing all the cats it had before, like Horror, Gory Horror, Comedy... I just see a couple of them atm, but not all that there was before.

Looks like someone finally agrees with me LOL, to me the 360 and Wii are the best with the 360 being number one IMO.
