Recently re-subscribed, but I'm having flashbacks of why I stopped....

Lappy PC with Win7, Firefox 26.0, Silverlight 5.1.20913.0
2.2 GHz CPU, 2 GB RAM.
C-drive has 37 GB free.
With Firefox browser open, it'll be under 10% CPU activity, and 1.1 GB memory in use.

Open a Netflix tab, click on a movie, and it will stream fine.
CPU activity will settle down to ~50% while streaming, with 1.2 GB memory in use.
While streaming, if I try to move forward or backward, it will start buffering, but CPU activity will go 100% and it won't finish.

Internet chat on the netflix helpline ended with them suggesting that I back up all my files and re-format the hard-drive.
I'm not happy with that proposed solution.

Oh, I've got a weekly defragment set, and I re-checked all drives, 0% fragmented.

Never had an issue with it

Not sure why you guys keep paying for Netflix.......... XBMC has every thing you want need or even thought about

Including all MotoGP and WSBK , IOMTT

every PPV event

Every movie

live TV

Every TV series ever made

xunitytalk.com

I've been seeing the same issue with IE. I switched to Chrome and had much better luck, though it hasn't been perfect.

Not aware of this websites.  I just always assume they are ridden with malware, spyware and so on.  How's you experience?

Honestly it is life changing !!

I have not paid for cable / satellite in years

As an example I watched the UFC fight the other night

Capt Phillips in HD

Saving Mr Banks in HD last night

All for free ( I use a Raspberry Pi ) but any laptop with HDMI will work 

SD
Try installing the latest ver of FF and update all addons(silverlite, flash etc..). In FF advanced options uncheck "use advanced hardware acceleration".

During installation of XMBC If you DECLINE the installation of all third party softwares you'll be good.s


happy new year guys   

Ok, I guess I'll say it.  It's free (e.g. In the case of 'saving
Mr banks') in the sense of 'i stole it so it didn't cost me
Anything'.

Thanks!

I tried that, it's still locking up in NetFlix when stepping forward or back.

It apppears that Shockwave Flash is getting into a fistfight with something, as I'll get a script warning.

Isn't using these "free" methods theft?

Theft is theft, but let the rationalization commence
