Title: Anyone having stuttering framerate issues with Netflix on PS3?
Post by: Bloodwake on December 14, 2011, 06:22:34 PM
I've been using Netflix on PS3 over its Xbox counterpart for about a year now, mainly because with the PS3 Media Server and the blu-ray drive, I have made the PS3 my "multimedia" console and my Xbox a "gaming" console. However, I've been forced to switch back to the 360 the past few nights after I got a weird stuttering issue. I usually get better video quality through my PS3's Netflix as well. Anyone else having this issue?

I can't even get to the shows I wanna watch because of the interface, so unfortunately i can't test anything out

Did you turn on all the SPEs in the Cell?  PS3 has plenty of power.  You just need to know how to use it.

It's not a PS3 problem. I'm pretty sure it's a Netflix problem. I've watched countless hours of HD programming on the machine

I would argue that the PC and the 360 interface is worse. The PS3 interface isn't that bad since the last major update.

Netflix is on my new TV.  It does 1080p and 5.1.  So nice to not have to turn on another machine just to watch Netflix.
