Seems pretty cool, i don't want that bad enough to pay for a netflix account though. If i had one already i would be really happy.

Anyone actually tried this? I am wondering what the quality would be like. It doesn't have to be amazing, but as long as its watchable i might have to get my netflix account back.

Hi
I don’t have so much idea regarding this subject. Just I suggest you to take steps accordingly.

wow this is old news. didn't xbscene report on this early last week? from what the previous vid showed it seems a bit slow but once the movie starts its cool. personally i hate using media center on my vista machine. it seems slow as molasses. I much prefer using TVersity.

I haven't tried this with the Media Center plug-in being used in this video but I can tell you that the quality of the stream to the Roku Netflix Player is excellent. The movies load in less than 5 seconds and rival standard DVDs. My wife and I are addicted to the Netflix streamer (we've used it nearly every night since we got the player a few months ago).

You still need Media Center for this, which is not included in Vista Home Basic (which I got with my computer but never used) or Business (which I got for free). I didn't want to pay for Ultimate, and Home Premium is not offered with Dell Vostros.
Of course, I don't have Netflix anyway tongue.gif.

This works.
Like a poster above, my family is addicted to the streams.

I use this method, plugin and xbox 360 watching aloha scooby doo right now with the kids.

It's a bit buggy but worth the lil work (just a matter of re-init'ing it enough till it actually initializes), other than that.. this is worth every cent.

Can you you use the watch now featurefrom your360 or do you have to download first?
