I don't know how to put this, but, I'm kind of a big deal.

Default Stream Netflix to Your Xbox 360 Console

Stumbled upon vmcNetflix the other day, and after a little bit of troubleshooting, I got it working. Video quality is decent on my 65" widescreen HDTV, and overall a nifty (and free) alternative to the $99 Roku player, if you already own an Xbox 360 console.

Thats awesome, I wonder if it works for PS3?

I think the WMP plug-in is the speed bump for the PS3.

What's "decent" though with your fat screen Paul? We have a 1920 x 1080 46" and it seems pretty good. Just a little blotchy if you look for it, but ya...otherwise a fine picture.

I'd define decent as not looking like ass, but you wouldn't mistake it for a HD picture. Looks like a lower quality DVD to me.

Hey then, I have a question from that. When streaming netflix just to a computer, should it look better than what you describe? Just on my computer, it seems like it's just below DVD. I have nothing or anyone locally to compare what I see against, but thought it should be better quality than what it is. Even Apple Trailers in 1080i don't really look like DVD quality. That normal?
