Netflix on Wii

So I finally setup my Netflix account on the Wii.  I have been using it for about a year on PC and my 360.  Putting Netflix on the 360 is what prompted me to start my free trial in the first place.  The lure of being able to watch old movies and some TV shows what just more than I could resist.  I'll admit I don't use my DVD option nearly as often.  My Wii was disconnected for about the past 6 months.  Today I finally managed to hook it up to the wifi, update it and then setup my Netflix.

So far I like the interface.  It seems a bit less complicated than the 360 interface.  I like the way it pages through the queue instead of just moving through it one item at a time.  I have a pretty large instant queue and scrolling through it on the 360 always takes so long.  I am always readjusting it so that whatever I want to watch is 1st so it doesn't take so long to find something good to watch.  I have noticed the change in video quality.  Apparently the Wii is only in standard def and the 360 is in HD.  Even though I do not have an HD tv I can notice the difference in video quality.  It's not bad on the Wii at all just a bit different.  One thing that has suprised me is the lack of buffering.  I have noticed on several occassions on the 360 that I will get a 'internet connection has slowed' message and then it has to rebuffer whatever I'm watching.  I have always found that very frustrating since my 360 is wired to my router at the moment.  So far on the Wii no buffering.  I am on a wireless connection and I'm in the basement so I would think this would be the connection that would be not so hot.  Maybe the standard def is the reason.

Semi related question...  Has anyone had any problem with their instant queue not updating correctly on the 360/Wii?  I deleted a bunch of shows and add a few new ones online.  After that every so often when I view the instant queue on the 360/Wii it displays the queue from before I made my changes yesterday.  I have to completely close out of Netflix and start it again and then the queue is displayed correctly. 

Quite frustrating...

The buffering issue is definitely HD vs SD. HD shows are FAR larger than SD.

Happiness is not about life-business balance, it's about Life-Business Synergy.Successful people win because they love what they do. It's an ugg classic cardy tall article by Tom Reese in yesterday's Pacific Northwest Magazine about the Lake Washington wetlands near Seattle's Arboretum. I actually found myself ugg boots classic cardy gray strangely upset by the article. Not only because he's describing a place I've loved for ugg boots years, but because he so carefully describes the official ugg boots contingency of the natural environment there.Reese takes the bailey ugg boots uk pied-billed grebe as his touchstone, which is a good choice. If you know where to look, you can find the grebe's nest classic argyle uggs resting on the lily pads. It's exposed. It trusts to camoflauge to avoid disturbance. And the argyle ugg boots uk grebes there always make me worry because they're so small and tentative, with ugg boots shop so little to defend themselves. They're the perfect metaphor for our mini ugg boots stewardship of the natural refuges in our cities.Plus, the seventeen photos that mini ugg boots on sale accompany the article online are also astonishingly good. Much better than ordinary uggs ultra boots on sale newspaper shots. But you should go see for yourself.In this article, the good Vietnamese monk tells the story of counseling a young Buddhist woman who had fallen in love with a Catholic man, and was distraught because his family was insisting that she become a Catholic in ultra tall uggs order to marry him. After speaking with her, Thich Nhat Hanh basically gave his ugg classic tall purple blessing for her to enter the church, suggesting that if she continued ugg tall red to do mindfulness work, she could be a Buddhist on the ugg boots cheap inside, even while practicing Catholicism. She thought it over, and her reply is worth considering, as she short black uggs weighs the merits of the two faiths: “[Buddhism is] a tradition that is so embracing, so discount ugg boots classic short tolerant, so open, if I abandon it and turn my back to it, I am not a person of value. [By contrast, Catholicism is] a tradition sundance uggs on sale that is so strict, that has no tolerance, that is not able to understand, how could I formally identify myself sundance uggs sand with it?” http://www.uggcardyuk.co.uk/UGG-Bailey-Button-Boots-5803.html XYZ
