QUOTE(aceedburn @ Jun 28 2012, 10:17 AM) Hi buddy. The previous KVPUG forum was so darn addictive in those days, huh? Have we met at any of our meets previously? Anyway, I use tunlr VPN. It's free and Netflix works beautifully. Netflix gives you a 1 month free trial and after that it's only usd7.99 per month which is very affordable IMO. thanks for sharing that VPN, i might use that for netflix

Added on June 28, 2012, 2:05 pmBTW, anybody on Maxis Fiber? Any problem accessing netflix using vpn or unblock-us? This post has been edited by wiraone: Jun 28 2012, 02:05 PM

Any problem accessing netflix using vpn or unblock-us? Would like to ask. How good is Netflix comparing icefilms n the rest? Still haven't experience Netflix due to VPN n subscription... If good then only subscribe..

No idea if itunes supports mkv, probably you need a plugin..

QUOTE(creep @ Jun 29 2012, 01:14 AM) hi can this appletv play mkv firom external drive .....if can wanna sell my wdtv and get this instead i would keep the wdtv and proceed with the atv. since both are for different functions. i've an atv / ps3 for netflix / prime & tvix for downloaded media. if you're an osx user mountain lion might negate the need for a media player, though. (depending how well air play works) This post has been edited by olivur: Jun 29 2012, 08:06 AM
