Amazon Prime that it .. Been using Netflix for more than half a year now and I would say that it is amazing .. at least it keeps my son busy with all the Barneys, Thomas, Power Ranges, and the likes .. and I can still watch the old TopGear releases .. if you're subscribing Netflix for up-to-date TV shows or movies, than you've chosen the wrong content provider.

yup, everytime you reset your modem, you'll get a new IP address. This IP address need to be updated in unblock-us database. Wonder why you need to restart your modem? My router + modem have been up for many months without a need to restart.

I'm on unifi, it doesn't change the IP address unless I rebooted my modem. Eventhen, it seems unblock-us works just fine .. check on how to use dyndns to trigger IP change, it is available in unblock-us FAQ.

hi

can this appletv play mkv firom external drive .....if can wanna sell my wdtv and get this instead

No external drive is supported, the only way to play movies is via streaming from itunes from your pc/Mac. No idea if itunes supports mkv, probably you need a plugin..

atv3 not shown on itunes. when connecting to pc no need plug in right? just use usb?

Why do you need to get it connected to itunes via USB? Updating the firmware? And yes, you don't need to power it via the plug, the usb should power the atv when it is connected to the PC.

Do remember, netflix doesn't have most of the latest and greatest things you could watch over the Astro channels. So you may missed those series showing in SWR, AXN or DIVA.

Good news to many of us now since we've two streaming content providers now. With Hulu Plus having many latest tv shows and stuff, you may want to rethink of going for basic Astro + sports channels only now smile.gif

Just scared they charged me both on cc and itunes credit..

Did you subscribe directly from netflix website or through itunes? If you subscribe directly from netflix website, you'll get a recurring charge from netflix but if you go through itunes, you'll get billed by itunes.

Anybody using unblock-us here? Out of sudden, I couldn't get into the net using unblock-us DNSes, I'm using unblock-us inside my router. Is UNIFI doing anything funny or unblock-us has problem with it's servers?


Added on November 22, 2012, 3:57 pmOpss, it back online again .. I guess there is something wrong with unblock-us servers, when they were down, I couldn't ping the servers at all.
