There is no buffering but the quality is not HD.I think probably DVD quality.Im in petaling jaya.I search on google and they say that usually netflix HD need at least 8mbps


Added on July 8, 2012, 12:53 amYup,its confirm.I check the movie on my PS3 and all I got is "Medium/High SD" video

Its not stable.Sometimes got medium HD sometimes got High SD.I guess the highest I got is only medium HD on my ps3 but on appleTV,the picture still in SD.PS3 can check the video quality by pressing select but appleTV cant but still can see the quality is only SD

I already double check.Using 4mbps streamyx,same tv(Only 720p,not fullHD) ,same range of wireless,i make a difference between netflix ps3 and appleTV.While using my ps3,I manage to get Medium HD starting from Medium SD,and go to High SD and last until Medium HD.Then I pause the movie see it clearly and off ps3 and turn on appleTV.Sadly,my appleTV only manage to get probably low SD until Medium SD and probably High SD but never even Medium HD.Really sad sad.gif

i'm not undermining your eyes in any, but i'd like to add that the fact that apple tv doesn't have an option to show what quality you're currently streaming in adds to placebo effect to it as well tongue.gif
i'd only notice resolution drop when i'm downloading, which is a given.

Actually I make a compare between 10 minutes of the movie with watching transformers dark moon.I keep observe the difference between SD and HD on PS3 while pressing select and recheck it using appleTV again.Thats why I say it only got probably low SD-high SD but not Medium HD like the ps3 and I keep doing this 2-3 times by switching it back and forth

Did the test but still not able to get the HD quality. Using the free Tunlr as vpn provider, not sure if it makes any difference.

Should be US post code (zip code). Just put any valid number, they are not using it to validate any of your CC info.

If you use google,most people wont get HD when using appletv because of the internet connection.I myself use 4mbps streamyx still cant get HD using appleTV but when use PS3 can get at least medium HD and the difference between ps3 and appleTV is really much.You really must change your internet connection

Added on August 4, 2012, 6:11 pmGot 1 more question here..how will netflix charge me? Is it through my maybank CC or my US itunes account?
So confused ..i got email from apple saying they im subscribed through itunes but when i checked at netflix website it just stated my CC as payment option..no itunes there..
*
It will automatically deduct on your CC
