Depends on what you want to watch. There are Canadian only contents, same like USA only contents... However, in total, Netflix USA has more content...

Premium plan: $12... Conversion rate in myr is more or less the same as current plan pricing in Malaysia. I'm on a grandfathered plan, paying $8 per month for full HD. Though Netflix has announced to end the grandfather plans sometime this year & kick us up to the normal $10 per month.. cry.gif smile.gif

thanks.

so, it is about the same price for same "pack" but local pack is like 1/50th of the us pack in terms of content!

$10 for all of that is affordable. makes rm42 for a much much smaller library look costly.

maybe they are very clear about what people are willing to pay aztro! tongue.gif

Exactly... biggrin.gif. Another reason why I refuse to give up my current netflix plan and sign up under Malaysia.. On a cheaper plan, even if I had to pay the full $10 per month (or RM42) but for farrrrrrr less content. shakehead.gif shakehead.gif

Astro....?? Ain't nobody got time for that.. Still have a fully discounted Hypptv Mega Pack.. Local TV channels taken care of .. smile.gif

Yeah, sticking to the current plan.. I've actually not really taken advantage of iflix, especially since they offered Unifi subscribers free access for a year. It's been awhile and I've still not had enough free time to watch "Black Sails" on iflix. As per the rest... No comment.. brows.gif

I will say, I developed a new found liking for Korean action movies on Netflix.. Also, Kublai Khan & Hundred Eyes... thumbup.gif

i have not looked closely what korean action movies are in there but i did notice a good no. of chinese ones.

i only watched a bit of marco pilot previously but will continue soon. watched hundred eyes that day, not knowing it is a special!

i watch quite a bit of documentaries - the full content is excellent, will keep me going for a while.

If you have to watch only one Korean action movie, I recommend "The Man from Nowhere". Available on US version. Very good! It is like TAKEN on steroids.

Ah, Marco Polo.. IMO.. Is a well researched series and even @1080p on a full HD TV, I was blown away by the gorgeous sets and costumes. At 4K res?? drool.gif

Yeah, Hundred eyes is best enjoyed after watching the complete season 1.

It's unwise to use "special" DNS servers as a permanent configuration directly on your main router.. Primarily cuz, it's a security risk (url hijacks & redirection) and the server could end up being overloaded by unnecessary requests, while its being used for normal browsing..

I was looking for ways for better netflix streaming and somebody mentioned qos

I turned on the qos feature on my router and have it prioritize my firetv stick ip address. The difference is absolutely amazing when using it, less buffer time when starting videos and streams to hd in seconds.

Most importantly is no more sudden drops to blurry sd quality mid scenes and that was already on unifi. Using xiaomi router btw and tvunblock dns.

Same here, haven't really used it since beta days on the PC.. So I just tried it on a Nexus 10 tablet and after about 5 minutes for stream to stabilize, it's watchable but on the 2560 x 1600 pixels screen, it's quite obvious it's not HD. Also, according to the tv series info, Malay & English subtitles are available but on the android app, I got nothing & no options during playback or otherwise to enable them. Subs work on the PC though. A quick run to their website's FAQ section... Under the question "Can I stream iflix in HD?" Their answer; "Patience you must have, Yoda. Our team is working hard to make this happen for you. Stay tuned!". So, this confirms my earlier suspicions that streaming quality is below 720p. Granted, it's still watchable. Finally, tried using the download now, watch offline feature & got error messages instead. Streaming was near instantaneous, so I'll give them that.
