Netflix and 4.2

[DaveSt]

Have any Netflix users noticed problems after updating to 4.2? I have been getting freezes that I never saw before today. Before I would occasionally get booted from what I am watching and sent back to the main Netflix browser, but this is different. I will be watching something at what I would consider the best quality I can get from Netflix when suddenly the video freezes completely. Sometimes the timer keeps ticking away like the show is still playing but the picture is completely frozen. If I click the "done" button I am sent back to the Netflix app at which time I can restart. I have been getting this freeze about once every 5-10 minutes of video. Perhaps Netflix is just having a bad day, but I was curious if anyone else has seen this.

Nope. Running just fine. They put out an pday last week I believe. Make sure you are using the current version of the app. If that doesn't work try remove and redownload from the AppStore.

I get the same thing watching Youtube.

Working fine for me. In fact last night after upgrading to 4.2.1 I was watching Netflix on my Roku when the show started stuttering. I decided that was a good time to try the new iOS. I watched several shows on the iPad without a single issue. Very nice as that was one app I was worried about.

I'll just assume Netflix was having issues for now. I ran a quick speed test when I was having the issues and my download speed was 6.4 Mbps so I don't think it is a ISP problem.
