Woohoo, Netflix update fixes audio syncing

ssahnan · 01-05-2012, 01:50 AM

Got a netflix update tonight, audio syncs correctly for me. It was unwatchable beforehand. Video resolution also seems to settle to its Max level per what the bandwidth allows much quicker now too....now if we could only get that dang spotify app I would be all set...

Yep the new update works great. Now I can watch the Walking Dead.

With you on Spotify!

I could not get it from this app store so I downloaded the apk from 1mobile. It is the latest version but audio sync is still a problem. I will uninstall it and wait until I can download it from this app store.

I love autocorrect!

Seriously, though, I wonder why you can't get Netflix from the Amazon store?

That's where I got it, and that's where I got the notification of the update from. (It fixed my audio-sync problem, too.)

I still cannot update netflix from amazon. Something must be prohibiting it that lies within my KF but I will need to resolve whatever that is first.

My Netflix app was at 1.6.0. I never got an update notice, even after syncing several times. However, the first time I went into the Apps store and selected Netflix I got an Update button which allowed me to update to 1.6.1. I haven't had time to verify if the new update fixed my audio/video sync problems yet.

robertc88 · 01-06-2012, 01:02 PM

Dumped everything out of my download folder (it was pretty full). Still no luck getting it from Amazon and I even uninstall the app from the KF. I'm back to 1.6.0 from 1mobile and I'm not sure where my KF is locked up with downloading Netflix at this point. I'd better try some other app to make sure Netflix isn't the only issue.

Maybe I'll give support a call. Don't know what my chances are of getting through with all that were recently sold and folks now playing with FIRE!

Hmm. The update seems to have fixed some of the hiccups I was having. But, haven't played with it too much the last few days.

ratkity · 01-06-2012, 01:14 PM

The new update didn't fix my audio sync troubles.

I suspect that Netflix competes with Amazon Prime. BTW, I get no audio syncing issues with the videos on Prime. *sigh*

Hugs,

Count me impressed.

I got through to support in under a minute and they told me to deregister the device and then register. All fixed now getting the app from their store for netflix and it seems to be running fine.

Maybe grabbing the Apk from 1mobile hosed me up.

Thats why I don't sideload untrusted apps.

I got my NF update notice in my task bar and downloaded the update.

I never noticed a sync issue so cant compare
