Comment Dual Monitor Support and Slow Video (Score 1) 575

I have my Home Theatre PC hooked up to a regular lcd monitor and a 42" Plasma. My account was automatically upgraded to this silverlight crap. I used to be able to play movies full screen on the Plasma and work on the regular lcd monitor. Guess what? SilverLight will take the video from full screen back to regular once you click off the screen. The old player worked great, so I called Netflix. They told me I am sorry it's by design and no you can't go back. I cancelled my account then created a new one nope still Silverlight. I am no longer a Netflix customer thanks to their crappy player. After all I never really watched the DVDs just the instant. Not to mention the quality is horrible and video seems to run pretty slow almost like the computer can't keep up. The pc is a AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+, 4 GB memory, NVIDIA GeForce 8600GT. It plays Bluray 1080P just beautifully so you can't say the pc is causing the video slowness. Netflix blamed it on the PC. Not to mention I have another near identical one in the bedroom that does the same thing further eliminating software issues.
