Had the same problem last night. You will need to sign out of Netflix and then sign back in. It took me a few attempts for TIVO to connect to sign me out, but I got there in the end. Been working fine all day today.

Hope it helps.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services

I tend to use my Chromecast for Netflix these days - it seems like such a faff going through Tivo (and takes forever). It did me okay for a while, but Chromecast is the way forward now

Thanks took your advice and just kept signing out then back in, and it eventually worked.

I just have a long hdmi lead running from my pc to my tv that works great but thinking of getting either a WD live tv or chromecast.

I just find it so unresponsive on TiVo, takes a good few seconds to acknowledge commands from the remote control. Is that any better on other devices?

I've used Netflix via the following devices Roku 2 XS , Roku 3 and PS4 , the Roku 3 and PS4 are excellent however the Roku 2 XS still has the old Netflix UI and can be a little sluggish and slow to load images.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services

I think I've noticed a slow down since the new ui appeared, particularly starting shows. I now get audio a full second before any picture. The new ui is better to look at but didn't actually add anything in terms of ease of use.

For those unaware new series From Dusk till Dawn is available on Netflix UK, 3 episodes so far being added to each week.

I had the same issue. Did a reboot at the wall and straight in.

I have a WDTV Live and that takes ages too.

Chromecast is as quick as loading the Netflix app on your phone, waiting about five seconds, hitting the cast button and pressing play on your chosen programme (particularly quick if you are piling through a whole season like I am at present with Sons of Anarchy, as the Netflix app, on whatever platform, will line up the next episode for you).

Using Tivo is just too sluggish, and there's no guarantee once you've faffed about that you won't get a connection error.

As I say, it's a great feature on Tivo, but I've outgrown it now.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services

For those who may be interested in WWE Network but were a bit unsure on how it'll cope with live events, i watched Wrestlemania30 on it last night and there were no issues at all, it looks like they have ironed out the problems from it's launch.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services

The number of Netflix subscribers has grown to 14% of the UK’s online population - bolstered by the launch of the service on Virgin Media’s Tivo platform, according to a survey from Decipher Media.

We had it for a couple of months just to see House of Cards, but imo its just a load of old stuff, not worth it unless it can get more up to date quality like House of Cards.
