Anyone else having problems with Netflix?

[Bird222]

For the last day I have been trying to watch Narcos and I keep getting this error message "We're having trouble playing this title right now. Please try again later or select a different title."

 

[shortylickens]

No.

Everything else in my life sucks. Netflix is the one constant. Please dont ruin it for me.

The only time I've seen that message it only lasted a short time and then later on I was able to connect and watch my show.

Last time I got any serious shit from Netflix it turned out to be a dying router.

I watch on a roku 3 most of the time. I get messages like that on a regular basis. Usually the video starts on the next try.

Once in a while, it's really broken for a bit. A couple times its helped to reinstalled the app.

Yes, I have a problem with Netflix. I've considered signing up but Netflix won't let me see what's in their catalog unless I sign up first. Screw that.

Just check InstantWatcher. Plus they have a free month - give it a shot.

Don't get it for high profile movies though - they've more or less gone away from that model. They'll have name-brand older movies (Lethal Weapon, Jaws, etc.) from time to time. We mostly watch the Netflix produced series (Narcos, Last Chance U, Making a Murderer, Stranger Things, etc.) as well as older TV shows (Breaking Bad, Walking Dead, Person of Interest, etc.)

Don't bother. Their movie catalogue is crap. I scroll through pages of horrible movies nobody would ever watch in a million years looking for the one I want but can never find it. Then, when I try to watch old TV shows it lags out half the time. The only show I watched successfully was that 'Making a Murderer' series.

I cancelled Netflix a few months ago. Good riddance.

yeah, i'm about to say good riddens to Netflix too.

If you're a movie fan then Netflix is for you. There's always a good classic movie to watch. Recent movies: not so much.

Nope, watched season 2 of Narcos over the past weekend without any issues. That's probably one of my favorite shows ever.

Maybe it's because they don't have enough employees?

It was me apparently. After I rebooted my FireTV everything was fine.

good. I appreciate the tireless efforts to educate the least fortunate. It is better for them and for the rest of us.

Netflix has been working fine for me. I've been binge watching Narcos and Chef's Table like crazy with no issues.

Now is it just me, or does it seem like a lot of the new Netflix shows now require you to read subtitles? Narcos, Chef's Table, and even Fearless (the new bullriding documentary series) all have lots of subtitles to read.

I'm starting to think that it's part of a secret agenda to get Netflix viewers to watch more foreign films that cost less to purchase than the US blockbusters.
