Got to say I'm getting a bit fed up with the frequency at which episodes just sip and netflix is unable to play the remainder. It seems to happen constantly, and on numerous different devices. Does anyone else get this?

Netflix on both my Rokus is faultless, but iPlayer through the same devices stops and starts a lot. Sometimes it's unwatchable.

No issues on my iPad, pc, laptop, chromecast or windows phone. That's across both WiFi and 4G, even with the dns settings amended for unblock-us.

Works nicely here on WDTV, I do get issues as described if the network connection plays up, maybe some wifi interference or ISP problems?

All those who recommended Generation War, help me out I am going insane:

The subtitles are switched on for deaf people i.e. in addition to it telling you what people are saying, every 30 seconds it says {door closes] or [explosions in the distance].
I can't work out whether it is a setting on my TV, a setting on Netflix or whether they have put a fked up version of the subtitled film onto Netflix. It is driving me fking potty trying to work out how to turn them off.
Did you all get that on yours i.e. proving that it is a Netflix mistake? I can probably live with it as long as I know.

Incidentally I watched the first two last night and it is brilliant.

I've just gone through Prison Break in record time for the amount of episodes and now my life feels slightly empty.

Me too, watching through a Roku. I think I just rebooted it, and it didn't happen again.

That's just the Descriptive Titles isn't it? I accidentally set that on my Sky box - It's usually in the same menu as the Subtitles and can just be deactivated. (I don't think an option on Netflix but I could be wrong)

It was a bit weird that they popped up on Generation War, but not on anything else I watch on Netflix.

Indeed, and Netflix on the apple tv doesn't have any setting so I couldn't turn it off.
It must just be a mistake and after a whilse you don't mind it too much. Just int eh beginning I was absolutely fixated by it and it was driving me up the wall
