Hey guys, was just wondering. When watching movies/tv shows on Netflix, does it automatically go in HD or do you have to set the movie to HD settings somehow? I am asking this because when I press the "select" button it says that the video quality is Low/SD.

It might be based on your internet connection, or it might be becuse you have a certain setting selected on the Netflix website and that is dictating the streaming quality.

Hi, My PS3 shows low image quality on a Netflix HD title (Weeds), especially annoying in low light scenes. However, when I connect a VAIO laptop to the same ethernet cable and output to the same receiver/plasma tv through the same HDMI cable, the quality improves a lot. I got Charter 18Mbps/4Mbps service that gives constant speed readings above 7 Mbps on the PS3 test (and 10-16Mbps on any of the 6 computers in the house, wired and wireless). Netflix HD is playing crisp and gorgeous on any of them except PS3. Now I use the PS3 exclusively for Netflix streaming to the plasma tv and I would like to use the laptop for other things too, but image quality is most important for me so for now I keep the laptop on top of the PS3 for netflix streaming purposes only. Can the PS3 reproduce the image quality of a streaming PC (to the same plasma tv)? Many thanks! Gabriel
