Netflix had an outage this afternoon. I thought it might be something on my end, but I checked on of the "outage reporting sites" and sure enough-- Netflix was down. 

It seems to be back, but wow. I somehow never thought of Netflix as potentially unstable.

Huh, I went to watch something this afternoon and got a message something like “this episode is not available at this time.”  I just backed out a couple levels and tried again, and all was fine. I just chalked it up to my Wi-Fi. So if I hit the Netflix outage, I must have caught the tail end of it. 

[possibilities]

When I checked, it had been out for about half an hour already. So I went and did something else and when I came back hours alter, it was back. So I'm not sure how long it was out, but it was definitely out for a while.

The error I got was that the website was unavailable. If you got in enough to see a specific episode not available, that must have been while it was coming back?

[SunnyBeBe]

I got the same message of unavailable content.  I went into applications and deleted some cashe.  That’s my go to solution.  Lol.  It worked.  Maybe, just a coincidence.

I finally got around to checking Hulu. It was logged in on my pc but not on the Roku TV. I changed my password to one that was easier to do with the TV remote, stayed logged in on the pc and entered the password in the TV and everything is fine. So stupid, though, since I have the Hulu Disney+ bundle and had no problem with Disney.

ETA: Netflix gave me an error message yesterday and said to try again in 24 seconds. I didn't wait, just clicked try again and got in.

A possible clue to streaming glitches?
I've had a similarly odd thing happening in the last few weeks with my Roku access to BUZZR (old game shows keep me company and occasionally amuse while I do stuff, but without distracting me).
I would go to the Roku Channel app, then select the BUZZR "Live" icon.
The show would pop up for half a second and then the app would shut down.
But I could go to the app for my antenna feed and get BUZZR there.
Eventually I noticed that this was happening when the online scheduling grids for BUZZR at that time varied as to which show was on: like Match Game or Password.
Once I caught a glimpse of the show before it shut down on the Roku stream, and it was different than the one I was able to stream from my antenna. 
A clue to streaming glitches in general, perhaps?
Maybe the feed is supposed to be different geographically, or, if it's Hulu or Netflix, by package, and then when the wrong feed gets fed, it shuts you down (or out)?

I’m loving Hulu so far. I think it’s because I’m more into old sitcoms and whatnot than a lot of the dramas on Netflix. I admire how visually beautiful shows like Bridgerton and The Crown are. The stories are just harder for me to get into. 

[SunnyBeBe]

I used to get little use from Netflix, but I’ve gotten addicted to this foreign detective series like Bordertown.  It’s set in Finland and is dubbed with English.  So monotoned…lol.  There seems to be an endless supply of these things…some are from South America, France, etc.   

[AstridM]

I’m appalled at the cost of no-ad Netflix at this point. I won’t be paying for it for more than a couple months a year. Fuck them.

You don't have to watch the show dubbed into English.  For some reason, Netflix has started to default to the dubbed version of their foreign shows if it exists but you can always change the audio settings back to the original language and add captioning/subtitles in English. I watched Bordertown in the original language with English subtitles.

I’m embarrassed to say that I’m probably too lazy or unfocused to watch them with subtitles. Lol. A lot of the time, I’m online or doing household work and not looking at the screen.  I’m not opposed to do that for a good movie though.

Same. My attention span isn't the greatest. I have a hard time just sitting still and not doing anything but watching something. If I'm invited to a really long movie, I normally pass. lol I think that's why I prefer reality and sitcoms to dramas.

Oh I get that. I've certainly suffered through dubbing before in order to multitask.  But since you complained about the dubbing, I wanted to mention that the original language and subtitles usually are an option.  You'd be surprised how many people don't know they have that option.

As a language, we're a bit behind in the dubbing game as we never really had many foreign-produced shows come to our TVs before streaming.  If they did, they'd be subtitled.  Since most other countries used to get a lot of American-made/English-language programming, they're years ahead in the dubbing/voice over acting game.

Yes, I found out about their default to dubbed when I watched the Thai Cave Rescue documentary series and couldn't make it through more than 20 minutes of the first episode listening to the terrible voice acting.  I switched to the original Thai with English subtitles enabled and it was an exponentially better experience.

This is so very interesting. In the past four of five years, more and more Bollywood movies have become available to watch on Netflix. I've only seen two, which weren't edited. But there wasn't any dubbing as I've read about here. And I always turn off the closed captioning/subtitles, because it's distracting for me.

Regarding the editing-I don't understand why the distributors or whoever is in charge of making the movies to DVD and streaming, edit out songs, or scenes! I know they do because some of the movies I've seen so many times and I have the nearly photographic memory!

The VHS versions would have the theatrical release version; sometimes they would also edit out scenes, because back in those days, you only had so much tape, they said. Whatever.

I've never been able to get in touch with the powers that be that made this stupidass decision.

That's why once I notice one scene was cut while watching on Netflix or Prime, I stop and just pop in my DVD. I'm speaking about what I consider Classic movies--from the 50s-early 90s, and a sprinkle from early 2000s. Everything after 2005 is just CRAP.

Would it have anything to do with licensing or residuals?  Maybe they don't want to pay the artist or the actors, even though we're paying the service to provide the full content.

Remember when TV stations would run theatrical films "edited for content" or "edited for time?"  They cut out sex and violence, and it was almost impossible to see a full version of any movie when it was squeezed into a two-hour time slot with commercials.  But there's no excuse for a streaming service that has no time or MPAA rating conflicts.

Do you speak the language?  Otherwise it would seem you would need one or the other.

I'm just the opposite, anyway.  Except for live-action or shows like Jeopardy! where the CC spoils the game, I use CC for everything.  Even though I almost always watch with half an eye.

The OG Roswell show DVDs had all but a couple of the songs replaced because they hadn't paid for licensing. I got hooked on the show for the music, so I couldn't stand to watch the DVDs when a daughter bought them for me one birthday. Fortunately she lives far away and never remembers what she buys for me. 💗

I use CC for everything except if I watch Jeopardy on a screen too small to not see the CC (like YouTube on my laptop if I miss it on the big TV).

I started using CC because my neighbor had a new baby and I didn't want to wake it up, and then used it for British shows, and now need it because of roaring tinnitus. 
You can get used to reading CC and catch a lot of stuff most folks miss, even if they have perfect hearing.

At least, most people can get used to CC. 
Every time I visited my parents after my sister visited, I had to turn on the CC again even though Dad was deaf by then, and her husband had hearing loss. Eventually her husband got devices to stream the sound to his hearing aids.

So: I have no problem reading translated dialog.
But, yeah, it is not possible to multi-task if you're solely relying on captioning for dialog.

I don't think so. Like I said, on the VHS versions, most movies were the theatrical release. For example, Shaan (1980). The VHS had the complete song which had three refrains. The first one you had Shashi Kapoor's character on an elephant, and then Amitabh Bachchan's character hanging upside down from the top of the two decker bus--. But it also didn't include one of the songs from the soundtrack, or how Sunil Dutt, who played the older brother to Shashi and Amitabh, catch them at their con games and hauled them off to jail.

On the DVD? They cut out of the first refrain from the song, cut off the couples finding each other at the end when the island they're trying to escape from, is going BOOM and falling all around them-with Parveen Babi's character (love interest to Amitabh) asking what happened to him (he had been thrown underground and had to wrestle and kill the most ridiculous fake looking crocodile) because his shirt was all shredded and bloody.

This is one of my favorite movies, and despite the director's attempt to copy a James Bond movie (the villain was a bald-headed megalomaniac, I think he was supposed to be like Telly Savalas' villain? I dunno), I just love the action and comedy.

So, my anal retentive ass counted, COUNTED, all the scenes cut out on the DVD (6, including the first half of the song), but it kept the original 10 scenes that were from the theatrical release, but cut out on the VHS version!

There's no rhyme or reason. Eros put out this movie and others, and they produce the full film for most movies, but then there are a handful, like Shaan, where they butcher it.

And to add/rub salt in the wound, when India's local channels would air this movie or any of the Amitabh's (that I watched when I visited my parents in India almost 10 years ago), DAMNED if they didn't air the FULL version of the movies.

I've never read or heard about licensing issues over music in India when it comes to the movies.

Oh yes, I do speak the language, so I guess that makes a difference! But VHS and even DVDs are HORRIBLE at the subtitles. I bang my head on desk or slap my forehead when I watched them years ago-so, so, so WRONG. Even Dostana, the DVD automatically has English subtitles that I cannot get rid of and the translation is HORRID.

Heh.  Why would they be any better in translation than they are in English-to-English closed captioning?  I can understand why live action captioning such as sporting events has faults, as they are trying to keep up in real time, but I absolutely don't get how they butcher the CC in so many videos when they have time to get it right.

I almost never give TV my undivided attention, so I'm one of those people who glances up when I need to see what I just heard.  I dearly wish Netflix and other streamers would make it clear in the program description if it's originally in another language, as I don't like dubbing and I won't read subtitles continuously. 

That just made me flash back to my childhood.  Anybody remember Children's Film Festival, introduced by Kukla, Fran and Ollie?  Wonderful foreign films that no one in this country would otherwise have seen.

Thing is, the subtitles are getting better now and days. Now YouTube has all those movies and most even have closed captioning available and they do a decent job; as do the subtitles on my bluray. But back in the days for Beta, VHS and early DVDs? HORRID.

It's not as bad as closed captioning for the US shows and movies, where they take shortcuts and don't provide the actual words that were said, but something similar.

I mean, for example, in Dostana, when Vijay and Sheetal meet and he tells her how he feels about her, it was "I was interested in you and I wanted you. And I think you're interested in me and want me too." Subtitles? "I love you and I know you know I love you and I think you love me too."

UGH.

ETA: what drove me even more batty was before they got together he referred to himself as ordinary police officer and the subtitles had him saying he was a “petty” man.🤬🤬🤬

So I've gotten kinda obsessed with Ewan Mitchell since seeing him in House of the Dragon (read: yeah, obsessed) and have been trying to watch other things he's done.  When I realized he was in a show exclusive to Peacock (Trigger Point), I decided to check it out.  I just have the free version of Peacock and of course only the first episode was free.  So now I have to pay for the Premium level, at least for a short while.  Fortunately it's not expensive, but still, damn it.

Ah, yes.  Peacock got me a couple of times, when they were fairly new.  I started watching a show that sounded good/had good reviews, then realized only the first one or two or three episodes were on the free tier.  I've been telling myself that once I catch up with everything else I want to watch, I'll get a month or two of Peacock and watch some stuff.  (Hasn't happened yet, though.)

Fortunately there are only 6 episodes in season 1 and it doesn't look like Mitchell's in season 2, so it won't take long to watch.  I'll throw in a few Peacock-only Arsenal matches and it'll be worth a month of paying.

[Anela]

If HBO is going to keep getting rid of shows I thought they'd have forever (or as long as the service lasted), I'm going to unsubscribe. I was excited to finally have it, over a year ago, and now they're just ruining it. 

My free trial of showtime ends in about a week, and I'm not sorry about it. There's hardly anything on there that I want to watch. 

[SoMuchTV]

Okay, my cable co has raised rates yet again and we're seriously looking at the live streaming tv alternatives.  Hulu & Youtube seem to be the top contenders, but they each are missing like one channel that either my H or I really want.  (If he didn't have the History Channel in his must-have list, I would have picked one in a hot minute.)  So, we're now in a 14-day free trial for Youtube. Any tips or tricks from anyone who has gone this route?  Right now the live options are a huge list of non-alphabetized channels.  You can't just punch in a channel number like on cable, you have to scroll through.  It looks like you can set up some profiles and preferences but you have to do that from your Google account on a non-tv device.  I'm thinking if we go this route, we want to set up a new Google account that both of us can access, and set up profiles there.  Any advice?

Frndly.tv has History Channel. The cheapest tier is 6.99, if there's ever anything must see on it you could sub for a month or two and then cancel.

I rarely watch anything live so I always go straight to the YTTV library but I do think it helps to tag channels as favorites so they appear at the top of the guide.

YT Tip 1: You can customize the order of the YT channels in the settings.  For instance, I moved all the local "main" broadcast channels (NBC, CBS, FOX...etc.) to the top of the lineup.  Then I took all the cable channels that I actually watch with regularity (channels I watch aren't for kids, have 24 hour sports or have 24 hour news) and moved them to the second tier in alphabetical order.  The rest just sit at the back of the pack unless I actually look for something on them.

YT Tip2:  YouTube will start to know you.  It tends to know what I want to watch when I go ton the app.  New Hallmark movie on?  It tells me it's on.  Certain teams playing football?  I know it.  L&O on?  It lets me know.  Is it bedtime?  The app suggests I might want to watch something from the Smithsonian channel like "massive ships" or "Alaskan airports." (I'm fast asleep within 30 seconds once those get put on.)

YT Tip3:  The DVR is unlimited so just add whatever you want to watch or might want to watch. The only negative is that it will get deleted in 9 months--assuming it hasn't re-recorded because of a reairing.

YT Tip 4: You can attach multiple accounts to the same subscription as long as you live in the same viewing area. So you and your hubby could have separate accounts/ profiles with different recommendations. 

As for channels that streamers don't have.  I had that thought about YouTube TV because Lifetime isn't on it.  But then, Lifetime live streams on some free apps--like Roku, I think? You might find that of channels you watch.

I actually believe that we, the viewing public, need to search for activities that don't involve a big black screen in the middle of our homes, or worse, ruining our posture and eyesight by viewing on a portable device.  These bait and switch tactics coupled with rapidly escalating costs of viewing entertainment, have left me with an incredibly bad taste in my mouth over the lot of it.

My one-year free Paramount that T-mobile provided just expired, and I did not renew it.

As far as original items leaving the catalogs, this isn't new, is it?  There are a number of shows that debuted on premium channels, but are nowhere to be found these days, like HBO's Dream On, and Showtime's The Big C.

That's true about shows leaving channels and services, usually they aren't newer ones that get pulled so quickly having been somewhat popular. I read that it got pulled so WB Discovery wouldn't have to pay the cast residuals so it came across to me like it was more of a cost cutting measure.

Edited December 20, 2022 by Jaded

[possibilities]

I just subscribed to HBO Max specifically so I could watch some of their old shows that don't stream anywhere else. If they start disappearing, they will definitely lose my business.

My DirecTV service now puts ads on the pause screen, and as far as I can tell, there's no way to stop that. It's irritating. 

It's not like these companies aren't making money. They don't need to irritate us to death to survive.

Here's a list of what's coming to Paramount + next month. I'll post lists for a couple other of the streaming sites later.

Thanks, @Jaded! 
Suggestion: Instead of the spoiler tag, you can use the quote box because it only displays the first few lines of text unless the reader taps the down arrow on the quote box.

Paramount+ also allows streaming of current CBS shows (like Ghosts and So Help Me Todd) starting the next day, 12 AM PT / 3 AM ET. 

However, if CBS is your station for Jeopardy!, it will not be available for next day streaming on Paramount+ but you can view it Live on Paramount+. 

YouTube will have at least the current episode of Jeopardy! available, but they can disappear within a day or 2, and sometimes bits are missing.

@shapeshifter my use of the spoiler tag by default is a really old default habit from the days of posting on forums where collapsed quotes weren't a thing.

Seeming update on coming Netflix crackdown on password sharing:

Not sure what this really means 🤷🏻‍♀️
And I’m not going to worry about it.🙃

I know I didn't add this a few days ago when I said I would.

 HBO Max: What's coming and going in Jan (The same list was posted everywhere I checked online to see if the John Wick movies were under coming and going. There's a coming list on HBO Max's site and they are listed on it)...🤷‍♀️

Let me preface this by saying that I have most of the movies on DVD, which include movies from the 50s-80s. But sometimes I feel too lazy and want to see if Netflix might have them and the full versions.

Of course I’m talking mainly of Amitabh Bachchan movies. But Netflix, instead of having the Bollywood  category might as well just rename it to Shah Rukh Khan movies, since 99% are just his bloody movies.😒😒😒😒

I’m not a fan. He’s okay, but what do I know? His acting, is mediocre and the few I’ve watched were rip-offs from older AB movies. And it’s the other, better actors who make him look good. But people like who they like.

BAH!

[proserpina65]

Anybody here have Peacock Premium?  I've got a problem I can't figure out and was hoping someone would know what the deal is.  I watched the first 4 episodes of one of their original shows (Trigger Point), feel asleep during the 5th episode and woke up during the 6th.  I didn't go back to try and finish watching the series for a few weeks due to the holidays, and now I find I can only access the 6th episode. Does anyone know what the problem might be?

I'm using Roku, so it might be a little different, nevertheless:

1. Assuming there's a Search icon (magnifying glass icon) somewhere on your screen, navigate to it and start typing in Trigge... until you see the tile for that show appear (on the right on my screen).
2. Select the show.
3. It will default to something like "resume" or "continue" watching, but there should also be an adjacent "Episodes" option.
   That's what you're looking for!

It only lists episode 6 under the "episodes" option, but I just clicked on my saved shows.  I'll try going back and searching to see if it will come up differently.  I may have to see if there's some kind of help/customer service listed for Peacock.  Just as well that I'm getting rid of Premium as soon as I'm done watching the show.

I get Peacock through Roku, which might make a difference I guess.  Didn't have a chance to try anything last night.  Might try tonight but I've started season 4 of The Last Kingdom so maybe not.

Ooo! One more thing!  
Sometimes episodes are listed out of order on a device or Roku app.  
Did you try scrolling/arrowing up as well as down?

The list literally only included one episode.  I haven't tried searching the other way yet.  That might make a difference.

Anybody here have Peacock Premium?  I've got a problem I can't figure out and was hoping someone would know what the deal is.  I watched the first 4 episodes of one of their original shows (Trigger Point), feel asleep during the 5th episode and woke up during the 6th.  I didn't go back to try and finish watching the series for a few weeks due to the holidays, and now I find I can only access the 6th episode. Does anyone know what the problem might be?

This is a shot in the dark but is there any chance you got accidentally signed out of your paid version?  What you're describing sounds like what we "peons" get on the free version.
