Netflix lag issue

ThomasBoben

I know this may seem weird to post on the forums but its actually really frustrating issue. My computer for some reason lags on netflix or on longer youtube videos. With everything else closed and not doing anything it still lags which is strang because my computer isnt a bad pc at all so it hard to troubleshoot.

cpu-intel 5930k

gpu- asus strix 1080

internet- down 101 up 120

Just a question are you using in browser or the windows app? I have a similar prob with xfinity on a good rig yet on my phone it works fine and im sure if they made an app it would too. As do i have visual issues with the WWE network in browser no mater what browser i have tried but the app works great.

this is actually very very weird. I was having the issue on browser but tried the app and it works perfectly fine on my pc. Any idea what would cause this?

Honestly the conspiracy theorist in me just thinks they want you to use the app to bolster statistic numbers or it could easily be fixed. Also only other thing is alot of in browser streaming still like to use flash vs html5 i dont know why or how but that could be causing issues in newer browsers with legacy. Maybe if we found an old legacy browser that was supported in its state we could test.
