Netflix PS3 Question

So, I installed it on my PS3, and I am only getting PCM 2 channel on streaming movies.

I can't seem to find any settings to change this, can someone help?

The video which is supposedly HD looks like compressed cable 1080i during low bandwith window, but it's OK.

You have to go to settings and change that manually.

Thanks for posting this - I've been meaning to swap from Blu-Rays to streams, too. Any more info is welcome.

Yes, HOW do I get into this settings?

Pressing the normal settings button on PS3 while in Netflix doesn't do it.

Exit Netflix. Go to the PS3 menu by pressing the middle button. Go to settings, and configure your screen resolution in conjunction with your TV and it's abilities. Go back to Netflix and all should be well. You may need to power down or restart after changing the settings. Good luck everyone!!

I can watch Blu-ray with uncompressed DTS-HD already...

OK, so I already have BD/DVD audio set to HDMI Linear PCM already, which is what you need for proper DTS-HD/TrueHD/DTS-MA decoding.

How to Improve Netflix Picture Quality | eHow.com

From what I can tell, from reading a lot about this, your PS3 combined with NetFlix will automatically adjust the settings to get the best picture. The main thing that affects picture quality is your internet connection. If you don't have a hard line hooked up to it, do that and then see if there is a difference. Or get better internet... That is all I can offer. Good luck guys!
