Netflix to stream ALL Trek TV

[WillEagle]

Found Voyager and Enterprise   :archer also. Just needed to do a better search.

TOS is the enhanced versions!! TNG is the only other series I found on Netflix. Which is fine I can't watch 5 series at once.

You won't find DS9 until October for whatever reason but at least you found 4 of them!  :)

Yeah, the video ram is kinda weak to push HD to a big screen.

Yeah, that may be the case. I'm going to go the cheap route for now and see what it looks like. Getting Apple TV would be no problem.

get a used 360 from game stop. it's only 99.00 and there is an espn 3 app to stream espn and tons of programming. It relies on your cable provider to access it, but it's nice.

I have netflix, hulu+, and espn 3 though my xbox ... we're getting other stuff and live tv for xbox soon. They say that you'll be able to use it like a DVR.

TNG looks pretty bad to me.  I'm using Apple TV.  Enterprise looks great though.

I assume you mean visually.. as in the streaming.. not the actual show itself.

Remember, TNG has not been remastered for HD (though rumored) so if your trying to push to HD, it is not going to look good, especially season 1.  Plus, the series is old.  (Though awesome!) :)

Ok, it looks like certain devices are having trouble streaming both Voyager and Enterprise.  Devices like iPhones, iPads, PS3's, etc.  I can stream Enterprise fine on my PC right now.  I need to try my TIVO soon too.  I'm guessing they are still working out the "bugs."  Found this thread about some of the issues.

As far as picture quality, you need to keep in mind a few things.  Streaming is compressed video and audio.  In many cases depending on your setup, bandwidth, TV, etc. it might not look even as good as a DVD.  Picture quality will vary quite a bit.  I think you may find this especially to be true with TNG and also DS9.  In a way, you might actually be better watching these on a smaller device like a, iPad, laptop, or PC with a smaller screen than a big, HDTV.  Just some suggestions.

Thanks for posting that Rico. At least now I don't feel like I'm doing something wrong. With NetFlix anyway! :)

[WillEagle]

I watched TOS "The Doomsday Machine" on the netflix on my hdtv and it looked awesome!! I was running it through my PS3. I haven't tried the other series yet.

[Jobydrone]

I'm REALLY looking forward to giving Voyager another try.  I never really liked that series (easily my least favortie crew) when it aired and only watched sporadically so there's many episdoes I've never seen.  I was getting errors when I tried to load the episodes but they seemed to have fixed it now.  Netflix is so great!

[Feathers]

Bah humbug ;)

No doubt we'll get this sort of facility in five years time.

Looks like Canada and a few other places will be getting some Trek streaming soon too.

Heh....the wife is about to go mental from all the Trek I've been watching via Netflix.  I never really caught DS9 when it was on so I'm really looking forward to it becoming available to stream.  A good time of the year for it too as snowy days were made for holding down the sofa and watching TV.
