'11-11"-TBD Netflix+Hulu Lag?

good morning,

picked 2011 mba 11"/apple thunderbolt display , far i'm in love setup (will write review @ point).

1 issue have noticed, however: last night watching workaholics(not bad show, surprisingly) on netflix , morning watching modern family (incredible show) on hulu, both full screen, , there noticeable lag. seems more prevalent netflix.

wasn't normal bandwidth lag, hang or stop buffer, video game lag. became choppy couldn't keep up. odd thing is, when watch hd downloa....purchased movies, plays smooth silk. other streaming sources teamcoco seem work fine.

i'm curious see if else has had these issues. i'm using mba in clamshell mode , haven't checked on temps or anything, i'm not sure if it's heat issue. i'll have further testing weekend. i'm enjoying setup whole, if chronic problem, might throw monkey wrench has otherwise been perfect setup me far.

insight appreciated.

 

try using xbmc hulu , plex netflix (xbmcflix hasn't been updated eden yet). play h.264 streams instead of flash/silverlight garbage.
