i5 Haswell NUC + Netflix = unwatchable

Hi All,
Not sure if this is where I should post this, but anyway....

I have an i5 Haswell NUC (8GB RAM, 240GB SSD, Win 7 Ultimate).

It's quite happily running Plex decoding uncompressed 1080p streams and pretty much anything else I throw at it. I've just tried watching some Netflix stuff (Power Rangers with the kids) and the tearing/stuttering was awful. I don't have the same problem with any other Netflix device in the house (Roku boxes, Phones, Tablets).

Is there some setting somewhere I should check for? I've already maxed out the GPU RAM in the BIOS.

If it makes a difference, it's going through a Denon AVR-1910 amp to a Samsung UE46B8000 screen.

Help!

Tried going straight to the TV?

Try latest drivers etc

Not tried going straight to TV yet as the cables are all hidden so it'd be a PITA. Also, it works fine on plex with a far higher bitrate.

All drivers are current yes.

It is strange. When doing this sort of thing, I unplug cables and just use a new one to do it. That way you can keep your old cables in the same place :)

Is there some way you can set vsync in Windows? Plex seems to switch the sync rate depending on the media playing back. BluRay rips @ 24fps etc. I'm guessing Netflix might be trying to play at a different framerate to whatever Windows is using?

Shouldn't be the case. I've never encountered tearing with Netflix.

Me rowing my old thread for posterity. Managed to fix the tearing. Turns out I'd changed the theme to hi-contrast. Changing it back to an aero theme has fixed the tearing. I'm getting micro stuttering now, but it's way more watchable. Will post back if I fix that too.

Is it connecting using wireless or a wired connection?

If its wireless maybe its on the edge of signal?

Anyway if its wireless try a wired connection if possible to rule out it being part of the issue.

Edit, sorry really should have read the above first :(
