Xbox 360's Netflix Interface is Shit

Why is the alphabet even important?  It's overrated.

When has alphabetization ever helped out?

Stop complaining and watch your movies.

Dude, at least you get access to such a feature.

Next time try to post in the correct forum please (ie. the X360 forum). Back on topic...I can't say that the Netflix interface is ideal on the X360, especially if you have a large queue, but it doesn't really bother me too much.

My Advice? Don't add movies to your list unless you plan to watch them, then remove them when you are finished watching.

Well in that case... Wait a minute! I just got a text from one of my terro.. I mean.. football associates. He said terrorists use bombs not the alphabet, you lied to me.

Can't make bomb without the alphabet.

Sure you can, flour and water. You can make anything with flour and water, even the alphabet.

This is totally off topic.  Hah.  How'd this even start?

Eh, the OP was just as much off topic :P

I feel sorry for him...you sort of ruined his tread with your "alphabets are needed" rant.

lol, well, it's pretty appaling not to have a sort feature like that though. But theres not a lot more to be said on the subject :P

he could just stream netflix from his PC like every normal person

I agree that the interface could be much better, though in general I would say go into you Instant Queue on the website and then push what you're most interested in right now at the top of your list.

My bigger headache is that fact that I can't brows the Netflix catalog and just add stuff from my actual 360. That would be nice.

355 movies just in your instant queue?  First thing I'd suggest is trimming that down.  You can always re-add them again later...or just walk over to you computer and add them as necessary.  

My advice. Don't have so many movies in you queue.

Yeah Trim that # of films down, your not gonna watch them all at once. Secondly order them as you'd want to watch them, that is kinda the point.

I think my instant queue has 374 movies right now and even though the titles aren't alphabetically ordered I don't really find it too difficult to find what I'm looking for. If you press RB then it does a little title warp and throws you like 10-15 movies forward this works inversely with LB. Using that helped me alot once I passed the 150 mark.

It doesn't alphabetize because the purpose of the Cue is to watch a video and then delete it.  Therefore it maintains the order in which you added the movie to the cue (ie.  oldest to newest).  You don't own the movie so why are you going through so much trouble to catalogue something you don't own?  You're also creeping up on the Cue limit which is 500 titles.  Watch and delete dude.  Stop trying to hoard the unhoardable!
