    General Discussion The Criterion Channel Streaming Service (Official Thread)

    Has anyone else had audio/video sync issues lately with Criterion Channel streaming? I had to stop watching The Naked Spur a few weeks ago because there was about a half second delay, which seemed to get worse as the film progressed. Also had issues on The Daytrippers. I sent a message to...

    With 3 months to go in my 2nd year of subscription to the Criterion Channel, I have watched an even 100 films on the channel, including 40 foreign films. Between CC and Watch TCM, I'm in movie heaven!

    Criterion has made a big upgrade to the Criterion Channel website, as they now list all films available. I went through about half of them, and added a few dozen to my list. Streaming was flawless for the last film I watched (David Lean's Great Expectations), so hopefully things will improve...

    I hope the Criterion streaming becomes more reliable. I was watching Fallen Idol recently, and four times in the first 30 minutes the picture disappeared and "UNABLE TO LOAD" appeared on the screen, though the audio kept playing. I had to backtrack and click on the film thumbnail again to pick...
