    New to Vudu services and I feeling rather ripped off with it

    So I bought Divergent and used the code to get my digital copy. I had heard good things about Vudu so I figured I would give it a shot. My system is an i7 w/ 12GB RAM and a HD7770 graphics card. My internet connection is 30Mb and tested at 26Mb using the Vudu speed test.

    I start streaming HDX version of Divergent and it looks okay but buffers every 10 seconds or so. So I figure that I would download a copy and watch it that way. So i start the download (HDX) and go run some errands. Come back and press play to watch my movie... Its AWFUL. The quality is rather ****, and it dropped over 700 frames in the first 10 minutes. I have seen better copies done with an iphone.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    *scratches head*

    Okay that's just WEIRD. I have the same download speeds at home and stream high def all the time without buffering. Granted, I'm just going through DVD player, but still that's odd.

    Do you have any processes running in the background that could be taxing your system? Virus checkers and such?

    I was very hesitant coming over to Vudu myself, but they've done all right by me.

      Similar set-up and no problems here.

      Contact Vudu support. It not be easy but they'll get you through it.

      Depending on set-up Vudu can work better with some configuration of ports. Don't know why when other service don't need it. But it helps.
