Alright, I'm at my wits end and I have no idea what to do anymore. I've spoken to Microsoft and Netflix numerous times and neither seem to know anything at all about my problem. I'm hoping someone has an idea.
Every time I try to watch something on Netflix, it crashes. Usually when streaming, your video streams ahead of the part you are watching in order to prevent any rebuffering. Well, Netflix will load up to a few minutes and no further. Once I watch up to that point, it tries to rebuffer but gets stuck at 0%. No error message ever pops up. It just stays at 0% and will stay there for hours. This happens on my Sony Blu-ray player and also on my laptop. It acts as if my internet has stopped working and it cannot rebuffer or reload the video, even when my internet connection is perfectly fine. It doesn't matter what internet browser I use, as it does the same thing on all of them. The quick fix to this is if I just refresh the page...the video will start to play where it crashed just fine. But this only works for another couple of minutes before it crashes again. It's becoming pointless to even attempt to watch anything, as I have to get up and refresh it every two minutes.
I'm certain this is an issue with Silverlight crashing, because the tech support on Netflix told me that my streaming data reported a Silverlight error. Not only that, but I can stream just fine on other sites, such as HULU.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Silverlight multiple times, and have deleted the Appdata folder each time. If anyone has any idea on what keeps causing my Silverlight to crash while watching Netflix, any input is appreciated.
I have Windows 7 64-bit and my Silverlight is up to date. All of my web browsers are also up to date.
