    Problems with Netflix App


    When I play a movie, it plays ok and then after 30-60 seconds, the audio starts making weird noises and the audio is distorted. All my drivers are up to date and the app is up to date as well.

    Specs:

    Asus PG5C-MX/1333
    - Intel LGA775 Pentium CPU
    - Intel® Core™2 Duo Ready
    - Dual-Core CPU Support
    - Intel® 945GC(A2)/ICH7
    - Dual channel DDR2
    - 6-channel High Definition Audio
    2.8 Ghz Dual Core
    4 GB RAM
    Windows 10 Pro 64 bit
    320 GB Samsung HDD

    Did not have this problem with Windows 8.1
    Also happens if I use the the Windows built in video player playing movies from my hard drive and also the VLC Player app.
    I've googled my brains out for a fix and have not found anything. I am really good with computers so this is baffling me.

    Open your browser > google for Netflix > click Sign In > use that instead and see if you still have the same issue.
    If no issue, right click at Netflix > click Create shortcut > click Yes to confirm.
    You now have a Netflix desktop shortcut. Use it from now on.

    Well, yeah, I know that, I prefer the app over the web based site for streaming. When I first upgraded to 10, and updated the app, it worked fine. Last few weeks, I been having problems. I found that it was lagging my computer and there was a process that was hogging my computer. Here I am playing a movie via the app, attached a screenshot of the task manager:

    When I close the ap and go to google chrome browser (or Edge)

    and log back into Netflicks same video > sound is Perfect ..!!
