I just think they're neat!
My pet peeve is when a show or movie ends and they immediately try to play a trailer for another show. I actually enjoy reading the credits! Or maybe I'm looking for the mid- or post-credits scenes. Either way, they give me like 10 seconds or less to cancel the next preview.
Ugh I get this with The Boys Amazon. I want to hear the outro damnit
I hate when I pause to read subtitles or something on the screen and it's filled with overlays like "Did you like, love, or not for me this?"
For real, I hate having the conversation about the movie I just watched with someone drowned out with a trailer for some shitty original.
You can turn this off but it can only be done from a computer or on a phone using desktop view..
While logged into Netflix on a browser, you'll need to follow these steps:
Isn't that just for stopping the previews only when hovering over a title from the home screen, for instance? Doesn't that exclude when you open the page for a show/movie, like to read it's synopsis/cast? (the point the OP is making)
To my memory, there is still no option to stop the auto-start.
I tested it in the iPhone app and it doesn't autoplay when clicking on the link. Maybe that's just mobile and not web/TV apps
It has to be to artificially inflate the number of views there shows are getting. Just auto-play every single fucking thing a person hovers over and your shows will never stagnate.
We unsubscribed a while back, but that was one of my biggest gripes with the platform.
From the company that complained too many people were using their serivce
Unsubscribe.
No such issues with Plex/Jellyfin.
Oh man, since setting up my Plex server, I almost never use streaming services anymore. I mostly just keep them because my wife is obsessed with true crime shows and I don't have any of those on my Plex server.
So... Download them.
Or Stremio.
Are you implying something here?
I love when you pause a video and Netflix decides to load the next and start playing anyways. Because of how slow their app is to update the controls I end up just disconnecting and closing the app to stop it.
