Netflix receives hardly noticeable update on Xbox 360

4.6
The Netflix app for Xbox 360 received an update today that improves some functionality, while completely ignoring most things we would notice. Adjustments include the ability to skip forward and back during play through movies and TV episodes, and a zoom function for those with 4:3 screens to convert letterbox to full screen.

Other tweaks include social media integration for Facebook outside of the States. There's also a single sign-on with cloud profiles, allowing members to access Netflix on another Xbox 360 (like, at a friend's house) with sign-in credentials.

Still not fixed: TV episode selection instead of auto-starting shows and lack of Xbox keyboard interface instead of that sloppy search string of letters. Not that we're bitter or anything.

I hardly noticed anything improved. Netflix has became a little more laggy because of the update actually, not sure why. It would of been great if they added Party chat back to Netflix again though.
