![]() ![]() Regardless of how you feel about it, you better get used to it, because it's here to stay! Press play on the Twitter announcement to see the logo in its full effect, and see what people had to say about it ahead. ![]() Some Netflix subscribers love the new design and the meaning behind it, while others say it gives them a "migraine." Some other people flat-out dislike it. It's not really surprising that something so simple created quite a divided range of reactions. Netflix tweeted, "It shows the spectrum of stories, languages, fans, and creators that make Netflix beautiful - now on a velvety background to better set the mood." What didn't change at all, however, is the sound you've heard a million and one times before your show or movie starts. The four-second-long bit rapidly zooms in on the famous red "N" and splits it into a bunch of thin, neon vertical lines in different colors. The streaming company unveiled a new logo animation that will appear before all Netflix originals beginning on Feb. It shows the spectrum of stories, languages, fans, & creators that make Netflix beautiful - now on a velvety background to better set the mood.Īnd before you ask: no, the sound isn’t changing /itwYXRe6ZF- See What's Next February 1, 2019Ĭhange can be hard, even when it comes to Netflix logos. Until Netflix fixes this, it seems that's the best we can do.SOME PERSONAL NEWS: Starting today there's a new logo animation before our originals. You might be getting 4k content even though in browse mode, the logo shows as HD. So, in summary, if you're having this problem, take a look at the actual stream statistics (Shift-Control-Option+D). The Netflix logo is seen at the Netflix Tudum Theater in Los Angeles, California, on September 14, 2022. And when watching an HD movie (older content) it shows 1920x1080. The Netflix logo is displayed at Netflix offices on Sunset Boulevard on in Los Angeles, California. Generally, it appears I'm streaming UHD movies in 4k regularly as the statistics show 3840x2160. Sometimes the resolution will change mid movie if my connection is week. Now, I'm not exactly sure what this signifies: is it the resolution of the currently streaming video? Or is it the resolution of the screen it is streaming to? Is the content being upscaled (or downscaled)? I think it is showing the actual resolution of the streaming content because a) when UHD resolutions are shown, the quality is very good and b) the resolution shown will often vary depending on the movie (older/newer, etc.) and on how close / far I am to the router and my throughput. If you look about halfway down the matrix-like gibberish (to me at least), you'll see "Playing bit rate" and it will show the resolution of the current viewport: 3840x2160 if in 4k. How? By using Netflix's super-secret keyboard code Shift-Control-Option+D which shows statistics about the currently streaming movie. HOWEVER: when I watch a movie, I'm able to see if it is indeed streaming in 1080p or in 4k. Somehow, the website needs to detect that a) you have the T2 chip, b) your monitor is running 60hz and c) that you have a fast internet connection. I say: This logo is way too big for its britches. Recently, I've been seeing the UHD logo sporadically which indicates that perhaps this is something they are working on. Be it Amazon Prime or Netflix, most of the streamers have followed cable and. So, while browsing, it will often show the plain old HD logo instead of UHD. It appears that Netflix doesn't always do a good job of detecting whether or not your computer / browser are capable of Ultra HD (UHD). I did reach out to Netflix (first thing I did) and obviously am aware of the note about "may not be available at all times." I usually post on the forums as a last resort, so I've typically exhausted all the obvious avenues.Īt any rate, an update if anyone is looking for solutions: ![]()
