Hello there,

Could anyone help me with a problem I'm having with lovefilm desktop.

When I watch movies on lovefilm desktop the picture flickers. Could anyone offer any advice about this?

Thanks.

Pity Pipelight requires Wine, though. A lot of guff for this one little function ...

It works near perfect, it's just that when there is a fast moving scene there is an obvious and quite annoying flicker. It doesn't happen when I stream from other sources such as youtube and I've checked to see if my Video drivers are up to date and they appear so. I read that it's possible to run firefox through wine and then silverlight would work without the need for the desktop lovefilm app. Does that make any sense? Thanks.
