With the way Criterion curates this service, I feel it really lends itself to some kind of recurring discussion. The collections really lend themselves to a film club of sorts.
don't worry people want to make steam shitty tooI wish we could just get a steam for movies, shows and video content. Fucking hate this dystopian streaming future.

I suggested awhile back in Arthouse Cinema OT that we focus most discussion of Criterion/arthouse films to that thread, but was instead referred to the regular monthly movies discussion one. Which is kind of discouraging for me, seeing as how that thread is sometimes taken over for pages at a time by responses to the latest Star Wars or MCU or what-have-you Hollywood blockbuster. Reviews of art films tend to get swallowed up in the melee. But whatever, I guess.With the way Criterion curates this service, I feel it really lends itself to some kind of recurring discussion.

Sit the fuck down and watch Stalker. Phenomenal film.I am honestly overwhelmed with what to watch here.
Do I rewatch some of my favorites from Asian cinema? Do I do a spontaneous pick on a random movie? Should I finally sit the fuck down and watch Stalker?
Also people, go watch Tampopo, goddamnit.
My badI've got Ozu on my list. I suggested mostly samurai/chanbara as that's what Stinkles expressed interest in.
P.S. I suggested 9 Kurosawas, but I've seen 26, and only thought 3 or 4 had weaknesses.

Needs some Mikio Naruse and Hiroshi Shizimu, but only if you like Ozu. And Kobayashi (Human Condition trilogy).It does not work on Xbox One:

Anyone using this with a proxy ?
Unfortunatly it's not available here in France (And I doubt that it will ever be)...
Thanks for sending this over. Our engineers are aware of this issue and are working to fix the problem as soon as possible. We appreciate your patience while they look into this and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
I got a response from Customer Support concerning the frame judder issue:
Positive response. I guess we'll see if they can fix this. I just hope it will be before the end of my trial period.
Yeah, pretty annoying. I've been watching a lot of old Chaplin movies and stuff and there aren't lengthy end credits, so that error pops up at a terrible time.My only complaint so far is the Error Code 3 popping up at the end of some of the films still. I was hoping that would be a quick fix for them.

what is absolutely infuriating is the fact that chromecast WAS listed as supported device
DRM on Vimeo OTT uses a combination of the following technologies in our apps and experiences:
When you download an app for your subscription, whether it's for Android, iOS, Android TV, tvOS, Roku, or Fire TV, it's most likely going to be compatible with DRM. The current versions of all major browsers, including Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Safari, and Firefox should also be supported. However, DRM support is different from device to device, and across versions and operating systems. Given the wide range of devices out there, we're unable to provide a definitive list of compatibility.
- Apple Fairplay on iOS, TVOS devices, and Safari browsers
- Google Widevine Modular on Android, Android TV devices (including FireTV), and Chrome browsers
- Microsoft PlayReady on Roku and Microsoft Edge browser
What are known incompatibilities?
DRM-protected content will not work on the following:
If you'd like to double check your system's compatibility, you can look into your device's support for the DRM standards above. Many device manufacturers publish these specifications for their devices along with relevant help documentation.
- Desktop browsers: Chrome 63 and older and Firefox 57 and older
- Chromecast devices
- Chromebooks
- XBox One
- Older models of Amazon Fire TV that are not Widevine L1 certified. However Fire TV Cube, Fire TV Gen 3, and Fire TV Stick 4K should work
- All non-branded VHX apps
- Linux systems

Chromecast is in fact listed as NOT compatible:
I recommended an Amazon Fire TV box/stick earlier, as every model of it except the long discontinued gen 1 and gen 2 models are explicitly stated as compatible.
I said was. They removed it somewhere between when I subscribed and today when I got my gosh darned chromecast working and then googled several similarly tragic tales.
Xbox One and Ps4 are not in and of themselves incompatible with that DRM standard - that's a software layer that Criterion can implement in software but haven't yet and I hope they do.
While I don't know when you subscribed, I do know that Chromecast has been listed as not compatible since at least the 10th (two days after launch).
The Xbox One's Edge browser seems to be DRM compatible, so yeah, they should get on that.
Those are just the day things go up, right? Also, is it just for the month or how long will they last?May additions are up:

Really solid looking lineup. Looking forward to checking out Joanna Hogg's work leading up to The Souvenir. Excited for the Reichart and Hong Sang Soo as well. Plus The Third Man collection! Looking forward to checking out those extras since the disc is OOP.
Where did you find that page? I browsed through the help section, and did a couple searches in it, and couldn't find anything like that. The only pages I have seen compatibility information are the links below.
https://www.criterionchannel.com/help/watching/supported-browsers
https://www.criterionchannel.com/help/watching/drm-and-hdcp
Did you perhaps bookmark it at a prior date, and now the reference to it has been removed?
In any case, CC's help section does still have some very outdated information. For example, a reference to an Xbox app that was announced for Criterion's previous streaming offering Filmstruck back in 2017, but never released.
It's amazing.
