When I go into Netflix and start watch a movie the picture on my Samsung TV jumps 3 or 4 times every few seconds. Then it settles down.

I can't avoid this and it's annoying especially as the Netflix picture quality is still improving during those early moments, so I get a horrible viewing experience.

Is this happening only to me or is it common?

It all depends on your internet speed and connection.

This would suggest your connection is not fast enough, are you connected wirelessly, perhaps you can try a power plug. Although get a decent one, cheap ones are ok but my Samsung player had the problem you describe with them and I had to buy better ones which allowed a faster connection.

My Tv is connected to my router by an ethernet cable.

I only get this poor quality when I start playing a movie. Otherwise the movie plays in HD and plays faultlessly. So I don't think it would be the connection.

Any other ideas? Thanks for any help.
