PS3 gets Netflix

[Ketna]

I have a quick question for you PS3/netfilx users. Is there anyway to tell if a show/movie is available in HD before you add it to your instant queue? If there is I must be blind, I've been looking that info for like an hour lol.

Nope.

There are a few constraints that affect what is HD for a device currently and I can't say if those constraints will be the same by the time we've updated the API to support HD-specific title queries. API support for these types of richly parametrized title queries are one of the top features we want to provide in the future, but there is a significant amount of work required to enable them in a way that is both extensible as well as high-performance and scaleable.

I don't think there is via the NetFlix site, but there is if you're adding stuff through the PS3 UI. If a show/movie is in HD then it will have a little HD icon next to the rating ([PG-13][HD] for example). Of course, why anyone would use the PS3 UI outside of just accessing what you already queued up through the website it beyond me.
