I want to make use of Netflix's "watch instantly" feature using an
Intel iMac. I bought a mini-dv to HDMI adaptor, then routed it on to
my TV through a 10-foot hdmi cable. The TV then seems to be an
additional monitor sitting to the (virtual) right of my current
monitor. I can run the netflix movie in Safari, move that window to
the right, expand it and then move the (still unexpanded) safari screen
back to the left to be displayed on my monitor. This, then, leaves the
full-screen version on the TV. But no audio.

This seems kind of a hack. Are others doing this via HDMI? How do you
view Netflix streaming with this setup?

I went looking for such options, but before I connected them up. That
option doesn't exist *until* I open hook them together. I'll try next
time.
