August 31, 201313 yr Any ideas how to easily watch Netflix while playing KQ on the same computer? I realize that the obvious answer is to do them separately, but if there are any ideas? I have turned the HD off of the Netflix. I do not have cable, or a TV that I can hook up to my laptop.
August 31, 201313 yr You can also play KQ on lower quality (use this link, then right click and choose medium quality for navigating the board, and low quality for the minigames). I suspect it would make you lose a lot of minigames, though, and maybe overheat your computer. It's a lot of streaming and processing load. Can you download the movie before viewing (to at least cut down on clogging the tubes)? Close anything else that's not essential to the two activities, too.
September 1, 201313 yr If you're using a laptop and placing it on your lap during game play and streaming the bottom is going to get quite warm, even hot to the touch. I have a lap desk for mine and it works wonders. Not only does it provide a cool surface for my lap, but it makes having my macbook on my lap much more comfortable. If you manage to play Key Quest and stream from Netflix at the same time, you could also zoom out of the Key Quest window so that the game screen is smaller. That way you can resize your browser and have more room for your netflix video to show up. :) Good luck getting it to work! :)
September 1, 201313 yr Author Thanks :) And Siniri, Netflix isn't a download, it's a stream, so that really wouldn't work. However, I will have to try these suggestions.
