The CX IFE system is actually virtually identical to LX as far as I can remember, although I have a snaeking feeling that the LX system is a tad more user friendly (i.e. you could actually use the stop, pause, rewind keys to do just that). I might be imagining this last bit tho (I had quite a lot to drink in the BA lounge before my LX flight).
I flew LX last year HKG-ZRH-TLV and found the IFE system to be almost unusable. It kept hanging and the FAs had to reset it. Has it been improved since then. Didn't have any problems with the IFE on CX.
