New External App: Netflix Viewer

[dhgb256]

DH,

I think I know why it's not working.
From your last reply, I need to logon to Netflix.com.
Well my account is for Netflix.ca in Canada.
Your App. I assume is pointing to Netflix.xom website. Same service but different domain.
If this is indeed the problem then I hope that in the future there can be a selection available
for either service.

Thanks for all your help.

OK, when i type in http://www.netflix.ca it redirects me to the netflix.com website. I assume the reverse it true on your end? I can probably get this working if you send me your log files and provide some support on your end. If you are willing to help me out let me know, because I can't access the canadian site from here.

If you click on this link http://www.netflix.com/WiGenre?vt=tg&sgid=623 do you get an error, or does it open up the page?

Hi DH,

You are correct. When I select the .com site I get redirected to the .ca site.
Clicking on your link works fine for me. I do get redirected to this address... http://www.netflix.ca/WiGenre?pn=1&vt=tg&sgid=623
What logs are you referring to?
Yes I am willing to help with support from my end. Just let me know what you need and I will do what I can.

Thanks,

Tony...

OK, apparently the web function i am using does not automatically redirect. So I should be able to just add an option to the options menu to allow you to select Canada as your home base. Then make it change all .com to .ca

I'll send you a test version this evening after work.

I will give it a test as soon as it's available.

Hey Tony,

Give this a try for me. You need to add a line in your ini file that says "Canadian=True"

This sort of thing rarely works on the first try, but try it out and send me the log files if it doesn't work.

Thanks,

Hi DH,

It looks like it got much further this time.
I am sending you the logs.
If you need any other info, just let me know.

OK, good progress. It looks like the main page is the same format, but the movie screens must be different, because it can't find any of the movie info. Looks like I may need to release a canada specific database builder.

So what I need you to do:

1) Open http://www.netflix.ca/WiMovie/The-Wendel...kid=814906
2) Open the HTML source (in IE, press: "alt" --> "v" --> "c" (do not press all at the same time))
3) Press ctrl+s to save the source file.
4) Zip up the html document from step 3 and post it for me.

I'll need you to do this on a few other pages at some point, but this will get me started.

Thanks,

-DH

Thanks for all your hard work.
