Netflix Watch Now beta

[rachnjake]

I don't have a remote connected at the moment so I only tested the keyboard commands. I'm recoding the player portion from scratch anyway. The current build is still the old player.

You should be able to modify your skin file to accomodate it. I only have a HD displays so anything I change would be complete guesswork.

uhhh, I just need to have more patience..... after a higher percentage downloads the ff/rr buttons work fine.
...I'm a network guy, but I have a basic understanding of what you mean. I'm using the community skin plugin, so which file would I need to modify? I have some programmers at work that could help me with the details.

You should have two skin files in your "skin2\<skin name>\Netflix" folder:
skin.xml
DetailsPopup.xml

any other xml files are left over from the old version and are not used.

skin.xml is the main plugin page and DetailsPopup.xml is for the movie details.

See http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=33070 for a tutorial on skinning for the Community skin.

okay, apparently some of the TV still works for me.

can someone please see if you can download an episode of "red dwarf" series 5 please??
then I will know if it is my problem only or not.

I found several that wont download, but that is the one I want to watch.

Red Dwarf season 5 is no longer available for watch now. I'll update the list tonight.

WHAT!!??!!??!?!?!?!

I watched series 1-4, and got halfway through 5 when it quit!!!!!!!!!!!!

I need a name, address, and address of the parents of the guy responsible for removing red dwarf from there.






on a side note--
I think it would be pretty cool if you could delete a saved movie through the downloads menu.

I plan to add this at some point

List is updated. You can update it in the plugin by selecting "Update" on the left. If you have any movies that have been downloaded that are no longer available via Watch Now, they will not appear in the categories lists but they will still be in your downloads list until you delete them. It seems that they are still playable.

If anyone comes across any funny characters in text (titles, descriptions, etc) let me know the name of the movie. I think I am converting them all but it's possible that I missed some.

Also, is there any interest in a "Top 50 Watch Now" category, or Watch Now from the Top 100 (may not contain 100 watch now)?

[bogyver]

I would be interested in a top 50 or top 100 and also Thanks for this great plugin

[whurlston]

I also plan on adding the option for enabling all the categories like SciFi, Thrillers, etc. It would use the Movies main genre for this and it would have the benefit of having less movies to scroll through in a list.

[agidius]

genre would be cool
