Netflix plugin?

[elodis]

Considerably faster! - Screen loaded in about 3 seconds on a AMD sempron 3400, 756MB ram - cable modem

I copied newskin.xml over to skin2\Community3\Netflix as well and all seems to work fine in Community 3 skin as well

very impressive considering it's loading over 3000 movies!

that should create some navigational challenges..

great work!

Glad to hear it. I plan adding additional navigation options but that isn't priority at the moment.

I'm using WinXP w/ 1.5.1 GBPVR.exe and it's not showing up in my main menu. The plugin is activated in the config and my directories matchup. Does this only work with PVRX2?

Yes, its only for PVRX2.exe.

Will this work with the MVP?

What I'm thinking of is the ability to look through a list of movies, select one and have it play. All of this via the MVP, since I rarely watch anything on the PC.

Either way, it sounds like a great plugin' whurlston!

The list and download (once I get the download working) should work on the MVP but because of the DRM you will not be able to play the movies.

don't worry, you are not missing much yet. So far it is just the list.

Argh!!! I was about to run what I hoped to be a final test on the movie download and the Netflix website is down for maintainence. I hope they don't do something to break my code again. That's already happened once this past week.

Once the download is working, I just have to add the details popup and the actual player.

Well, I'm off to bed. I'm not waiting up 3 hours to test it.

finally got the time to download the "watch now" file.
when I choose it on the menu, there is lots of drive access for a few seconds, then nothing. it just stays on the menu screen.
the first time I tried it, I waited about 15 mins before I hit "reset"

I am doing this on a client.

That drive access is probably because it's downloading all the posters. I don't have any logging enabled yet but maybe the error is in the main GB-PVR logs. Zip and post your pvrx2*.log files after trying it.

Oh, you may want to read my next post first though
