Yup. Your issue is exactly the same as that of agienne's. If you are not changing the location of the WatchNow cache folder in the config, create a folder called "WatchNow" in the "plugins\NetFlix" folder.

I'll add logic to create the folder if it doesn't exist.

Yep it works... something that might want to be thought about is a progress bar for the downloads

It's on the todo list.

Sweet i'll be your guinea pig.. I'm getting new mobo processor so hopefully that will help

I'm not sure when I'll get to it though. My main priorities now are getting the TV Series working and some type of search capability working.

Try this one. It will also check a secondary file ( [username]@www.netflix* ) as well as let us know the exact file location it was checking.

Thank you! This helped a lot!
OK, got it to display the download list. I still need to play with the watch movie though.

Here is what I found:
1) There are some entries looking for xsuite. Not sure why.
2) The cookie name was wrong. You had it as <First_lastname@netflix.com>. My cookie was named <first lastname@netflix.>. Notice the underscore.

Thank you

That's not the Netflix plugin. I have no references to xsuite. The only thing I'm referencing at the moment is CommonGBPVRUtilities.dll

Hmm. On my system, a space in the username is converted to an underscore in the filename. It may be a Vista thing. I will add code to check for spaced names as well.

I have to run out but I'll have another test for you in a few hours.

I figured as much. I'll have an update for you later tonight that should solve it.
