New External App: Netflix Viewer

[Snooze]

Yeah you are a few behind now

I had to rush the update due to my previous snafu, but I was planning on adding in your request for movies you'll love. I'll put it in the next update.

Meaning that the 2.9.1.0 version on sage is saying 2.9.0.1 when opening the app. So it is nagging if you have auto notify updates enabled. Maybe a typo in the exe?

Hi dh,

I haven't used the app in the last little while, but I went to try it today...didn't work (needed to update the database...which it wouldn't do), and I noticed that there has been a bunch of updates since last being here. So I've updated to the latest 2.9.1.0 version, but I can't seem to do anything.

I've changed the _canadian.ntf file over. I've tried both with setting the cookie trouble variable to false and true but nothing seems to be working.

Basically the Database builder opens and sits at step 1of2, then just closes. If I try and go through the viewer, it reports there is no database, and starts the builder...which does nothing, closes, and causes the viewer to drive the CPU close to 100%.

I've attached 2 movieinfo/log directory. Once when I had the Cookie Trouble=False, the other with Cookie Trouble=True.

The other odd thing was that when the Cookie Trouble was set to True, it didn't ask me for the logon/password.

Finally, I know Netflix messes with their address, so currently if I type in netflix.ca, it's redirected here:
ca.movies.netflix.com/WiHome

Hope all this helps.

You might want to check the version on your exe file and make sure sage is pointing to the correct file. The version number on the splash screen is taken from the build number programatically, I don't enter that manually. It probably means you are still using version 2.9.0.1.

You are having the exact opposite problem that the US site had a few versions ago. This is the problem with keeping up with two different country versions, I made a change to fix the US site and it crashed the canadian version.

Try the attached and let me know if it works.

Yep, appears to be working now (currently on 2of2 of the builder). Funny...I had updated to the version prior to this one (before updating to the latest), and had the logon/pass for the Cookie Trouble. It then finished 1of2 then stopped. I knew something was off when it didn't even ask for the log/pass with this new version.

Most likely the Canadian site will go the same as the US. Sucks that they are so different. Anyways, thanks again for your promptness, very much appreciated.

No problem, I put out a release that fixes the problem.

Shoot...spoke to soon. The builder seemed to go fine. But now when loading Viewer, it just sits there and says "LOADING, Please Wait". How long does it sit like this for?

*UPDATE*
Never mind, it finally came up with the list of movies.
Now all is good in the world.

Your right. I had 2.9.0.5 and then after download and install from zip file "named" 2.9.1.0 the download/splash screen said 2.9.0.1. Checked the version and it was the wrong one in the zip.... Anyways... movies you will love causes a .net crash in 2.9.1.1.

I like this app, but I am almost ready to give up on it. The Database build program continually crashes. I have upgraded to the most recent build 2.9.1.0 and it still cannot complete a download. This is all that ever gets logged. Hope you can help. I have 2 PCs that it fails on in the same manner. Both run Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. I am in the US.
