dhgb256, did you see my latest log? I hope it helps.

Yes, I did. I've been having a family weekend, so i just got a chance to look at them. Please do the following to test:

1) Do NOT delete your current movieinfo.ntf file.
2) Open the program and open the rating screen (hit enter on the star raing field) on a move you haven't rated on Netflix. You should get a message like "Movie blah is rated blah stars." Let me know what you get.
3) repeat step 2 with a movie you have rated on Netflix.
4) Run "netflix tx desktop.exe" /update I pulled out all of the code that downloads the movie info and it will only update the star ratings, so it should take less than a minute to run this. Send me your logs when done.

Hopefully I'll get everything I need from this.

clicked enter on the stars for 2 days in paris (currently unrated by me), hey it worked rated 3.2 stars... checked 100 women which I rated with your app as 2 stars earlier, it worked, showed up as two stars.
changed time to renew to 0 in the ini, ran "netflix tx desktop.exe" /update

all movies including the preview two I just checked still show as 5 stars unless I click on the stars and press enter after which it shows the correct rating.
I thought maybe canadians have their own sub-genre but I didn't see anything like that on the categories list. I just noticed that my recently viewed category is empty as well.

Code:

Maxrecords: 50
<h1>414 Request Uri Too Long</h1>
System.String[]
Maxrecords: 49
<h1>414 Request Uri Too Long</h1>
System.String[]
Maxrecords: 48
<h1>414 Request Uri Too Long</h1>

maybe ask the guys over at instantwatcher.com, they seem to have figured out the canadian availability. Looks like it has something to do with delivery_formats, availability etc

Yeah, I am looking at delivery format and availability and it is still not giving me the right information. I'll see if I can get someone over there to help me out.

As for the star ratings, I am using the EXACT same call to get the stars for the rating screen as I am for the database update. I have reduced the length of the URI, so please try the attached version and do the /update. Send me the logs.

We are still in Beta for Canada, but it looks like we have significant progress. Now I just need to get Netflix to fix the catalog and we'll be all set. You are still getting a couple of errors towards the end of the star update, but I think that maight be us trying to get user ratings for movies that aren't available in Canada. At least that is my theory.
