New External App: Netflix Viewer

Doing that change made it actually work! Spot on as you said, it updated that star ratings and loaded the movies . Nice! It even seems to work with location set to Norway, but Unblock-US is still active and that might just be what's needed.

Excellent, let me know if you run into any movies that you can't watch. That was the primary issue when I was trying to get this to work in Canada. They would get the catalogue, but couldn't watch half the movies because the netflix catalogues were different between US and Canada.

I will change the Canadian option, so it works for anyone outside the US, I'll let you know when the new release is ready.

I haven't had the time to test much, but I noticed a couple of videos Netflix said something like "Not available to watch", so maybe that's the case here too. I'll test more the next days and report back.

From what I have read, if you are using unblock you should be able to access all of the US catalogue by setting your location to US. What you will miss using my program is any movies/shows available in Norway that aren't available in the US.

At the time I noticed it, Unblock was set to Norway in order to get Norwegian subtitles, I'll do more testing during this weekend.

Sorry for the late response, I finally found the time to do a bit of testing. I can confirm that there are certain movies I can only watch when location in Unblock is set to US, if I try with location set to Norway Netflix says that the movie is not available. Apart from that things seems to be working, I'v watched most of the 4400 :o

Excellent, I'll go ahead and get out a version that allows you to turn off the queue, so you don't crash the program accidentally. FYI, I loved the 4400 show, hated when it got cancelled.

Just so you don't think i forgot. I am ticking away at a few bugs/annoyances that I need to clear up and I should have an updated version out in a few days.

Updated version is now available. Let me know if there are any issues.

wow, been awhile since any activity in this thread. must mean Netflix Viewer is working well for everyone.

I have a minor issue, wondering if it's just my system as no one else appears to be having the problem...

since upgrading to the latest, 3.6.1.3, when exiting the viewer I've found it often if not always leaves behind an open internet explorer window with the Netflix page of whatever show I was viewing. sometimes there are multiple tabs open. we've learned to close them with the remote (power button sends Alt-F4, then OK if it shows the Close All Tabs? diaglog), so it hasn't been too much trouble. But I never had this with any previous version.

Thoughts?
