First thing go to standard view open netflix from video/connected media and log out.
Go to tools/options/tree & view/Web Browser to check version

Chromium go to C:\users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\J River\Media Center 17\Web\Cache and open Cookies in a text editor.
Find and delete any line that has a reference to netflix in it. If using notepad I recommend turning off word wrap to ensure you delete the full line.
Restart MC and Media Server if running.

Internet Explorer follow reply 3 here you may also want to follow the Chromium steps above to ensure you remove the rotten cookie.

After fixing the above error I am always presented with the login window I am trying to figure out how to remedy this.

Can you login with a browser?

[Scolex]

I can login fine it just doesn't remember the login even though I click the check box to remember.
IE9, Firefox 11 and Chrome 18 all remember.

After further investigation it appears that MC is not writing new cookies.
What I have tried so far:
Remove Netflix account from options, restart MC and/or computer re-enter account details.
Remove registry keys from HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JRiver\Media Center 17\Properties\WebMedia\Netflix
Login with remember me unchecked restart MC/Comp and then login with remember checked.

Switching from Chromium to IE saves the login but I have other issues unrelated to this when using IE.
I assume when using IE MC uses IE's cookie system instead of the built in system located in the MC appdata folder
which is the reason for the login remembrance.

A full un/re-install of MC with restart seems to have fixed the remember login.
Netflix can once again be found in the cookie file referenced above.

Any chance of creating a routine to check the cookie file for an occurrence of netflix and if none is found a new entry is saved.
This is assuming that MC thought that there was already a cookie saved so it wasn't writing a new one.
