Netflix in Theater View
« on: July 02, 2013, 05:21:02 pm »
I can't seem to get Netflix working in Theater View, it just says there are no items to display.

If I just go to Connected Media > Netflix it seems fine from there.

I did enter my details in Services Manage Netflix account. However I tried to go back and re-enter but it doesn't respond any more.

What am I doing wrong?

It's been taking a long time to load Instant Queue and Recommendations for me for a few releases now... As in go away, put the kettle on, make a coffee few minutes...

It's a Netflix issue.

They have chosen to close their API and only give support to Developers they deem worthy, in the name of their bottom line.

I think Netflix should just be removed from MC at this point,  as these threads keep popping up.

I've said before that perhaps the Search and Recommended options should be removed, but as they are still working (at least for some) I don't know that playback should be removed completely...

I still like Netflix, although I'm fustrated with them too from time-to-time - but I don't have cable/Sat anymore and I can't find much else to entertain me. Hulu and YouTube just don't have the same integrated experience for me as Netflix. I would really like to see some way to integrate Amazon Prime into MC, but that's not going to happen. So, please keep Netflix for a while longer.
PS. The "Recommended" category has not worked for me since the API changed and removed the categories.

I'd like to see Amazon as well since I'm already a Prime member.  BUT...since that's probably not going to happen: I'm thinking about buying a Roku 3 to fill in the gaps from MC18.  Anybody have experiences with these?

Am thinking of doing the same.
