I am using MC 18.0.106. Before I try upgrading to 19 I am wondering if you have found a way to get around selecting a profile when Netflix starts. Currently Netflix will start and not do anything until I get up and use the mouse to select my profile. I realize that Netflix doesn't care and won't do anything about it but has JRiver found a solution? Thanks.

I don't see this behavior in MC. When I start Netflix in MC, it just starts and loads my queue. If I go to the Netflix website, it wants me to select a profile there.

What version of MC are you using?
Are you starting Netflix from Theater view?

Thanks for answering. I appreciate it greatly.

It's happening for me too, but as it's a netflix things moreso than a MC thing, I don't see it getting "fixed" anytime soon...

Same here.

Maybe you're outside the U.S.?

Netflix isn't very helpful with their API.  Sorry.

I'm on version .056 now. I'm not having any issues with the profile thing - maybe I'm just lucky.
BTW - I don't have any other profiles setup in Netflic but myself (although I still have to click on "my profile icon" when I visit the Netflix website. Perhaps you have multiple profiles setup and that's causing your issue in MC Netflix.

Does not work for me. Is Netflix Canada supported?

[CountryBumkin]

I'm not in Canada, but regarding the profiles issue - I have not seen a post or problem with profiles since this original posting. I never get asked by Netflix to select a profile (probably because I only have one profile) whenever I log onto the website or start Netflix in MC.

One thing that is weird though - Sometimes a series that I add to my queue (like "Poirot" (the BBC detective series)) won't load the episodes in Theater View (the title/cover loads but when you click it on it sys "nothing to display", but I can watch them from my queue on the Netflix site.
