hello all,
I am having trouble getting my login credentials to carry over from IE into the NetflixMCE beta (newest build) I have read the .pdf that comes with the download and I have made the protected mode change to internet explorer. I also reset IE setting to default and wiped out all saved username and password and re-logged in to Netflix non-Facebook account. I have uninstalled and reinstalled NetflixMCE and tried again still same issue. As soon as I launch Netflix it shows the red splash screen then briefly flashes the netflix login page, then goes to the all white screen that says you must log into netflix from IE on this computer. I am running Windows 7 x64. Any suggestions are appreciated thanks.
I have also emailed in the feedback regarding this.

I was seeing something similar, I had to run this Silverlight fix-it download from Microsoft to cure the problem.

It seems that the native Netflix app in WMC is still partially working in that the interface works 100% and once a movie is launched you are now redirected to a browser within WMC for playback. The problem we have is no remote control inputs work, my display will go to sleep and you get a mouse cursor on the screen. What your app and how the native Netflix app work now are very similar is there anyway your app can be modified to control the native Netflix app and keep the machine awake while playback through the browser?

RonDMC/All,
Please see the PDF file that was included with the software. A can't monitor all discussion boards for issues - I need you guys to send feedback as directed at the end of the release notes. It's the only way I can collect the necessary info to help you.
Thanks,
Marc

Wow, this is a really great start. I've also been hoping for a good Amazon Video solution for some time, and this thread lead me to that, too. Donation coming your way on one condition. If you get rich off all of us Media Center Junkie holdouts, you promise not to move to the Caribbean and abandon these projects. I'm serious! Really excited to keep my (multiple) one box solutions in place for a while longer. Sad MS has such a short attention span that it cannot support any of it's good, useful projects to maturity (outside of Xbox)...Cheers All.

Ditto on the screensaver issue. The app does not seem to disable the screensaver timer. Once it hit the time limit, it kicks out of the active movie and goes back to the menu. Simple fix for now is extending the screensaver timeout.

Hi,
I installed the NetflixMCE add in on windows media center. However, when I launch Netflix it wouldn't let me log in. There's a prompt that says "Welcome to NetflixMCE. Before using the addin please login to Netflix from Internet Explorer on this PC. Click the Media Center Button to exit." I logged into the Netflix internet explorer but still it wouldn't resolve the issue.

Hello,
Great plugin! I noticed a bug where the plugin would crash on startup if I have an empty watch list. Once I added something to my list it works good now.

newfriend, make sure Protected Mode in IE is disabled and you are not deleting your History on exit. Then the login should pass through from IE to the addin.

I'm guessing that the amazon plug in isn't working now?
I also am trying to download the Netflix plug in but it isn't showing in my download directory. Do I need to be logged in to the download site?
Also, will this bring 5.1 audio or is that just not going to happen in Win7?
Thanks.

quick note from his site about the plugin...
12/12 UPDATE: On December 8th, Microsoft released an update for Windows Media Center (MS15-134 KB 3108669) that changes how Media Center opens URLs. With this update installed, all URLS open in Internet Explorer- outside of Media Center. This update is not compatible with the AmazonMCEAddin and I cannot code around it. If you wish to continue using the addin you will need to uninstall this update.

I just installed this and I must say nice work. Couple of issues I am having.
1 when I scroll to the bottom of any page I.E. main or within series I get an error flash on the screen, it crashes and goes back to WMC.
2 If I have logged in under kids mode it does not work with the remote.
Keep up the great work!
