My NetFlix 2.0 Update News & Community Feedback (4 Viewers)

Update...

Okay guys, been hard at work on 2.0 and its coming along quickly. A few functionality questions for users with multiple queues....

As I mentioned before, you can have multiple logins on the new myReelTalk site for one Netflix account. The reason for this is so you can have more than one queue within the MediaPortal My Netflix plugin. For instance, if Bill & Dottie both create individual accounts, they will be able to register both those accounts in the plugin. Both will have their own individual Favorites & Watch queue, but will share the Instant Queue (Netflix only allows for one Instant queue.)

Now, how do we want those to display? I have two options for the flow...

Option 1:

-Bill
---Instant Queue
---Favorites
---Watch Queue
---Friends
---History
---Recommendations

-Dottie
---Instant Queue
---Favorites
---Watch Queue
---Friends
---History
---Recommendations

Option 2:
-Instant Queue
---Bill
---Dottie
-Favorites
---Bill
---Dottie
-Watch Queue
---Bill
---Dottie
-Friends
---Bill
---Dottie
-History
---Bill
---Dottie

I am open to either option, or any other flow that you guys come up with. Please sound off and let me know your thoughts.

Thanks!
Wile E.

Thanks for the feedback guys, it looks like Option 1 is winning out (Sorry TLD.) I have started to impliment Option 1, so if there are others out there that prefer Option 2 please speak up now (i'm not really in the mood to refactor more code .)

Thanks again!
Wile E.

Update...

shhhhh... Don't tell anyone, but I plan to have an Alpha version of the plugin available next week, probably around mid to late week. Now that the myReelTalk.com site is completed, the 2.0 plugin development is going rather quickly. It will be completely view only (you wont be able to add anything to your queues), but navigating and playing movies will work fine (should work fine .)

The only skin (Initially) that will be available is Default Wide.

Does anyone want to volunteer to do some skinning for the new version?

Stay tuned....

EDIT:
Speaking of skins, can people start posting back which skins they are using so we can get a list of ones we need to support?
