Hi Netflix developers.
Yesterday, i've installed Netflix to test and see if it would fulfill my needs of instantly streaming DVDs and Blurays.
The website works perfectly, but I did come of to quite a rough start with My Netflix plugin.
-The installer did not work on 1.2 Beta - Had to install it manually by zip-file.
-There was no support of new defaultwide skin - so I had to copy files seperately.
-There is a general skin error, when entering Netflix
-Integrated webbrowser is outdated and has both buttons and frame on it - Has to overwrite manually from new forum version of Webbrowser.
-Navigation does not follow the general Mediaportal/plugin navigation.(Cannot press "Enter" on movies to play, Fullscreen is mapped to button "F").
-Skin layout seems to be buggy or outdated in Mepo 1.2Beta (Queue info box & List seems to have missing a background box - It can be hard to read text, it is mixed up with Poster/Coverart background)
-Coverart seems to be slow downloading - And when no coverart is found, there is not displayed a "default coverart" - Screen is just blank - Example "New releases - Only series)
-Trailer support does not seem to work (Linkfix from "original thread" does not work!)
-Navigation bugs - Several places, where you enter an error box, you can navigate back.(Example - Play trailer, and error occurs, navigation freezes - Have to reboot Mepo with CTRL+ALT+DELETE).
In general the plugin seems very promising, but has it flaws & bugs - Can see from changelog, that development seems to have stopped back in June 2010..........
Personally I will postpone my usage of Netflix, and await a more stable and supported development(Maybe in 1.2 Final?)
Keep up the nice work & development
