Sounds good. Its a Nice feature for a tv-series junkie as myself. Good work with all the swedish sites by the way!

I'm really excited about this plugin. I am able to log in and browses videos, however when I start a video I get .net error. Is there a specific .net version I need?

Error is: unhandled execption has occured etc.

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Is it a windows error message?
Do you have Internet Explorer installed?

Yes it's a windows error box. I'm running ie11 and netflix works in the browser.

Please collect your logs and attach it here.
Use the watch dog, pick the second alternative and reproduce the error. Unzip the zip-file, edit the extracted MediaPortal.xml, search for password and remove the entry/entries, re-zip the files.

I will take a look this evening (in Sweden, now it's 8:45 am).

I've just had to roll back my machine. To try this out, I had to install windows 7 sp1 (my install has been running perfectly so it hasn't been updated like, ever) for ie 11.

Since upgrading I was getting heaps of mepo errors when playing video. So an emergency roll back was needed to preserve my marriage

I'll do a full back up some time and try a fresh install.

Thanks for the help though.

There's problems with Netflix for OnlineVideos right now. It seems Netflix changing the website "under the hood", also it seem there's some kind of Canary release/deployment, since not all my clients behaves in a deterministic way. I'm on it but it testing some stuff as I type... But work tomorrow and its 1:30 am here in Sweden.... Need to sleep soon.

At the moment you cannot change profile and there is problems with search and content that are "Netflix original series". The other stuff should work.

Well now I have updated Netflix, I hope it works for you all!
I have added som new functionality, descriptions for separate titles, you can also enable descriptions in listings if you'd like (this slows things down; one extra call per item in list). Also there is the (experimental) possibility to "Watch Now" in the My List Category, meaning Netflix tries to play where you stopped the last time, e.g. you are watching Orange is the new black and the next episode for you to watch is 2x02 then this episode will automatically play.

All new features are turned of by default by design, the might not work every where.

If you enable "Watch Now" it might be a good idea to empty IE cache and cookies (if it does not work as expected).

I have not fully tested this release but I thought since some of the basics did not work I made the decision to release it anyways.

(Sorry for spelling and grammatical errors, did not proof read... now time for bed!!!!)

What about toogling Audio/Subtitles? (Kids only understand danish for now )

Might work in the next release of OnlineVideos, @Jason Pyke has made a heroic effort to get WifiRemote working with the Browser Player and it's a big possibility this could work with CEC also.

What about toogling Audio/Subtitles? (Kids only understand danish for now )

No plans for this. If you change to a kids profile you get native language in audio and no subtitles (in Sweden at least).
