[QUOTE="Vaelek, post: 400843, member: 89287"] I finally have updated to the latest version to try this out some more. After copying over the new files, starting MP and launching the plugin, MP just froze between screen transitions. After finally making it to task manager (only vnc access to HTPC), watchdog had been triggered, and there was also a credentials window open but hidden. After ending MP forcibly, I saw that I was being asked to authorize again. not sure if this is just an odd glitch for me or if something changed/if anyone else is having this issue. Perhaps this would be another occasion to look into using a browser control within MP rather than launching an external one. After trying this a few times, and the same thing kept happening, I then started MP in windowed mode. when I enter My Netflix, a dialog is opened outside of MP asking if I have entered my credentials, along with an IE window prompting to show insecure items. Both of these are stuck behind the MP window which is stuck in mid screen transition. The X for the insecure items dialog was just barely in view so I was able to close that and continue with the authorization. i then closed the IE window, but could not go any further. Only after doing a side-by-side arrange of desktop windows was I able to see the credentials dialog to click yes, at which point MP continued loading the plugin. Finally working through that, I went back to full screen and entered the instant queue. everything appears ok visually, but will not play. From the log I have: 2009-04-04 09:27:50.946361 [ERROR][MPMain]: MyNetFlixMain:OnAction(): Error Playing Movie: Jim Breuer: Heavy Metal Comedy : Cannot start process because a file name has not been provided. 2009-04-04 09:28:26.387452 [ERROR][MPMain]: MyNetFlixMain:ShowInstantQueueMenu: Error Playing Movie: Jim Breuer: Heavy Metal Comedy Error:Cannot start process because a file name has not been provided. 2009-04-04 09:28:30.882282 [ERROR][MPMain]: MyNetFlixMain:ShowInstantQueueMenu: Error Playing Movie: Cashback Error:Cannot start process because a file name has not been provided. 2009-04-04 09:28:55.613121 [ERROR][MPMain]: No translation found for id 110099 This was using Blue3Wide as I haven't yet installed StreamedMP on my HTPC yet. I also want to mention that I think, and I'm sure others would agree, that the "Play" button needs to be rethought. Having a graphic that appears to be a button that says "Play" that comes with the explanation that it does not play it only indicates you could play it, no disrespect, but I feel this is completely assenine. If it is to indicate it is available for instant play, then it should indicate so, accurately. If it is to appear as a play button, then it should function as a play button. In my school of thought, making one thing appear to be something else that has to come with an explanation and is a source of frustration and confusion, is never a good thing from a design standpoint.
