[QUOTE="WileECoyote, post: 482406, member: 83474"] Update.... RC2 is Out... Okay, I worked over the weekend and have run into a few snags. As Keith & DCWP have pointed out, sometimes movies are not available for instant viewing with my plugin, but are available on the NetFlix site. This is due in part, because data is being pulled from several different sources with this plugin. Let me explain.... 1. The queue management information is pulled directly from NetFlix (DVD Queue, Instant Queue, At Home Queue, Similars, History, Search & Recommendations) and this provides all the data like the synopsis, year, rating etc. 2. The other queues (New Release, Upcoming Release, Instant Search, Genre Search, etc...) pull data from a web service I have created to provide Instant search, new release and upcoming release capabilities. I pull raw data from NetFlix once or twice a week and populate my database. Sometimes data does not get updated correctly, or in some cases, the information coming from NetFlix is incorrect or outdated. 3. Backdrops are pulled from themoviedb.org RC1 format information (DVD, Blu-ray & Instant) for ALL the queries were being pulled from my web service. In RC2 I have changed the queue's listed in #1 above to pull format information directly from NetFlix, so all those queue's should display format information correctly. For those listed in #2 above the format information may or may not be correct. So you can see there are several pieces needed to bring the whole thing together. I have been working hard to convert most everything to rely on NetFlix API's, but some services particularly the Instant search, Genre Search, New Release Info & Upcoming Release Info will still need to be pulled from my web service until NetFlix provides an API to accomodate such queries. In any case, RC2 will clear up most issues... 1. Modified Most queues to pull format information from NetFlix 2. Modified Format Icons to be a little bigger (be sure to clear your skin cache!) 3. A few other bug fixes 4. Refactoring of Movie Info 5. Added Login name to show in the upper left on some skins 6. Added DVD preference to show in the uppper left on some skins As always, if you have any issues please post your logs and let me know what movies/series/shows you are having an issue with. Wile E. Hey Poppabk, Thanks for the feedback. Which skin are you using? [/QUOTE]
