I cannot for the life of me get my kodi 18.4 win64 setup sync with the official app (windows app/chrome, android, ios)... Everything i watch in an official app shows up in kodi (either in continue watching or the episodes have been marked as watched) but nothing i do in the netflix addon shows up in the official app.
It worked when it was still in beta but ever since I updated to the official repo (1.0.0 zip) it stopped working. Do need to manually update some things still or is this a knows issue?

Hi all,

I finally got this addon working on my 2015 Nvidia Shield TV in Kodi 18.5. I had to download the special nightly of Kodi for the Shield. In order to get 4K working I had to also enable "ignore display resolution" in the settings. Can anyone explain why this was necessary?

 I'm having this issue daffeh posted about as well though. If I watch something in the Kodi add-on, it is not updating the continue watching list with the show. It is not updated in the official Netflix app either.  I'm on version 0.15.10. Is there a solution?

Thank you for all help.  

I suggest you to read the main page of: https://github.com/CastagnaIT/plugin.video.netflix
you have to use "ignore display resolution" when your Kodi menus resolution is less than 4K

NF addon do not update continue watching 

Thank you for the reply and all the work to maintain this addon! Really appreciate the ability to access the Atmos soundtrack on my Shield TV.

Is the watch state feature something that can be added in the somewhat near future, or does it look challenging to implement?

Hello, plugin works perfeclty in Kodi with internal player. But...
I would like to enhance viewing of Netflix with additional video and audio renderers (madVR, DmitriRender, JRiver room correction, ...), hence I need to go through MPC-HC.

So, I try to use it with MPC-HC to open the video stream through the add on's service, but the player says "Failed to render the file".
Settings seems ok since the argument received is something like: http://localhost:7968/manifest?id=81026918 
... and should be the same as the one used by internal player of Kodi whith which it works perfecly well.

I don't understand what's going on. Can someone help me please?

Thank you in advance!

Trying to install Netflix to Beelink GT1 Mini@2 (Amlogic S905X3) I keep getting an error..... Here is the log....... I followed the instructions from page 1.

Instructions
Android
- Install the repository on your machine using Install from zip
- Enable Input Stream Add-on Add-ons >> Package icon >> My Add-ons >> Video Player Inputstream >> Inputstream Adaptive >> menu >> enable
- Install the addon from Addons >> Package icon >> Install from repository >> netflix repository >> video Ads-ons >> Netflix Add-on
- Configure the netflix Add-on with your Login details for netflix
- Copy your Netflix ESN id (android settings >> about) to the Add-on settings (expert >> ESN). Yes its really, really long!! UPDATE Feb-2019: you probably don't need to do this any more as the Add-on should auto find it.
- Restart Kodi IMPORTANT!!

Open a new github issue here:
https://github.com/CastagnaIT/plugin.video.netflix
I can provide you some test to do

Howdy,

I've been using the Netflix add-on on a couple of different systems (one at a time) for a while, and it has worked perfectly -- until half an hour ago, when I get the same error message on all systems:

"Netflix returned the following error:"
"Entity used incorrect key exchange data type."

I was using 0.15.10. I installed 0.15.11 manually but it made no difference.
Looks like something must have changed on their end.

Here's the full debug log: https://paste.kodi.tv/avaxotoxep.kodi

Any help appreciated.

Hi,

I tried the new export function. It deleted my old exports. After that I got a http-error and now the addon won't open any more (http-error too). I can upload a log tomorrow.

thx for help

Is there any way to make the plugin sync the watched status and "resume from" position with the one that Netflix uses?  So that if I use their official app to watch a couple episodes of a series I can pick up where I left off when I come back to my Kodi setup?

Hi,
Just a head up.
I could not get this app working by following the instructions for my Windows 10 64bit kodi install:
"Windows (64bit)
- Download the appropriate widevine dll from here

But could get to working it by copying widevinecmd.dll installed by chrome from:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\WidevineCDM\4.10.1582.2\_platform_specific\win_x64
after installing from here
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\cdm

Which Kodi platforms does this apply to, or 64-bit Windows only?

I haven't been able to get this add-on working on my Raspberry Pi 3B Raspbian Kodi installation.

If you have a problem with "cryptodome dependency" (look it up in your Kodi log) then read this post.

Important notification to users for next update (0.16.0)

In the next update, among other improvements, there is an important change for the future of the add-on that will make many users complain, at least initially.

A separate watched status marks for each profile has been introduced

What does that involve?
This means that any data stored by Kodi of a video played with a profile, will no longer be mixed with the other netflix profiles.

The side effect is that this cause a loss of all watched status marks you have currently saved.
But ONLY in the case you browse the lists WITHIN the add-on,
so NOT externally of the add-on like Kodi library, and, NOT in Netflix website.

For the moment i left the choice to the user to activate or not, this option,
you will be asked the choice at the first time you start the addon after the update.

You also can also return to the old method in real time (to temporarily restoring the existing watched status):
Go to add-on expert settings, by turning ON or OFF the "Keep watched status marks separate for each profile" option.

But remember that this choice i leave is TEMPORARY.
This is to give you time to take note of the videos already seen, and implement the change with less pain.
In future versions this change will be permanent! If you have not already made the change, you will no longer be able to recover the existing watched status.

This new version will be released i think in less than 7 days from today.
This is a notice you will have plenty of time to realize the change.
