(2015-03-25, 22:41)phunkkify Wrote: I'd love to watch Netflix in XBMC, but I can't get the plugin to work.

Situation:
- OSX Yosemite
- XBMC 13.2
- Multiple profiles in Netflix
- Installed Chrome Launcher

Issue:
The screen on which I should be able to select a profile stays blank with only a title saying "Who's watching?".

What I've tried:
- Updating the chooseProfile() method; the fix provided here doesn't help though.
- Installing the addons (Chrome Launcher and Netflixbmc) on a different system that runs Kodi 14.1, but no luck.
- I'm not sure if I should do anything about the Chrome Launcher configuration.

Side questions to hopefully solve this issue:
- How can I be sure that my Chrome Launcher works?
- Where can I find addon specific log messages? Simply enable debugging and tail ~/Library/Logs/kodi.log?

Thanks in advance for any help :-)

Open this file:

Code:

/path/to/Kodi/addons/plugin.video.netflixbmc/default.py

Go to line 789 and change this:

Code:

match = re.compile('"decodedName":"(.+?)".+?guid":"(.+?)".+?experience":"(.+?)"', re.DOTALL).findall(content)

to this:

Code:

match = re.compile('"firstName":"(.+?)".+?guid":"(.+?)".+?experience":"(.+?)"', re.DOTALL).findall(content)

Once you change decodedName to firstName, the profile selection screen works again.

My line 789 reads this:

Code:

ok = True

And the string "decodedName" can't be found in the entire default.py file..

To be precise:
- Have a clean plugin with an unchanged chooseProfile() method
- I'm editing

Code:

~/Library/Application\ Support/Kodi/addons/plugin.video.netflixbmc-1.3.4/default.py

Even when applying the change in the chooseProfile method the line numbers don't match, plus I get a script error in Kodi (and XBMC).

Any advice?

Yep should just work as the website is actually the same

I'm using NetfliXBMC with an Australian account and have had problems.

For example, if you try to list seasons of an "Australian Netflix Only" TV Show, the error described by Cr0wl3r above occurs. That is:

Quote:..\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\plugin.video.netflixbmc\default.p​y", line 1119, in <module>
listSeasons(name, url, thumb)
..\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\plugin.video.netflixbmc\default.p​y", line 431, in listSeasons

This error occurs in default.py:getSeriesInfo method. This method forms a Netflix API query that includes a country code.
The country code is retrieved from settings and is defaulted to US.
Netflix then returns empty XML because the US does not show this series. If you change the country code to AU everything works.

To fix the problem I added the "language" line to settings.xml:

Quote: <category label="30202">
<setting id="username" type="text" label="30101" default=""/>
<setting id="password" type="text" option="hidden" label="30102" default="" />
<setting id="language" type="text" label="30128" default="en-AU"/>

This settings change will allow you to modify the language to "en-AU" so Australian content is available.

This worked for me, however, you may want to change the language line default to en-US for general release, but JasonPell may suggest a better way to do this.

In the source of the page in http://www.netflix.com/WiHome, I found:

netflix.StoreGeoLocation( 'AU', 'en' );

So that would avoid having to have a setting. I will take a look at it as well as the better call Saul issue.

Yeah, that would be best, as long as that would work ok with a vpn or dns.

Are you sure you are using a version of plugin from http://www.alelec.net/kodi/repository.alelec.zip

I just made the change myself in this plugin and the decodedName is definately there
