RE: [RELEASE] NetfliXBMC - Unofficial Netflix Add-on (Win/OSX/Linux) - Thread 2 - Sleuth255 - 2015-10-11
It looks like the retrieve episodes feature of api-global.netflix.com isn't working any more. This plugin uses the netflix internal api to retrieve series/episode info. The episodes api call it uses is now returning no data. I did check a few other known uses of that API and they are still working however. For example:
Code:
http://api-global.netflix.com/desktop/search/autocomplete?term=Mad+MenAnyway, here's the call to their internal API that's failing:
Code:
http://api-global.netflix.com/desktop/odp/episodes?languages="+language+"&forceEpisodes=true&routing=redirect&video="+seriesID+"&country="+countryBad news is that this call is being used in ZumZen's code too. So much for the theory that the internal API would remain fairly robust/intact...

Ok, after sleeping on this my next step is to wireshark trace phone traffic while using its netflix app to retrieve episodes. Maybe I'll be able to see something interesting...
edit nope. It's all TLS...

You'll want to use Fiddler with HTTPS debugging:

RE: [RELEASE] NetfliXBMC - Unofficial Netflix Add-on (Win/OSX/Linux) - Thread 2 - Iveoles - 2015-10-12
I've gotten past that before using an app on the Mac, I don't have it handy as I'm on my phone. Unfortunately trying to understand the output was very difficult, it's not like the old endpoint. It looks very similar to the Ajax calls you can see when using the site.
I thought about finding an older device that has Netflix and listening to that. Unfortunately the oldest thing I have is an Apple TV which is fairly up to date. Does anyone else have something old they can set up an http proxy on?

Hi there,
seems there is again a problem with Netflixbmc in Germany.
When opening a series to see the episodes you will get a script error.
I installed the latest plugin from the repository.
I still running Kodi 14.2, but don't think that's the problem
Here the log file as I tried to open Lost.
Hope you guys can help me to fix that.

Sorry it's a no on two fronts. When the addon is fixed it will certainly be published here first.
Secondly, it's never worked on raspberry pi (as stated on first post). If netflix doesn't work in chrome on the platform, it's not going to work in this plugin.
RE: [RELEASE] NetfliXBMC - Unofficial Netflix Add-on (Win/OSX/Linux) - Thread 2 - Sleuth255 - 2015-10-20
Would anybody here find any value in a version of this plugin that just brings up Netflix in episodes view mode for TV series? For example, if you click on a TV show saved in my-list, it would launch Netflix in kiosk mode with the TV show's episodes shown ( by using the URL http://www.netflix.com/title/<show id>). Of course, this would require a mouse to actually select an episode for viewing since the Netflix website doesn't support keyboard based navigation. I could also give the option to automatically launch the next unwatched episode (http://www.netflix.com/watch/<show id>). So, clicking on a show saved in my-list would bring up a different sub-menu:
Watch Next Episode
Select Episode to watch
I'm probably going to make this change so if there's any interest I'll also post a copy of default.py here.

Here's the version that launches Netflix in episodes view when you click on a show from any TV menu:
http://pastebin.com/JPQFdq1T
It actually works fairly well given that you need to use a mouse to navigate.... To help out here, windows7 users might want to check out apptui which adds mouse and netflix specific capabilities to iphone/android devices, giving them the ability to act as a mouse enabled remote control for your windows server running Kodi.
edit. Actually, apptui is pretty cool. It automatically switches to a Kodi specific remote when it connects then to a Netflix specific remote (with mouse capabilities) when chrome launches. I really like this and it (appears to be) completely free. I'm wondering what the catch is...

Not sure if this has been mentioned or if this is even useful but Netflix Roulette has an api here: http://netflixroulette.net/api/

I'm actually thinking of doing something similar to this for a medium term / alternate solution to the addons's issues, but also integrating keyboard control of the entire netflix interface.
I've done some work on this in the past, and have since found this project - which is currently also a bit broken but can be taken as inspiration to add controls. https://github.com/cheald/NetflixNavigator/
Some people may prefer to use netflix's interface over kodi's for browsing if their remote was going to work :-)

Yeah a couple of us did quite a bit of investigation a good few pages back on various third party sites with usable api's. roulette does not provide anything that gives us a menu structure, so isn't going to help with browsing netflix. Ideally we still want to use the real netflix site/private api's for this to give people their personalized shows/results.
Roulette could be useful for the final step of getting show details however, once we have a display/menu/structure from netflix, it's probably a more stable api than scraping the private json/javascript api's and/or html from netflix's site for those details.
RE: [RELEASE] NetfliXBMC - Unofficial Netflix Add-on (Win/OSX/Linux) - Thread 2 - Sleuth255 - 2015-10-26
FYI, I'm currently working with apptui to get a close chrome browser capability into the netflix specific remote. Once I have that then it'll be a great remote for kodi/netflixbmc. Obviously some sort of chrome extension that can orchestrate Kodi remote button actions onto the "mouse only" netflix web gui would be ideal here but that could take a while. I wonder if we could successfully mount a campaign to get netflix to add keyboard navigation to the web gui instead. I'm not sure why they don't have this already since a mouse-only gui discriminates against disabled individuals who are trying to use netflix. Besides, I'd much prefer something official that wouldn't break.
