Ok, I will try that. I haven't had time to program my remote to work with Netflixbmc or xbmc for that matter, but will give it a shot this weekend.

Thanks.

Hi, I've almost got this working on Linux Mint 16. The issue I have is that after selecting a tv show/ movie etc. the item loads, and I can drag the progress bar and the correct frame will show, however I can't get the movie to play? I'm sure it's something stupid I'm doing as have not seen the issue here. Any pointers would be great, thanks.

I am getting "Could not connect to remote server" using both Frodo and Gothem Beta 3. I am running the newest OSX. I tried the recommendation above about changing the login URL. The error in the Xbmc logs is the same either way:

Has anyone else had this problem?

Hi,
found time to fix some stuff. Also added webremote support.

v1.2.6:
- Fixed login problem
- Fixed gotham message bug
- Some other small fixes
- Added remote/webcontrol support

On the last pages, some of you had problems with netflix_utility and xbmc.log file. I don't know why it's locked. It does not access it.
To solve it, exit the browser via the mapped key instead of just using ALT+F4 (else the utility keeps running).

Some also still had problems with dns/vpn. Have you tried the "locale" thing?

Has anyone else had this problem?

Looks like you have problems with ssl. Are you using a proxy? If so, it must support ssl.

To all other users:
If your problem is still present, just repost it (with detailed infos please). If i find enough time, i'll try to help...

Webremote:
The webremote stuff must be activated via the addon settings. Under linux, you need to have xdotool installed. Under OSX, you'll need cliclick.
For now, the controls are not mappable. Here is a list of all current implemented controls:

Code:

Play/Pause : ACTION_SELECT_ITEM
Seek backward : ACTION_MOVE_LEFT
Seek forward : ACTION_MOVE_RIGHT
Volume Up : ACTION_MOVE_UP
Volume Down : ACTION_MOVE_DOWN
Close Browser: ACTION_SHOW_INFO | ACTION_SHOW_GUI | ACTION_STOP | ACTION_PARENT_DIR | ACTION_PREVIOUS_MENU | KEY_BUTTON_BACK

For me, only some action IDs worked to close the browser. You can view all available actions IDs here. Also try some other IDs yourself manually. Maybe i'll add some mapping solutions later.
If you have the webremote thing enabled, but you exit via the normal remote, you'll have to hit any key before you are able to control xbmc again...

Greetings,
asde

What is Webremote?

That's a pipelight issue. I've got the same atm, if I find a fix, I'll let you know.

I had a similar problem with pipelight-flash. Un- embedding the video so its in its own window fixed this(right click on video window). I have now edified the pipelight config file so every video is not embedded in the webpage.

Anyone able to watch anything with WASAPI sound setting?

[garydebergerac]

I had the login error and applied that fix and then started getting script failed errors. This was yesterday so I don't remember what other fix I applied (line 63 or something?), but no change. First time ever messing with Windows 8, good god what a mess. I'm also logging in via a DNS, in case that makes any difference.

I am using a proxy, adfreetime. I am not sure if it supports SSL but will look into it. I will also test with this newer version and without using the proxy and report back with the progress.

Thanks!

hmm, I just noticed in the log that there is an unindent error on 474, which I unfortunately don't know how to fix. I use Notepad++, and just did a select-copy to overwrite, and would have thought that carriage returns or whatever would have stayed the same. Any ideas?

Nope. With WASAPI on I get error code N8157-3142
Works with direct sound fine.

I just checked, and I don't have a locale folder.

WASAPI works but you have to turn off "Keep Audio Device Alive" under Audio settings. Had that issue also until I turned that off.

Good catch thx!
