I'm running Frodo on Ubuntu 13.10. Play back works perfectly I'm definitely excited that this can replace my Advanced Launcher setup.
But:
- Whenever I use ALT-F4 to close out Chrome, it ends up closing out XBMC also. (actually, it closes Chrome, knocks XBMC out of fullscreen, and then closes XBMC)
- Whenever I login to the XBMC session, Netflix doesn't have focus and I can't control it.
I have xdotools installed, but is there some configuration I need to setup?
EDIT: I have solved both issues by adding a custom script to Chrome Launcher that starts Openbox. But, if there is a better solution, please don't hestitate to let me know.

I'm unable to get any keyboard shortcuts to work in the chrome browser (apart from exiting back to XBMC). Do these only work on the US site (I am using Netflix UK). Have any other UK users got the keyboard shortcuts working? This is the last step for me for total integration
Thanks again for developing such a decent plugin.
1. Click on the screen to focus the Silverlight Player.
2. Use the Contol Utility (Win) / xdotool (Linux) / cliclick (OSX)
See first post! It's all mentioned there...

To use this addon, you don't need any UserAgent extension. It may even cause problems if you have one installed. Instructions are linked in the first post...
