Which systems can handle a smooth HD experience with this Add-on? I have an old Atom 330 where it's a definite no-go, with crazy choppy video. I was considering upgrading anyway and was thinking about the Intel NUC line, specifically the D34010. Would this work? I assume the app is purely run by the CPU due to Chrome/Silverlight? Is there any way to use HW decoding?

The new hierarchy is better than Netflix's own all mix up, in my opinion.
So far "Genres" , in the Movies section is working. I also tried the TV Shows section and found a problem:
When viewing "All shows" the Next Page always comes back to the same page. Since only 50 TV shows are displayed per page, I believe this is some sort of bug, since there are probably more than 50 TV shows in Netflix.
Also on TV shows "HD only" every next page contains fewer and fewer items, first page 20, second page 15, third page 9, fourth page 6. That's strange.
Still on Frodo 12.3

The language settings in the XML changed worked for VPN so thankyou.
However, for some reason my My List I cannot add to. Also the artwork is wrong. For example ALL the different Law & Orders show the same artwork. I have tried clearing the cache and resetting nd even reinstalling and deleting the addon and user addon folder but the mylist stays. Any ideas?
Thanks

I just returned to this plugin after when it was first released and I couldn't get it to work. It seems to works pretty well now on OSX with Chrome (and cclick). Yeah!
I normally use my apple remote for XBMC but when using this plugin I switch to Rowmote on my iPhone so I can control Netflix. The one issue I have is when I quit Chrome with Rowmote it "sort of" returns to XBMC, but not fully; meaning that the dock is still visible and Apple Remote clicks don't work. In order to regain function I have to switch to another app (usually Finder) and then back to XBMC. This can all be done on the Rowmote app but takes several additional clicks. I was wondering if there was a cleaner solution available or if anyone had any tips to make a more streamlined transition back to XBMC.
Much thanks to the dev of this plugin for great work! If only we could get a proper Netflix plugin from Netflix itself now that we have binary add ons.
Slightly related question: since there is seemingly a browser requirement to get Netflix to work properly could a plugin integrate a open source web browser like Webkit as a workaround?

has anyone been able to use this in conjunction with the "MCERemote" addon? I cannot get any remote mappings to work. MCERemote will send "ctrl+shit+p" for "play". I have cannot map that in the key mapping program. Anyone had luck with a MCE remote?
