Thanks
You will need to add a source for the subdirectory of interest in PlayOn (Netflix?). Then MyLibrary will use this source to create .strm files to the videos within that source (it must be done this way because XBMC sees everything in UPNP sources as streams, not videos). These .strm files will point XBMC to open the correct stream from PlayOn and MyLibrary does some magic to get them all in your database. However, every time PlayOn restarts, the UPNP location of things will change, thus if you still want the .strm files to point to the right location you need to rerun MyLibrary which will update the location.
And yes, if you want to use PlayOn for more than 2 weeks you will have to pay for the service.
