Netflix in Media Center does not work anymore
I am running Windows 7 Professional, and until yesterday had zero problems watch netflix via media center on my pc that I use as a HTPC. I don't know what happened, but now I can watch Netflix in Media Center, or with a film from my browser to start. It gives me the same error every time, a code error and said he had problems with signature and try closing and restarting the program. However, he has no problem logging into my account and see my queue of the movies that he simply doesn't play anymore. I tried to come back to Silverlight version 3 based on somehing I read elsewhere, but also reinstalled all the dependencies for Netflix and Internet TV in Media Center with no luck. In addition, I did a system restore on the eve of problems, left with no luck. Netflix said that this is a known Microsoft issue and they can't help with it? I have confirmed that I can not connect and watch netflix on any other computer in my house is not my account network or netflix, only this HTPC. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi James,
Welcome to Microsoft Community where you can find all the answers related to Windows.
According to the description, it looks that you are not able to install Windows XP Media Center.
I have a couple of steps that should help you to solve this problem.
Follow these 4 steps to install the KB925766 correctly:
a. if the 886904 update is installed, you must uninstall the 886904 update before you install the Update Rollup 2 for Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005. Otherwise, the installation of .NET Framework 1.1 SP1 will fail.
To determine whether the 886904 update is installed, follow these steps:
i. click on start, run, type appwiz.cpl, and then click OK.
II. Click to select the show updates check box.
III. in the list currently installed programs, locate the following item:Fix for Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 (KB886904)
If you see this option, you must remove the hotfix. To remove the patch, click on the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 (KB886904) Hotfix and then click on remove. Then, visit the Windows Update Web sit to download and install the Update Rollup 2 for Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005.
b. to install this update, you must have Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 and .NET Framework 1.1 SP1 installed. Windows Update detects whether these packages are installed. Windows Update automatically installs these packages for you.
(i) follow the link below to download the .net framework 1.1 manually:

Re-installed Windows XP Media Center Edition and now I can't turn it on with my product key.
I REINSTALL XP MEDIA CENTER EDITION
AND I GOT A FEW SCRACHES ON DISK. SO I REPAIRED THE INSTALLATION WITH XP PRO. NOW I CAN'T ACTIVATE WINDOWS TO ALL THE... WHAT CAN I DO TO FIX THIS?
original title: REINSTALLED XP MEDIA CENTER EDITION, HAD A GLITCH AND USED XP PRO FOR INSTALLATION of REPAIR, NOW I can NOT turn ON WINDOWS
Upgrade installing XP Pro Media Center of in the Windows environment. Just start the installation of XP Pro computer and then insert your Media Center CD in the CD-ROM drive and upgrade the installation, provide the Media Center product key when you are prompted. If this fails, you will need to install from a flat folder, post again if the upgrade fails and we can give you the flat installation instructions.

Original title: why is Netflix in Windows Media Center does not connect to the internet?
I watched movies on Netflix via Media Center before and I've never had any problems. However, I did use the Netflix on Media Center app for a while. Whenever I try to open Netflix in Media Center the bed error statement there was a signature issue. Check the works of your internet connection and try again. This product even when I'm connected to the internet, can surf the web, download music on iTunes, etc. What is happening and how to fix it?
Tried to access Netflix today and I found to work again on my Vista 64 Media Center. Anyone who is on this thread should see if them is work and response back.

Movie from Netflix in Media Center
I have windows vista media center home premium 64-bit version. I was able to watch movies through the center of media until recently. It automatically pulls up to my account, etc. in queue, but when I click on a movie to play it takes me to a login screen. I try to re-login, but it goes just to the same screen and will not play. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but to no avail... same problem. I even uninstalled and reinstalled silver light, but it doesn't work anymore. If anyone has had this problem and have they been able to solve it? I can watch them via Explorer very well, but I want to be able to use media center. Help, please!

Under Win 7 Pro and IE 11 2 machines & Win 7 Pro 64-bit & IE 11 on a single machine. Same thing happens on all 3 machines.
When I connect to Netflix in Media Center and try to search, I get the following error message. "There is a problem with the application at this time. Try again

If I use 11 IE or Chrome, everything works fine. Does anyone else have this problem? I can also click on something that I have already watched and which works very well also.

context: a previous thread with an identical title never responded, the problem just disappeared. Well its been two weeks since then and the problem came back.
somethings which may or may not apply: internet TV seems to work better in media center. All updates have been applied to H.P. of Vista SP2. Netflix works fine in ie8 (such as the internet, of course). Tried to delete all the Internet Options, delete browsing history section of Internet Explorer. I get the same error message with my windows 7 professional media center, but netflix seems to play anyway (no game with vista). I recently installed quicktime alternative 2.72 to see what it was and how it worked, then removed and put back in quicktime.
Tried / symptoms:
-Remove all the browsing history (econcepts)
-Same message on Win7pro but works even when (econcepts)
-Works on Win7 no problem (omegafiler)
-Works in ie 8 (econcepts)
-Works in crome (Martin TX)
-Consensus is that it started around December 30, 2009 (GeoffG1, johnetX, me)
-Remove and reinstall silverlight (omegafiler)
-Remove and replace netflix plugin (omegafiler)<- how="" did="" you="" do="" that="">->
-Netflix says: microsoft problem (Nitestalker)
-Microsoft is silent (this thread - on vacation?)
-Same problem on 32-bit and 64-bit VMC (JRSMiamiFL)
-No applied update (johnetx)<- perhaps="" date="" related="" or="" drm="" date="">->
-Disconnect from netflix, you reconnect again - ultimately the same error (chicagokiwi)
-Tried to reduce the number of items in the queues to well below the limit of 200 (econcepts)
-Tried the register / unregister the third wire procedure, no joy (does not break anything else however)
-Disabled the firewall, no change (econcepts)related topics:
http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/vistaprograms/thread/0c154c0a-1fcb-4353-8c5e-b394e885256dSomeone else knows Netflix not being is not able to connect? It started yesterday (30/12/2009) for me. I looked fine the day before without problem. The message I get says "there was a problem of data recovery. Check the works of your internet connection and try again. Ok. I make it work with both my VMC - one with the service pack and the other without. My OS updates have been loaded in early December, so I don't see how this could it be. I searched and found this problem has come up before, but I have not found a solution. I made NO changes to my HTPC.
Those who have and solved this problem.
UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE *.
2009-01-05 has attempted to start Netflix this morning and you know, it works on both my VMCs. That's the good news. So now the real questions are:
Only 20 people reported it as a problem and only 6 on the green button. I believe that it affected all the world with Media Center. So why not discussed much?
It already happened, causes a stir and silently slips without known cause or cure. How can we find out what caused this and how to prevent it from happening again in the future?
