Problems with Netflix Plugin for Windows Media Center

I'd rather watch Netflix through my windows media center, since I can use a remote control, and I watch on a screen more great all in the comfort of my couch.

It is a huge pain in the rear to have to use the browser Netflix program and must be implemented on the second monitor. So just by using the browser is not a solution.

That being said, I can not play videos. On Windows Media Center, I open the Netflix plugin, log on to the account, access my instant queue, click on a movie, and then click play. It changes the blue background of the screen, and a small circle of spinning that tells it to load upwards. But then he just argued right out to the previous screen... which is description/options of the selected film (read, delete, find others like it).

I tried various films of selections. I tried to disconnect and return signature. Restarted the computer. Even uninstalled and reinstalled the plugin from Netflix, BOTH the Silverlight program. No chance whatsoever.

I contacted Microsoft and they are stumped on this. I was wondering if there is anyone here who had this problem and fixed.

Hmmm well the problem fixed itself somehow.

I tried to play a movie again today, and when I click on play, a windows media center style dialog box appears and asks something in the sense of knowing if I wanted WMC to access my netflix account. I clicked 'Yes', and it has loaded the film. I had not seen this before dialog box...

So I pressed the back button and tried again to see if it was indeed fixed. Yes. I tried again and again with different movies... and it WORKED!

I guess that the problem is not from my system, but rather netflix or something.

    Thanks for posting the question in the Microsoft Community forums.

    According to the description, you need to know more about the Tv tuner and tuner Radio (FM) for Windows Media Center.

    To listen to the FM radio in Media Center, you will need a tuner FM connected to or installed on your computer and an antenna connected to the tuner to receive a signal. FM tuners are very similar to TV tuners in fact, many TV tuner cards have a built in FM tuner.

  • How to select the output device HDMI as audio playback for Windows Media Center device

    Output audio media center units

    Hello

    I'm trying to set up my media center from windows to windows media center of output through a separate audio device audio device by default.

    In this case, I have hdmi output that I want to be the output for windows media center and my realtek analog to be the default for all the rest.

    So my overall question is how I make windows media center requires is not the default audio device.

    Thank you

    Andrew

    Method 1 is useless. Does that change the audio device by default in the system, what the user seeks specifically not to do.

    Method 2 has no effect at all on Media Center.
    The answer seems to be no, Media Center only works with the audio output device by default.

    When I try to open a PDF file with adobe Acrobat reader, windows media center automatically opens. How to prevent this? I just want to open the PDF file with Acrobat reader.

    The solution I think. If you right-click on one of the files and select open the file locations it now combined the file with adobe reader.

    Yes - you simply need to change the associated file (and path) back to Adobe Reader.  (If that's your choice PDF reader.)

    If you did this:

    Press the Windows Logo and R key at the same time to bring up the dialog box RUN.
    Once you have the dialog box up, type in the following command and press OK...

    cmd /k ftype AcroExch.Document

  • Problems adding our HP Media Extender for Windows Media Center

    Hello, we have about 15 HP Media Extenders (MEX) laying around the place, connected to 2 x Win 7 computers laptops and 1 x Vista desktop, all running Windows Media Center.

    Previously, the MEXs all the connected without problems on the computers in the library, but for some reason, they do not want to connect now.  What happened was I uninstalled all MEXs on the Vista computer as they were all saying disabled and did not know how to enable them again, so I thought that all delete and just add.

    But the thing was, I did not add that Vista Media Centre, outside of the Xbox 360.  But I managed to add a bit of MEXs in other media Centres.  I also noticed there is a Media Center W7 which seems to be able to add when the other two cannot.  The error messages I received were: "an error occurred during the configuration of your computer with the Extender" or "Unable to Find Media Extender.

    I'm not under a firewall on all computers, or the other.

    Sorry if I missed any information.  Thank you for your help.

    Hello Robert,.

    Windows Media Center should look at the file's existing database of the same Media Center once you have disabled the feature and he re-enabled.
