Netflix-desktop - SubCool - 2013-03-12

Netflix-desktop


Hey Everyone. I am posting this, because i am personally tried of searching through hundreds of pages of thread to catch a glimpse of the question that is burning in everyone's minds.
NETFLIX on XBMC

Now- i personally use this app on my ubuntu 12.0x And it works great.
Now the question is- How do we integrate it into XBMC?
I have tried to launch it with the advanced launcher, but haven't had any success. I am not as savvy with Ubuntu as i wish i could be, so i am leaving this to better minds.
I have included the Program and two installation guides. I personally found this with iheartubuntu. I would love to see it work with xbmc. SO-
How about it?

why do i have to edit my fstabHuh -
whats wrong with just doing step 4 and 5?

This is why i created this page- because going pages into that thread.. its still complicated..

Why can't it just be run with advanced launcher or something? - i have run firefox with advanced launcher. -
Having to edit my fstab for a dual purpose system is -- scary.

Nvm- i was referring to

No pain, no gain? It does require the use of WINE because there's no native Linux support so, if you want it, you'll need to make the effort.

Im getting no where with this.. Im getting mad.
What happen to Advanced launcher- why did it go from 1.7.2 to 1.13Huh??
Or is this a joke? 13 is actually 13 not 1.1-3.1
