fekker Wrote:TV Shows - if it isn't showing the episodes, put it in debug (the plugin that is) and post the log for inspection, also try turning on the auto-expand episode option in the plugin settings as it does the episodes different, post results please

I'm getting this too, here's my debug:

def startBrowser(url):
cmd="open -n http://www.netflix.com"
print cmd
os.system(cmd)
Everything opened as usual and it led me to instant queue:all .... ect.
No browser window asking to link to my netflicks account appeared as it did on my mac . The only window that appeared on the atv was the one: AFTER YOU HAVE LINKED XBMCFLICKS IN NETFLIX....and.... CLICK OK AFTER YOU HAVE FINISHED THE LINK IN YOUR BROWSER WI...
After reading your post this morning , i tried XBMCFLICKS one more time before making the current changes and found that it not only let me pull up my own instant queue , but also search the site for specific movies . It still won't load them however.
I'm still puzzled. Thanks again.

I registered just to post this. I figured out how to get it to pop up the auth window on OSX. I changed the path like so to point to firefox.

Code:
def startBrowser(url):
    cmd="open /Applications/Firefox.app '"+url+"'"
    print cmd
    os.system(cmd)

I hope your user name gets this message because this frustrated the crap outta me until I figured this out. I'm not sure if this was solved later on in this post but maybe we can add this "how / what to edit for osx" somewhere.

EDIT: I realized that I didn't say what to edit. Edit iqueue.py with that I showed up there. Then open XBMC go to the xbmcflicks add-on and get to the part where it asks for auth. Once clicked it should open firefox (or whatever browser you specified). Now while trying a bunch of things, I made my XBMC windowed while I did this. That way I was able to see when a browser opened up. That step might not be needed but I found it handy. Good luck!

Here's the fix for tvshows where episodes don't display, i'll get it committed for rev 1.0.16

you can grab it from GIT at the following location (save target as, name is iqueue.py)

how do you stop the movie and return back to xbmc??


- samzstein - 2011-03-21 15:10

If your in fullscreen mode watching netflix Alt+F4 will take u out of full screen. A second Alt+F4 command will then close the video and turn u to XBMC.
