Using Oracle VM to run XP so I can watch Netflix. However, the VM doesn't go completely fullscreen, unfortunately. So this just doesn't cut it for watching movies.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Netflix Support For Linux

Feb 24, 2011

Just got off the phone with Netflix support. Apparently they really want everyone to CALL to request Linux support. You don't have to be a current subscriber (though in fairness you should probably at least be open to subscribing). Archaic if you ask me, but I guess that's how they gauge interest.So, if you're interested, give Netflix a ring and say that you want Netflix on Linux. It might help to mention that Amazon's recently released "Prime" video service DOES support Linux already. They have some competition now!

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Boxee - Ability To Add A Netflix App ?

Mar 15, 2011

I just installed Boxee on my freshly built Mythbuntu machine. Being my first experience with an HTPC media center, I am impressed.

That being said, I began to link Netflix, MLB, and other accounts. I was looking for the ability to add a Netflix app, but have yet to find it. I attempted to use the Boxee browser to navigate to Netflix, which I did, but the mouse cursor would not select anything.

Ubuntu :: Netflix Won't Play Through Vbox

Sep 13, 2010

I put vbox on my wife's Dell Inspiron 6000 to play Netflix but the video won't play. After buffering it says there's an "internet connection problem". From what I've read that means the connection is too slow. Netflix works fine on my wired desktop (also Lucid+vbox) and on the same laptop booting into Windows (not VM). So I'm thinking there's a problem with vbox slowing the connection between the laptop's wireless and the VM?

I don't know if it will help with Netflix but 2D video acceleration is grayed out on vbox. Strangely, the 3D acceleration is fine and I can select it. If this is due to an unsupported video driver, can I change it?

Ubuntu :: Netflix On Using Wine And FirefoxPortable?

May 15, 2011

I know how long people have been trying to make this work forever, but I feel I'm a bit close after playing with it for a while. This solution uses Wine, FirefoxPortable (so it's self contained and not relying on registered dll's a lot) and using instructions found at the following link for getting silverlight installed into the portable app: [URL]..

I think it's REALLY close to working. I can open netflix, and hit the play button, at what point it goes through a "please wait while this installs" then finishes, giving me a screen with the netflix streaming controls, and sits at a screen saying "Thanks for installing, once installation is complete please restart your browser to watch this movie." If I restart the browser, it does it again. I think it might be more of a firefox configuration, something to tell it that silverlight is there instead of trying to re-install it. It's registering as an installed plugin but silverlight test sites work albeit very slowly and with mixed results. I'm not having any more luck, but it seemed like a method with promise i haven't seen tried before. Here's a whole package with my experiment, all set [URL]...

Ubuntu :: Since Netflix Streaming Doesn't Work?

Jul 28, 2010

It doesn't appear there is going to be any resolution to the Netflix streaming issue anytime soon.

Does anyone know of anything else out there besides Hulu that offers a service like that which IS Linux-compatible.

It's really nice to be able to stream a movie on your laptop sometimes. Are there any alternatives out there to Netflix streaming for us?

Ubuntu Networking :: Cannot Access Facebook Or Netflix From Computers

Feb 27, 2011

The problem started happening a few days ago. Only my linux computers are affected. Yup, that's right. My roommates running windows have zero problems.

What's the problem? Suddenly, I cannot access 2 websites: namely facebook and netflix. I just get a "waiting for facebook.com" status from my browser, and it waits there patiently until the browser finally gives up. I haven't found any other sites that give me this issue. Gmail, ....., flickr, etc all work fine.

This happens using both firefox and chrome browsers. I've tried using Ubuntu 10.10 (on my desktop) and Peppermint (distro based on ubuntu, runs on my laptop). Both machines access the internet via wifi. Both have the same problem! o_O

Both machines are up-to-date. I've rebooted many times. I've tried booting an old kernel. I haven't installed any new software lately. I've tried disabling all plugins for the browsers. I've tried power-cycling our internet modem. I've tried changing my DNS settings to use Google's Public DNS service. Nothing helps.

Actually, one small piece of information: If I put my browser in incognito mode, I can get to the "sign-in" page for both facebook and netflix. But upon putting in my credentials, I still cannot reach my custom user home page for either site.

Fedora :: Why There's No Linux Netflix Player Support?

Apr 13, 2011

Anybody know why there's no Linux Netflix player support? My suspicion is that this is a copy-protection (or lack thereof) issue or that, like so many others, Netflix is joined at the hip to M.S. and is preventing it.

I've had enough with Windows and decided to try Ubuntu, I'm slowly getting used to it a bit and finding my feet a little but my big problem is: I have an Iphone and I'm only keeping Windows currently as I can't get iTunes to work on Ubuntu. I've looked online for 'how to' vids ect and I have found many things yet none of them tell me in simple terms how to do it. Do I need to run a emulator of a mac os? Run iTunes in Wine?

Ubuntu / Apple :: Where To Get A Mac Emulator?

Nov 16, 2010

Most of the really popular packages (Skype, ooVoo, Dragon Naturally Speaking, etc) are available for Microsoft and Apple platforms but not Linux/Ubuntu. Wine doesn't seem to bring much joy for running these reliably. So my question is - is there a Mac emulator? That would seem a good way to go since apple also use a unix variant and presumably the emulator would be a lot more compatible/reliable?

Mar 3, 2010

I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 on a Dell Inspiron 1501. The other day I installed a super nintendo emulator (ZSNES) to play around, but decided I didn't like it and cannot unistall it.I am an administrator on this machine.

Is there something I'm not doing right? Forgive the newbieness, as always
