For some time now I have been trying to figure out. How do I get netflix to play thru VLC.
Because I have to admit. All the software I have encountered. VLC is the absolute best!
I would be grateful for this information. Thank You.

Re: VLC-Netflix
Reason being that Netflix uses MS Silverlight protocol and VLC hasn't implemented Silverlight yet. Silverlight is Microsoft's attempt to take over Adobe Flash RTMP.You cannot
I hope VLC start to plan support for Silverlight in the future but seeing as how Silverlight is so bound by DRM protections, I wouldn't be surprised if VLC team decided not to.

Re: VLC-Netflix
DRMs are the issue, indeed.

Different protocols so sadly cant be done. I am pretty sure VLC will add silverlight in some point in the future though.
