That is so stupid. A shift key would suffice. Thanks for the info!! Sheesh.

Was just going to ask the same question. Power went out and we couldn't get back onto Netflix. Working now ... Thanks

It depends on your definition of "work". Navigation using arrow key and enter will work. but individual apps (Netflix, youtube, Pandora) do not recognize the keyboard.

Hey. I replied to your post in the other thread but I'll write you here in case you don't see it. You have to go into Options and then press Initialize (to reset the system to factory settings). This gets rid of the bug. It showed up on an older firmware and seems to stay around until you do this. I have heard that it also works if you click 'Deactivate Netflix' and then re-activate it, but it's better to be safe by resetting the unit to the factory settings in case there were some other bugs that could be removed to. Hell, you might as well do both just to be really sure. Deactivate Netflix, and then Initialize Settings. Hey.

I'm unfamiliar with the "learning" function. With this remote, you have to open it up and set the eight switches to match the eight switches in your other opener(s). To open it up, remove the small screw in the back of the Ladybug remote and pry it open. You'll see a row of white switches numbered one to eight. Open up one of your working remotes and note how its eight switches are set. Each of the eight switches can either be set either up (on) or down (off). Match the eight positions of the new remote with the old one and you're good to go. If your current remote doesn't have the eight switches then I guess you have to return this Ladybug remote.

The remote works fine, but there is an inherent hesitation for everything you do. It works great on Blu-ray, but I noticed that when I am using Netflix, sometimes the machine just hangs-up and stops working altogether, and I have to basically "reboot" it by turning it off and then back on. It has it's hicups, but for the money I guess it isn't too bad a machine. It is just a little aggravating sometimes. But if you buy one and have trouble with it, I discovered a trick to get it to update correctly. This takes care of most of the problems these machines have (I have 3 of them). If you buy one send me another message through Amazon and I will help you with it if you want. The remote works fine, but there is an inherent hesitation for everything you do.

Kate, It would be helpful to know which account you are talking about - Amazon? Hulu? Netflix? I'll assume you're using Netflix. When your Roku was first connected to your TV, someone had to enter your password information in order to connect to and use Netflix. I'm guessing someone else did this for you. This information is now stored in the Roku and you are automatically connected to your Netflix account when you turn on the Roku and click on the Netflix icon. Unfortunately, anyone who knows your password can go to the Netflix site on the internet, log on with your information, and watch instant streaming on their own PC, laptop, Roku, or whatever, anywhere at any time. Those "two videos playing simultaneously" on your account means that there are most certainly other people using your Netflix account. I suggest you speak to whoever helped you set up your Roku, or anyone else who has access to your password. If you are paying for the Netflix account, you have the option to contact Netflix and ask them to help you set up a new account with new password info. Perhaps you can even get them to walk you through entering the new information into your Roku, if you need help with that. Good luck, Kate. Sincerely, Kathy

Hi, I have the sony bdp-bx57. I have it all set up and it works great except for my netflix. When I go to netflix all I get is what is in my instant Que, other people tell me that they can search for the movies they want by category or title search or favorites or how ever they want. What do I need to do so I can see more than just what is in my instant Que. Any help will be appreciated, Rick

Thank you for posting, of course. But I don't put a whole lot of stock in that transcript. Since the PS3 has Netflix Streaming using the BD-Live technology provided also on the S560, I tried using the PS3 Instant Streaming disc. It *almost* worked. Apparently, the S560 does not have a date/time setting, which is required by the Netflix DRM algorithm. After much testing, I believe that is the only stumbling block to getting Netflix Streaming to work on the S560.So, yes, the S560 as is does not support Netflix Streaming, but those of you who think it can't, may not realize how easy it would be to make it so.

You would have to buy a stick for each TV. And the stick works with only a few types of TVs. Buy box-type of Roku instead. You can stream Netflix into your Roku! It's wonderful! The Roku has its own remote. We LOVE it! And, it's easy to set up. I did both of my TVs myself.

Thank you, Phil. I read somewhere on the discussions that a user had downloaded firmware that locked up his machine and the company said that there was really no fix for it yet so he was stuck with a machine that no longer worked. I have another question. My computer is upstairs and my bigscreen with Bose sound, etc. is downstairs in the family room. How do I go about running netflix streaming movies. Do I need anything downstairs or does the signal come in from netflix into a Gateway at my house and they are already connected. I am so out of touch anymore. It is hard to believe that I used to be the district technology cooridinator for our community grade school district. DUH Thank you, Phil.

Check the setup to make sure you have internet connection. If so go to PREMIUM icon, click on NETFLIX and login. I am an AMAZON PRIME user and have great success with their services. I am able to load NETFLIX to point of logging in or starting New 30 day trial.

Hate to tell you this Jim, but if you look up the manual on line it will tell you it is not programmable. My guess it only works if you have a Panasonic TV. If it works with any other TV you just got lucky. We have a Samsung and we have to use our Samsun remote to control the volume. I was just happy we could get a factory replacement to watch Netflix through it. Hope this helps

Log in to your netflix account on your computer using the url it provides and it will generate a unique code. There is not a universal code.

There are 2 Roku codes that can be programmed. You are using the wrong one. Program the other one. How do i know? I did the exact same thing. If the Return key (Go back key) works... then that should be the right code.
