Is everyone else able to stream Netflix using recent versions of Orion? I ask because I get the same error message when I actually click to play a show on Netflix regardless of what I do from both a system running Mojave and another running Catalina across multiple versions of Orion trying with all the Compatability Mode stuff on and still I get the same error message: S7701-1003

However, I've tried both from regular and private windows (note I don't even get this error message even when actually in private mode using Mojave's last Safari). I've enabled Compatability Mode and checked that Cookies and JavaScript are enabled and Content Blockers and Intelligent Tracking Protection are off. User Agent is automatically Safari while I access Netflix.

Ideally from either a regular or private window and ideally without having to enable Compatability Mode. However, these requirements aren't that important. I only mention because Safari works this way on the same system.

bebowilson thanks Bebowilson, I assumed I wasn't the only person here who uses Netflix but wanted to confirm. I will spinup my Monterey test installation (and then if necessary create a Sonoma installation) to test further. It would be weird if Netflix didn't like Orion/Mojave/Catalina but was fine with Orion/Sonoma, etc.

dino I thought I also tested on Catalina but it definitely started streamining normally a few minutes ago on my Catalina system with Beta-126.4 and RC-127. Then tested again and got the same error as before with RC-127 on my Mojave system. So must be another Mojave-specific issue.

FYI I tested with the latest RC [Version 0.99.127.3-rc (WebKit 619.1.1)] on Mojave and still can't stream Netflix with Orion on that system. A fix for this issue wasn't mentioned in the Release Notes but I tested just in case.

This and the unbounded memory consumption when streaming that other site ( -unusual-memory-usage-during-video-streaming-with-latest-rc-mojave) are the two issues that keep me from removing Safari from the Dock on that system...

So, my daughter who is on the family plan, and lives with me, is away at college so her tv shows up in a different HOUSE, so it WILL NOT SHOW! SO, I pay for Ultra I asked for an extra member account and WAS GOING TO PAY EXTRA because NETFLIX thinks my daughter who goes to college has to have her own account on top of all other college costs. The T-Mobile who i pay over $150 a month already has told me that the service I pay for, THEY CAN'T PROVIDE! AND that I need to get my daughter a SEPERATE ACCOUNT (more money) ON TOP OF THE PLAN I PAY FOR ALREADY! And yes I have screenshots

My daughter lives in my house when she is not at college! I also offered to buy the extra member account for her. TMobile says NO, they say that even though I pay for Ultra and 2 extra Member accounts I can not use them. That is all they say NO REASON, just cant use.

Netflix changed the rules to prevent password sharing outside of the primary residence. This is not something that only affects our T-Mobile Netflix on Us subscription. It affects all Netflix subscriptions.

One of the Netflix rule changes is that accounts paid by a third party (like T-Mobile) are not eligible for additional members. I have no idea why Netflix made that restriction since it makes our Netflix on Us accounts much less valuable. Maybe Netflix wants to eventually eliminate third party accounts, and this is a first step towards that goal.

i could have sworn there was a way you could have out of household people on your account as well. could have sworn it was something additional you had to pay for. but that was on the customer and not TMO to pay for.

The only workaround I can think of that T-Mobile could use would be to create a new Netflix on Us account for each family member that does not reside at the home location full time. That could get expensive for T-Mobile unless the subscriber pays more for these additional accounts than for the primary Netflix on Us account.

scratch that. found it..and you are correct..the TMO paid for one can not have more additions added. only the normal Netflix account can that is paid for by the customer and not part of a promo/3rd party paid for deal.

The account owner will need to purchase an extra member slot, then invite an extra member to use the extra member slot. The extra member must be activated in the same country where the account owner created their account. Extra members cannot be added to Netflix-included packages or third-party billed accounts.

OK I need you to read the restriction again and think about it, my daughter who LIVES WITH ME WHEN NOT AT SCHOOL, AND WHO IS ON THE FAMILY PLAN. Is at college she did not move she is AT SCHOOL! So, the restriction is BS. Then if T-Mobile cannot provide the service. THEN IT IS ILLEGAL FOR THEM TO TAKE MONEY FOR THAT SERVICE!!! Plain and simple so PLEASE RETHINK before this goes to the AG for your company stealing money for a service they can't provide!

pretty much beating a dead horse here..this is on Netflix to figure out.. no one in here can assist with this. its a location issue between the address on the Netflix account and where youre daughter is trying to watch it..that isnt a TMO deal..

None of the people responding to you work for Tmobile or Netflix . To me a non Tmobile employee it's the different IP address your daughter is using is why she can't access Netflix since it's not your IP.

thinking about it now..if shes paying through TMO for her Netflix and not getting the free one but paying outright, thats where the issue is..if she were paying N directly there woulndt be an issue adding someone on. if Netflix is being paid through a 3rd party (TMO would be said 3rd party or at least more than likely being viewed as such) then they cant add anyone.

Whether you subscribed to Netflix Premium through T-Mobile or directly to Netflix makes no difference. Those 4 devices must be in the same home location. When your daughter is at college and accesses Netflix, Netflix is able to determine that she is not at the home address of the account. Netflix considers this to be illegal password sharing.

If it looks like consumer fraud, then it is consumer fraud. I am urging all affected T-Mobile members to file complaints with the FTC.

Are you wondering, "Why can't I play Netflix on my projector?" It can be frustrating when your projector doesn't cooperate with your streaming plans. In this article, we'll delve into common reasons why you might encounter this issue and provide practical troubleshooting tips and fixes to get your Netflix streaming on your projector back on track. Let's unravel the mysteries behind this problem and find solutions to enhance your viewing experience.

If you're currently facing the issue of "you can't play Netflix on your projector," there's no need to worry. We've got solutions to get you back to enjoying your favorite Netflix shows and movies on the big screen. In this section, we'll explore common problems and provide guidance on how to watch netflix on projector seamlessly.

Netflix uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) technology to prevent unauthorized copying of digital audio and video content. If your projector or HDMI cable does not support HDCP, it will not be able to stream Netflix. You may encounter an error message regarding HDCP compatibility, or you might see a blank screen when you attempt to stream Netflix content.

If you're encountering the issue of why isn't Netflix working on your projector, it may be due to unsupported app or software problems. This is particularly common with older projectors that may not have the capability to support the Netflix app, or when the streaming device connected to the projector is running on outdated software. Symptoms include the Netflix app being unavailable, failing to open, or crashing unexpectedly.

If you're wondering "why can't I connect to Netflix," especially when trying to stream via a projector, it could be due to connectivity problems. A weak or unstable internet connection is often the culprit behind streaming disruptions. Symptoms of such connectivity issues include constant buffering, frequent loading interruptions, or an error message indicating a connection problem.

If you're experiencing the issue where "I can't watch Netflix" on your projector, it could be due to resolution and format incompatibility. This means that your projector may not support the specific resolution or format of the content you're trying to stream from Netflix. Symptoms of this incompatibility include poor image quality or error messages indicating that the format is not supported.

If you find "Chromecast Netflix not working," the issue may stem from device compatibility. It's possible that your streaming device, such as Chromecast, Roku, or Amazon Fire Stick, isn't compatible with your projector, or there may be an issue with the specific HDMI port you are using.
