I'm about to cancel my Netflix account and I'd like to be able to keep the list of movies in my queue. Is there an easy way to export the list in plain text so I don't have to resort to printing it out?
After failing at the above suggestions several times, I just opened my Netflix RSS, went to File/Save As. it defaulted to .xml and saved it to the desktop. Then I opened it up in Excel. Got a lovely little spreadsheet that was ready to edit, sort, and delete unneeded columns. The entire 375 item queue was available in seconds.
I opened Internet Explorer 9, logged into Netflix, went to my queue, and right clicked the page. There was an option to "Export to Microsoft Excel" which when clicked opens Excel. Copy the address of the Netflix queue you would like to save, paste in Excel "address" bar, and click "Go."Go ahead and click "Import" and wait for Excel to import the data. Once finished, click "OK" on the Import Data window to import into the existing sheet, then delete any unnecessary rows and columns.
Because of the missing rss feature I also had to make use of jQuery. The following snippets run on the "My Activity" page return 3 newline separated lists which can be easily copied into a spreadsheet document. Nothing else than a browser with a javascript console should be needed.
Hope someone can help! There is a movie in my Save List, specifically Glass Onion, which is a Netflix movie. I want to delete that movie from my list, and there is no option to do so. I do understand that Netflix doesn't work with the Save List, which is the problem - the movie must have been in the My Feed queue before it changed over to Save List, and now it's stuck there. Just as you can't add a Netflix movie to your save list, you also, apparently, cannot delete a Netflix movie from the list.
I want to be very clear, before a rep responds, that I absolutely already know how to add and delete movies from my Save List the standard ways, and I do it all the time. However, the option to remove this particular item is just not there. But there must be some kind of recourse or workaround so it doesn't just remain stuck there forever.
So, any words of advice from the community? Anyone else had this issue and resolved it? If a rep can help, that would be great! (I also can't figure out how to contact Roku directly anymore, as used to be available.)
This issue is annoying me so much that I'd happily clear my entire Save List and re-add everything, just to get this one movie to disappear, lol. If that's an option, I also haven't figured out how to do that - how to clear the Save List (hopefully without doing a factory reset, which I'm not sure would even solve the problem).
Otherwise, search Google for "Roku telephone number" and look at the results just below the "People also ask" section. I tried to post one of the links (P***edConsumer.com), but my post got flagged and deleted.
For what it's worth, I managed to chat with a Roku representative, who was not able to help me at all. Like, AT ALL. Kept telling me to sign into Netflix and remove it from that list. Somehow I doubt that would help, because it's a separate list! Not to mention I am not even currently subscribed to Netflix - I don't even think it was in my Netflix queue, and I can't view it anyway, obviously. Regardless, there's another title stuck in my Roku Save list that has nothing to do with Netflix, and it too is stuck there.
OMG, I went in infuriating circles trying to explain this on the chat, and ended up basically being told there's nothing anyone can do about it. Not great, Roku. I'm pretty patient and understanding about most things, but ugh.
So the gist is, if there's a title which found its way onto your Save List in the past, and is currently either a Netflix title or not currently available to stream anywhere (aka "no providers found"), then you cannot delete it. And apparently Roku cannot or will not delete it for you. (Nor can you clear your entire Save List and start from scratch, apparently.) Seems like a system bug that needs to be fixed, and maybe I should report it that way, at least.
Again, that option doesn't exist on my app. I may have a different version of the app, I don't know, but it is not there - there are no dots at all when viewing the list as a whole, instead there's a box to check or uncheck on each title. I'll try to include some photos, to show what I'm seeing on my app:
I am playing with the Netflix API. I am confused on what they want as the 'UserID'. (for a protected query)I am sending in this string (after authentication) to get the User's queue: -public.netflix.com/users/'userID'/queues
Maybe I am not even approaching it from the right angle. Any documentation or code I have found glosses over that part (My netflix ID doesn't work and I assume it should be part of the oauth token I get back, not my normal netflix ID)
But in Netflix's case, the idea to use "queue" didn't come from media or the Internet. Evers told me it was the brainchild of Neil Hunt, the company's chief product officer. His country of origin? England.
Netflix recently published how it built Timestone, a custom high-throughput, low-latency priority queueing system. Netflix built the queuing system using open-source components such as Redis, Apache Kafka, Apache Flink and Elasticsearch. Engineers state that they built Timestone since they could not find an off-the-shelf solution that met all of its requirements.
One of these requirements is the ability to mark some work items as non-parallelizable without requiring any locking or coordination on the consumer side. This requirement means that Timestone should not release some messages for processing until previous items belonging to the same work set are completed first. Timestone introduces the concept of "Exclusive Queues" to support this notion.
Another requirement is that a message can only be assigned to one worker at any given time. It is important since work that tends to happen in Cosmos is resource-intensive and can fan out to thousands of actions, and one of the goals was to reduce resource waste. This requirement rules out eventually consistent solutions and means that Netflix engineers want linearizable consistency at the queue level.
Netflix engineers achieved this requirement by maintaining a message state per message. When a producer enqueues a message, the message is set to the "Pending" or "Invisible" state, depending on the message's optional invisibility timeout. When a consumer dequeues a pending message, it acquires an exclusive lease on that message, and Timestone sets the message in the "Running" state. At this stage, the producer can mark the message as "Completed" or "Canceled". Each message can be dequeued up to a finite number of attempts, after which Timestone moves it to the "Errored" state. The following diagram illustrates all possible state transitions.
The Timestone server exposes a gRPC-based interface. All API operations are queue-scoped. All API operations that modify the state are idempotent. The system of record is a durable Redis cluster. Redis persists each write request to a transaction log before it sends a response back to the server. Inside Redis, a sorted set sorted by priority represents each queue. Messages and queue configurations are stored as hashes.
Almost all of the interactions between Timestone and Redis [...] are codified as Lua scripts. In most of these Lua scripts, we tend to update a number of data structures. Since Redis guarantees that each script is executed atomically, a successful script execution is guaranteed to leave the system in a consistent (in the ACID sense) state.
Timestone captures information about incoming messages and their transition between states in two secondary indexes maintained in Elasticsearch for observability purposes. When the Timtstone server gets a write response from Redis, it converts it into an event sent to a Kafka cluster. Two Flink jobs, one for each type of index Timestone maintains, consume the events from the corresponding Kafka topics and update the indexes in Elasticsearch.
Netflix built Timestone to support the needs of its media encoding platform, Cosmos. Timestone also backs Conductor, Netflix's general-purpose workflow orchestration engine, and it acts as the scheduler for large-scale data pipelines.
With cybersecurity being one of the hottest fields today and a discipline many college students are majoring in, check out these 5 movies for cybersecurity majors that you should consider watching to learn more about the ins-and-outs of cyberthreats and cyberattacks.
Cybersecurity has become one of the hottest fields today with an ever-increasing amount of computer-based hacking and other forms of online threats throughout the world. In turn, higher education has taken notice, and there are many cybersecurity degree programs now being offered to train the professionals who must fill this demand. This includes Saint Leo University's associate's, bachelor's, and master's degree programs in cybersecurity.
To help give a little more context to cybersecurity, students majoring in this curriculum may want to add the following related movies to their Netflix queues.
We all know how ingrained in our lives some online platforms are, including Google, Facebook, and Amazon. However, it's a fact that many users are still completely unaware of why these services are considered "free" and what they actually do with the data they collect on each individual user.
Somewhat ahead of its time in 2013, this documentary explores the hot-button issue of online privacy, specifically examining how both private corporate entities and public government agencies collect and utilize information about users' phone and online activities.
Starring Matthew Broderick, his character is able to hack into a school computer and change his grades in high school. However, he then accesses a military supercomputer and inadvertently sets off what becomes a nuclear threat exercise.
