I am having issues with my netflix app on Apple TV (3 Gen). Last night it was working fine but since this morning all I get is "This Title is not available to watch instantly. Please choose another title" On every single video I try to view.

Ive tried restarting / logging in and out / unplugging / refreshing network settings / etc and nothing seems to work. Netflix works on macbook, imac, iphone... it's just having the issue on the Apple TV and, I have no idea how to fix it.

If so my douchie friend from across the pond, you are a shill and you drive to my mothers house every 2 days a reset her unit so she can watch movies. I bought it for her because it was supposed to be simple and I relied on the WD name.

However, yesterday afternoon while I was at work my wife called and told me that the Instant Queue was no longer available. I told her to use the Wii instead and it worked fine. I performed the reset procedure I found here and got it working again.

im having this issue as well now. i wanted to know if everyone here has blu-ray added to their netflix accounts? i just added blu-ray and now im having this issue. looking forward to the firmware update. i have no other complaints except the long startup times when the wdtv starts up. its much longer than the normal wdtv live.

another thing for those of you who are havng probelms reaching the deactivate option within wdtv. make sure you start pushing the arrow sequence once the netflix window opens up and starts to load up the queue. u should see the circular progress indicator when you push the buttons. if it reaches the queue error screen you were too slow.

I've been having this issue for a couple of months, where when I try to save an instant replay, it will just say instant replay: off, even tho it is on, and im using the save keybinds? I poked around on google and to my suprise there were numerous people reporting the same bug, on this forum, reddit etc. Even one user said he had reported this bug 10 times and the issue was still never resolved.

Maybe I can help, I had this same issue and I fixed it by doing a reset in the software. It doesn't uninstall anything, it just resets all your settings if you're willing to do that. After that I set my record settings like this. If you have any questions just ask!

I had tried all these solution just not working , Recording Desktop not even recording a sec and Instant Reply says off even it's enabled , changed all settings , 60 FPS and 30 FPS , enable Virtual Res, and disable it , all these not working and still have the same issue
any updates to Fix it ?

Hey i had this same problem, if you want Instant Replay to work or any other Relive feature you MUST reset the keybinds/shortcuts. After the first Radeon adrenalin update custom keybinds became inactive.

A couple years later... But I found the core reason! If you've tried disabling desktop recording, and changing the audio channel, and still get the "Instant replay off" message, it's because of DRM! Specifically HDPC which blocks recording if you have copyrighted material streaming, like Netflix open. It doesn't even matter if it's playing, even if it's in the background it will block AMD/nvidia etc from recording anything! The GPU manufacturers are apparently legally required to obligate to the standard. (It would be nice if the error messaged indicated this though...)

Made an account just to comment on this.
This was my issue lol had Prime video streaming NFL on the other monitor. Got a slick throwing knife kill in cod and wanted to clip it and Instant Replay was on in settings but would say off when I would try to make clips.

Closed the football game tab and went onto another site to watch it and now I can make clips again.
Didn't have to update, restart, reset, or toggle any settings.

Thanks!

While I know for a fact this can be an issue I think it might be getting false flagged at times which is incredibly frustrating as I'll know when I do it by accident, promptly go close everything then try again to record but still be met with "instant replay: Off" even though it most certainly is not. It leads me to believe that it is either incorrectly at time detecting things or there is another issue going on. Our inability to determine which is rather problematic. I considering this is now been many years it will likely never change which is even more frustrating.

Netflix is posible in Romania and rather easy. I am Romanian and my wife watched a netflix trial and then I was the one responsible making it work :). UnoTelly is one method but there are others, they all have techy names as DNS redirect, VPN, proxy etc, but at the end, it all comes in hidding your current IP address (internet address) from the accounting servers of netflix located in Amazon cloud. If you managed to have this worked out, then congrats, otherwise I can tell you what is the best and cheapest way to do it but I need to know more of your devices that connect to the internet to do that.

there are many ways to bypass the uber netflixs i recently found my best one so far i took my old router a linksys 54g and reflashed the firmware with dd wrt ram and installed a open vpn service which is 5.00 a month and bam every computer in the house plays netflix and the best of all my ruku player works again!!

At last, my collection is complete. Just the other day I received my invite to the beta of Redbox Instant. I was excited. The idea sounds great: it's like Netflix, but you also get four monthly credits at Redbox rental kiosks! Awesome, right? What's that? Verizon has something to do with it? Well, no matter. It's not exclusive to the carrier's handsets, so I'm sure it's nothing to worry about! I'm ready to get my hands all up on this thing.

Note: This is currently an unreleased preview product, and comes with all the requisite disclaimers. I will leave this blanket 'things could get better by the time it's released' caveat here, because repeating it every time I mention something bad would be too cumbersome.

I promise, I will have at least some nice things to say about Redbox Instant during this hands-on, but you will probably not know it if you only read this section because the process to get into the beta is god awful. Not just bad, but broken. If you score an invite and use Chrome, may I recommend you change to Firefox, because I had multiple occasions where entering required info returned errors that were not reported, and the page simply stared at me.

Assuming you don't encounter the bugginess of the sign-up process, however, the design of the invite accounts is unbelievably weird. You must provide your access code each time you log in, and on every device. You cannot use an invite code to give your account access and expect the server to simply remember. I have signed up for hundreds of accounts for things over the years and have never encountered this idea. Whatever. Keep that initial email handy.

Of course, the invite code problem will be moot by the time the service goes public, but the rest of the issues are very worrying. There are only a couple of months left until Redbox Instant is slated to go live and billing seems like an essential service. While it's possible that this will be ironed out in that very short amount of time, there are a lot of things that need fixing and this doesn't give me warm, happy feelings about the potential here.

Once you're in, the quintessential problem of any web service rears its ugly head: "Alright. Now what do I do?" Most of you have probably heard that Redbox Instant is like Netflix, so you'll be looking for movies to watch instantly, right? Well, that's where things immediately become weird. You see, this site isn't just designed to get you to streaming movies. Movies that are available in retail kiosks, as well as streaming movies you can rent for a fee or buy outright (similar to the Play Store model) are all mixed in. When I first logged in, here is what I saw:

That big banner at the top featured three slides, each with two hero images. Of the six total promoted slots, five were movies (one was a collection) and only two were available for streaming. Ted, The Dark Knight Rises, and Pitch Perfect were all promoted, but only available online if I paid extra. This has already resulted in some confusion on the part of users who found their credit card charged to watch movies. For what it's worth, it's impossible to rent a movie without multiple steps that inform you that you will be paying extra money. However, since you are required to include a credit card on your account (so they can charge you a subscription fee when your free trial runs out), it's relatively easy to breeze through it, or for someone else to spend money with the account you left logged in. It's not designed poorly, per se, but given that the subscription option is what everyone is eager to try, this bizarre integration is likely to trip up users.

Discovery isn't that great, but it's not much worse than Netflix. Search, however, is fundamentally broken. Typing in a movie title doesn't return auto completes like just about every other search engine in the world, but that's something I'm prepared to overlook. However, each time you search for a title, you have to specify what category you want: subscription, kiosk, or rent/buy. Ignoring for just a moment that you also "rent" from the vending machines in stores, so it's not terribly clear to the end user that "renting" here means a streaming rental, the fact that the default search results include all options is just plain obnoxious.

If I want specifically to find streaming titles, I can't do that. Let's say I want to see if the new Amazing Spider-Man is available to watch instantly. I'll just type that entire title in the search box and...

I will ignore for just a moment that cover art is appearing multiple times for the same movie. I will also ignore that some of those instances of art for the same title are bizarrely colored differently. I will ignore all of that because they are minor qualms when compared to the lack of one very major feature: any indication of which titles are streaming, which are digital rentals, and which are only in kiosks at a glance. You can hover over each thumbnail to get some info, but even that isn't entirely clear as a red "Watch Now" button will appear for rentals, purchases, and streaming alike. You can't confirm which one it is without manually filtering search results (which, again, you have to do for every damn query), or by going to the title's page itself. As an example, the original Spider-Man movie depicted above is available to "watch now," but only if you pay $10 to buyit.
