I do not know why i am suddenly having this issue but essentially. I have been using Netflix and it has been fine but as of 3 days ago, all of a sudden there is content missing on my netflix when any device is connected to google wifi.

I can tell this is an issue with the wifi because using mobile data brings back the content as it was before. Netflix says that this is likely to be an issue with my ISP who have a vpn on or either if i use wifi extenders, which in this case would be google mesh system, the mesh system is changing my ip address and so netflix is getting confused and not giving me all the content. I contacted Virgin and they do not have any idea and they cannot see any vpns or any changes made to the ip address.

I can only assume its the google wifi. Not really sure what else to do, have factory reset it all and still having the same issues. Any help would be appreciated as i have no idea why this has only suddenly just started happening.

This problem recently surfaced for me on Netflix. When I direct connect my Roku via Ethernet, Netflix works fine. However via WiFi on my iPad, an Android tablet, or an Android phone, Netflix is erratic. Either content will not load, or there is constant buffering. When I use mobile data instead of WiFi, everything works fine. I am using the Nest mesh WiFi system with one satellite pod. Connection speed is 250 Mbps via fiber optic. All other streaming services work fine. Problem is only with Netflix.

Today we will create Google Chrome extensions for manipulating Netflix subtitle styles in real time. You will find information about creating extensions from scratch, some practical advice and general views on extension architecture. If you are not happy with the available Netflix subtitles options or just want to quickly create some extension to make life easier, this article is for you.

Firstly, we have to create the manifest file called manifest.json. This tells the browser about the extension setup, such as the UI files, background scripts and the capabilities the extension might have.

In our case, we need to have access to tabs to find the active tab, execute scripts and send messages between the UI and the extension. We need storage for store extension settings in the browser and declarativeContent for taking action depending on the tab content. The last element *.netflix.com/ allows extension access only to the netflix.com domain.

First we have to setup runtime.onInstalled behaviours, remove any current rules (for example from older versions) and declare function to add new rules. We use Local Storage for the storage settings so we can allocate default settings after the extension is installed.

Firstly we check that changeInfo.status has the status complete. This means that the website on this tab is loaded. Then we get settings from Local Storage and declare which script should be run on the current tab with tabId. Finally, in callback we send the message with settings from the UI to the script.

To create an extension popup menu with form, we create three files: popup.html and popup.css with visual layers and popup.js with logic for communicating between the menu and isolated background.js script.

For Netflix, every time it receives whole subtitle sentences it swaps only the subtitles part of the page DOM. So we have to use an observer function like MutationObserver, which will be triggering our changeSubtitlesStyle function every time when the page DOM has changed. In the callback function we see simple manipulation of styles. The commented lines have information about where you can find proper styles.

As you see, it is easy to start creating some extensions that make life easier. The most important part is to understand Google Chrome Extension divided architecture and communication between components. This subtitles styler is only a simple demo of what you can do with the Chrome Extension API.

Imagine enhancing your viewing experience on platforms like Netflix with the power of extensions. For instance, the popular Netflix Party allows users to watch content together in sync. An extension icon in your toolbar can provide you quick access to control features when streaming Netflix. The idea behind tools like Netflix Extended is to add more functionality directly into the Netflix app through the Netflix extension integrated within Chrome. When browsing the Netflix website, such extensions can assist users in navigating through Netflix categories more efficiently or even discovering hidden Netflix content that they might not come across otherwise.

Netflix released Metaflow as OSS in 2019. Since then, development of Metaflow internallyto Netflix has continued primarily around extensions to better support Netflix'sinfrastructure and provide a more seamless integration with the compute and orchestrationplatforms specific to Netflix. Netflix continues to collaboratively improve Metaflow'sOSS capabilities in collaboration with OuterBounds and,as such, sometimes develops functionality that is not yet fully ready for inclusion inthe community supported Metaflow as interest in the functionality may not be clear orthere is not time in the community to properly integrate and fully test the functionality.

This repository will contain such functionality. While we do our best to ensure thatthe functionality present works, it does not have the same levels of support andbackward compatibility guarantees that Metaflow does. Functionality present inthis package is likely to end up in the main Metaflow package with, potentially,some modification (in which case it will be removed from this package) but that isnot a guarantee. If you find this functionality useful and would like to see it makeit to the main Metaflow package, let us know. Feedback is always welcome!

Version 0.2.0 of this extension is not fully backward compatible with previous versions due towhere packages are cached. If you are using a previous version of the extension, it is recommendedthat you change the CONDA_MAGIC_FILE_V2, CONDA_PACKAGES_DIRNAME and CONDA_ENVS_DIRNAME tonew values to be able to have both versions active at the same time.

You have several configuration options that can be set inmetaflow_extensions/netflix_ext/config/mfextinit_netflixext.py. Due to limitations inthe OSS implementation of decorators such as batch and kubernetes, prior to Metaflow v2.10,you should set these values directly in the mfextinit_netflixext.py configuration file andnot in an external configuration or through environment variables. This limitation isremoved in Metaflow v2.10.

If you set CONDA_PREFERRED_FORMAT to either .tar.bz2 or .conda, for some packages,we will need to transmute them from one format to the other. For example if a packageis available for download as a .tar.bz2 package but you request .conda packages,the system will transmute (convert) the .tar.bz2 package into one that ends in.conda. To do so, you need to have one of the following package installed:

Uninstalling this package will revert the behavior of the conda decorator to the onecurrently present in Metaflow. It is safe to switch back and forth and there shouldbe no conflict between both implementations provided they do not share the samecaching prefix in S3/azure/gs and that you do not use any of the new features.

Your current code with conda decorators will continue working as is. However, at thistime, there is no method to "convert" previously resolved environment to this newimplementation so the first time you run Metaflow with this package, your previouslyresolved environments will be ignored and re-resolved.

Environments listed below are examples that can be resolved using Metaflow. The environmentsgiven here are either in the requirements.txt format or environment.yml format and can,for example, be passed to metaflow environment resolve using the -r or -f optionrespectively. They highlight some of the functionalities present. Note that the sameenvironments can also be specified directly using the @conda or @pip decorators.

The requirements.txt file above will create an environment with the Pip packageffmpeg-python as well as the ffmpeg Conda executable. This is useful to havea pure pip environment (and therefore use the underlying pip ecosystem withoutconda-lock but still have other non Python packages installed.

The above environment.yml shows that it is possible to mix and match pip and condapackages. You can specify packages using "extras" but you cannot, in this form,specify pip packages that come from git repositories or from your local file-system.Pypi packages that are available as wheels or source tar balls are acceptable.

An environment can either be un-resolved or resolved. An un-resolved environment issimply defined by the set of high-level user-requirements that the environment mustsatisfy. Typically, this is a list of Conda and/or Pypi packages and version constraintson them. In our case, we also include the set of channels (Conda) or sources (Pip).A resolved environment contains the concrete list of packages that are to be installedto meet the aforementioned requirements. In a resolved environment, all packages arepinned to a single unique version.

resolving the environment: this is the step needed to go from an un-resolvedenvironment to a fully resolved one. It does not require the downloading of packages(for the most part) nor the creation of an environment.

caching the environment: this is an optional step which stores all the packages aswell as the description of the environment in S3/azure/gs for later retrieval on environmentcreation. During this step, packages may be downloaded (from the web for example) butan environment is still not created.
