Set (official) Netflix to open on startup?
Is it possible to set MC to open Netflix on startup? I use Media Center for no other purpose. Thanks in advance.

Search Menu Mender.

Ok, I'm able to eliminate the other icons under "TV", but I cannot find a way for Netflix to autostart using Menu Mender.

Sorry, I read that wrong. You can use Menu Mender to set Netflix as the default start tile, I'm not sure how to just start Netflix on its own. I'm not sure that is possible.

If thats the only purpose you use for your HTPC, why not just download a standalone netflix player?

Re: Set (official) Netflix to open on startup?
I did not realize such a thing existed. I am using my personal computer, but WMC displays standard resolution videos on my widescreen monitor much better than playing them fullscreen using the browser player. Would one of these standalone netflix players have the same "fullscreen benefit" on my widescreen monitor?

I don't know the details of the player, only that it exists. http://blog.netflix.com/2008/10/opt-in-for-new-netflix-movie-player.html
