The NetFlix plugin allows you to manage your queue, not use the
on-demand services from NetFlix. As far as I know, there isn't a way on
Linux to view the NetFlix on Demand movie stuff. If there was, I'm sure
that would be a killer feature for Myth.
Unfortunately, I believe that the issue is, once again, DRM and the
custom player you need.
