I could not figure out a way to use any of the control buttons in Internet
Explorer. This is because it uses Silverlight, which is not very
accessible. I called Netflix a while back and they verified this and said
they were working on this. They also said if you closed the browser to stop
the movie before it was over, it would remember your place if you started it
up again. For a blind person, the only way to get back to the beginning
would be to continue to the end of the movie and start again!
I have not tried this yetn but I recently heard that Netflix can now ve
streamed to Media Center as well as Internet Explorer. Thhis should allow
the normal Media Center Playback and Volume controls to work on Netflix
movies! Movies streamed to Media Center will also be High Definition. In
Netflix terms, this is 720 pixels high.

Hi
I have successfully watched several movies and TV programs on Net
Flix.
The thing is that to change the volume of the program one raises or lowers
the volume for your web browser. I haven't been able to make any sense of
the buttons in the player. The good news is that if you use alt f4 and
exit
the player during a program, it picks up where you left off the next time
you play it. Rewind, well, I never figured that part out.
I hope this helps.
God bless,
Mark
