This is something I've been trying to figure out for a while now, and I'm pretty sure I've tried anything. But if you try to watch a Netflix video using an embeded ie control, the video only plays when the window is dragged.

Gui Add, ActiveX, w%a_screenwidth% h%a_screenheight% HwndCONTROL  x0 y0 vWB, Shell.Explorer  ; The final parameter is the name of the ActiveX component.
WB.Navigate("http://movies.netflix.com/WiPlayer?movieid=70035994&trkid=4213507&t=Serenity")  ; This is specific to the web browser control.
Gui Show

I've tried redrawing, moving the window, all kinds of stuff but I can figure it out. And I had no problems playing a video in visual basic. So I think it might be a bug.

Anyone? I'd hate to have to re-write the entire program in C# just to get around this bug.

I moved this to the Support forum and deleted your bumps. If it turns out to be a bug, we can go from there.

Thanks. This happens with all silverlight applications, not just Netflix.

have you tried downloading installing and building an embeded web browser with visual studio express does it happen there as well?
if it doesnt perhaps it is a bug otherwise it might be a browser object issue and may not be something that can be fixed with ahk

[octal]

It works perfectly in visual studio. I tried C#.

Then it may indeed be a bug with the implementation. More investigation may be needed might need lexikos to look into it

[octal]

That's what I was thinking. Just let me know if you need anything else.

What's the next step?

i dont have netflix so i cant go any further. one point to investigate would be if your compiling or not
if it does the same thing accross multiple unrelated systems.

Everyone I've had try has had the same issue. And compiling doesn't change anything.
