my TV had a burned out board, my experience with trying to get it fixed was Panasonic will do absolutely nothing to support this tv. I am pretty sure that there is not an update and there will not be any update for this televisions apps

Hey, New information!!!!Download the two zip files under BD570 from http://www.lg.com/us/support/product/support-product-profile.jsp?customerModelCode=BD570&initialTab;=drivers&targetPage;=support-product-profileunzip them and put the files from the two files on a usb drive formated for NTFS. You could try doing it with FAT32, mine was NTFS though.Plug it into the USB port on the player and it will ask you if you want to update. It added a channel in Netcast and fixed a common problem with Netflix.

This seems to be an ongoing problem with Sony. My older blu-ray (BDP-N460) had a lot of difficutly streaming NetFlix. And now with this player YouTube is hardly running. Sony tech support claims that it could be that the newer model does not have all of the updates like my older player does.

yes, it has netflix and youtube alread installed. all you do is hit the netflix icon, and enter your email address and password. youtube is a lot easier, you just click on youtube and then click on "pair your phone". it gives you a pairing code and you just go to youtube.com/pair or something like that and enter the code you see on the tv screen. This pairs your phone so you are not having to use the remote to enter the log in info or try to search for things using your remote to try to search by typing in things awkwardly. You then use your phone to search for what you wish to watch. yes, it has netflix and youtube alread installed. all you do is hit the netflix icon, and enter your email address and password. youtube is a lot easier, you just click on youtube and then click on "pair your phone". it gives you a pairing code and you just go to youtube.com/pair or something like that and enter the code you see on the tv screen.

I'm like you, I bought mine back in July strictly for Netflix capability. FWIW, it's been working flawlessly since July on the earlier versions. Its just this latest (1.43) that screwed it up. I even tried installing an earlier working firmware version (1.27) by downloading off their support website where you burn it to a CD, put it in the tray and install directly. The unit comes back and says "Cannot install firmware. The unit has a more current version installed than the disc you are trying to use". So now, we're stuck until the fix comes.

Sorry, I don't use Netflix, so I can't help you. You might try the Sony support website, where you can find the full user guide.

Great question...I just did a firmware update hoping that Netflix streaming would show up...no luck. Seems like it could work if they wanted to.

It works for me (it skips and loses volume but I think that is specific to my player). Assuming you have a network connection (Network menu, connection status), after selecting Netflix it should come up to your sign-in screen. If that does not happen, maybe the sign-in info is bad--possibly left over from previous owner if the unit is refurb (unit I bought was refurb even though listed on web site as new). Have you tried resetting the player? I think there is a reset option on the Other menu.

Make sure to run the update. It was not an original app. I watched prime stuff yesterday.

I dont know, I just browse the player menus and I didn't find any option for netflix, write to tech support asking about it, they answer verry fast.

I have this player and use Netflix. As of 5/4/2014, still no subtitles for Netflix. The 2012 Sony models have subtitles, but those players lose the component video jack tho

Not a Netflix user but I did find this: http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?4388-Netflix-Fix-for-JellyBean-4-2-2-TV-players Of note is the link is now gone. So do a search for Netflix 2.0 version: http://www.tomsguide.com/us/download/Netflix,0301-39879.html Remove the version you are using and try that one. I only used the phone remote app once.

As of right now firmware version 1.51 is available, and netflix appears to be working again. I didn't test anything else, so proceed with caution.

Hey. I replied to your post in the other thread but I'll write you here in case you don't see it. You have to go into Options and then press Initialize (to reset the system to factory settings). This gets rid of the bug. It showed up on an older firmware and seems to stay around until you do this. I have heard that it also works if you click 'Deactivate Netflix' and then re-activate it, but it's better to be safe by resetting the unit to the factory settings in case there were some other bugs that could be removed to. Hell, you might as well do both just to be really sure. Deactivate Netflix, and then Initialize Settings. Hey.

It works, it works! It's so ironic because I called Netflix directly yesterday and they told me they hadn't finished development for this Tab yet. I was honestly considering taking it back. I had Netflix on my Samsung Epic 4G already, but wanted something bigger without dragging my laptop everywhere. I went to the galaxytabforum.net and put "netflix" in the search bar. Scrolled down a bit, and there it was. A link to download the apk for Netflix! Just make sure you have it selected to download non-market apps and there you go :) So happy now!

Ohhhhhhh yes!! I had it upgraded to 3.2.1 and can play Netflix app, but be advised it rarely and randomly have messed up bottom part of movies I was watching on a500 tablet but it cleared when I simply turned tabled upside down and it clears the scramblngs and went on smoothly.

We have the same issue. We turn off the player and re-power. After the re-power Netflix will load the movie. We also found the movie needs to be in the instant queue to play. Good luck
