How do I get Netflix set up on my Yamaha RX-3020 receiver?

You cannot have Netflix on any audio receiver which is what this is. The sound from the TV is the only thing that comes into it so you can listen to it through your speakers. I researched all receivers and none have this feature. The main reason is no receiver has a video processing section in it, it's all audio. What I did is to buy a cheap Bluray player which does have Netflix, Hulu, Amazon's Prime and dozens of other on-line movies to watch. I prefer Amazon's Prime, which for an annual subscription provides the same type of movies, but 1,000% better video and audio quality. BTW, you also must have an internet connection to see any of these services, including Netflix plugged into your Bluray player.

Set NETFLEX up on your HD TV (for the video) and send the audio signal from your HD TV to the Yamaha RX-3020 via an optical cable to AUDIO 1 OPTICAL.

I thought I seen a vid on youtube with a guy watching netflix on the unit. On an android phone though. I have an Iphone W/adapter and I cant get netflix to work. I believe it only will work if your videos or movies our downloaded through I tunes. I have a couple of music vids downloaded from I tunes and they play through the head unit.

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.

I'm searching all over the net for an answer to the same question. Just got this receiver yesterday and it works great! I submitted an inquiry with Yamaha Customer Support. Doesn't look like it is supported but I'll post back here when I get a response from them.

I have the Coby 10 inch version and was finally able to get Netflix to work using version 1.5.2. Any newer version the audio and video get out of sync. Here is a link to download the apk file (toward the bottom). They are modified to not ask for newer version. Connect to the USB and copy the file to the download folder. Then just use your APK installler or file manager program to install.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19202722

It's in the software of the machine, should be able, if you have good wifi, to navigate to the netflix app under video. I do not use that part because it was not user friendly and I bought a smart tv.

dma media extender will not currently work with netflix. With the vcmnetflix plugin i cant get video but no audio, this is due to a recent change with netflix using silverlight plugin. I would us the roku, but i hear they have some current problem too

I use my yamaha app on phone or tablet & it feeds wirelessly to the receiver. This device will allow your receiver to get a wireless connection

I have this device and the Logitech revue as well. The problem you mention above was not an issue with either set-top box but with Netflix. I had the same error as well a few days ago but was gone after a few minutes.

I had this problem too, I think you do need the remote. If I remember correctly, I had to go into the post process settings and change them. It may have been another speaker setting tho. I imagine you can order a remote from Yamaha. Great unit btw.

I'm not a Netflix guy, but I believe if you are using your TV to access Netflix via WiFi you need to output the audio to the STR DN850 and select TV as the Input. You can use an Optical Audio Cable to pass the audio signal from your TV to the STR DN850. I do access Pandora from my TV and pass the audio to the STR DN850 and it works for me.Alternatively, if you have another device that can access Netflix (i.e. a Blue Ray Disc player) you could access Netflix via that device and pass the audio/video via HDMI to the DN850 and then the video to the TV. That should work as well.

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.

I have had no problem with my netflix DVD rentals, Blu-ray or SD. I hooked up the Ethernet before using the player. Upon powering up for the first time, the player was connected to the network instantly and began updating with no intervention on my part. I wouldn't be concerned about the method of update. The biggest concern would be that the player recognizes the file and won't allow you to reinstall it. In other words, it will state that "no update is available." My hunch is that the network settings must be manually entered in the player when you connect an Etherrnet cable after the player's 'update" has already been completed. I would try manually setting up the network before redoing the update. If the automatice detection settings work, it 's much easier. Here's how. Power up your 2500. Pull out any disc that may be in it. You will need to get into 2500's Setup menu and then Network setup. The easiest approach, set DHCP to the "On" setting and DNS to "Automatic". If these settings are already chosen, then you will need to get some numbers from your Network software on your computer and manually enter them. If not, go back to the main menu, select "A" and try using netflix. I doubt the player needs to be powered down and restarted. Assuming netflix streaming does not work with the automatic settings - go to your computer. Using your networking software, find the following numbers: IP address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and Primary DNS. You will have to get these numbers and manually enter one or all of them. If you just absolutely can't find the numbers or get them to work, then I would try redoing the update and possibly contacting Samsung for support.

I just got the Yamaha one that goes with this. The only hassle is that you have to configure it with a browser and a ethernet connection on a computer. It works great!

The answer is that it depends.Case 1: Connect STB to Yamaha receiver via HDMI in. Then connect Yamaha receiver to TV via HDMI out (the audio return channel HDMI). No optical cable is necessary for this.Case 2: My Smart TV has a lot of apps like Netflix. If you use these apps, then the video is streamed into the TV and the video signal stays at the TV but the audio signal is not passed via HDMI back to the receiver. Thats's where the optical cable comes in, assuming you want to get sound through your audio setup, not the TV speakers. The optical cable connects from your TV back to the Yamaha receiver (I use AV1). Set the receiver to AV1 in this instance.

Yes. Had the same problem with the BD 390 and Netflix/YouTube. You need to dial the Resolution down to 1080i in order to get sound. I guess Netlix & YouTube don't support 1080p audio.Hope this helps!
