Uncaught TypeError: window.netflix.cadmium.objects.videoPlayer is not a function about netflixpro HOT 11 CLOSED

I actually developed a little (very barebones and non optimized) library that controls the netflix player.

Let me know how it goes!! Hit me up with any suggestions or questions :D

Thanks, looks like Netflix changed some of their code and are no longer exposing that object. Looking into it!

Just wondering if there was any update here? Thanks!

Another way of rewinding is pausing the video and then using the arrow keys which allows you to rewind/fast forward by 10 seconds at a time.

Any luck with this? I had a quick look at the netflix javascript code, but didn't see how to get to the object yet. (BTW, Your blog about writing the extension was interesting to read, thanks for that.)

I've been trying to find a way around this as well. Grabbing the HTML5 video element and trying to manually change the currentTime appears to break the player. netflix.cadmium.objects exists but no longer has a videoPlayer reference there. I'm wading through minified source files but may just have to give up on this soon. Hopfeully someone else will figure out a new way to seek the Netflix player with JS.

Hey @JohnCoates any plans to update this extension?

I put my latest thoughts on controlling netflix here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27927950/controlling-netflix-html5-playback-with-tampermonkey-javascript/39703888#39703888 FWIW

Thanks @rdp.

@avrahamgoldman: I'm accepting pull requests that bring functionality back. Development is stalled because Netflix has made it nearly impossible to get access to their internal controls.

If there's a way to get access to that Netflix object that would be great. The object gets created with no global reference to it, so I'm not sure how to grab it without modifying their code, which would be a fragile solution.

Looks really nice! I might have a go at updating this extension to use your library
