Does anybody know how to get this? My friends won't tell me. Also, does it cost MS Points or how do you get it...?

As long as we're on movies, is there a way for me to gather up a party of people and have us all watch a movie? Can that be done?

 

 

 

If you all have a netflix subscription then yes I believe it is (Although it may not be implemented yet). You can not do this for DVDs/movies etc. locally, has to be from netflix.

Yeah, is that necessary? I don't think we can make everyone get subscriptions. Can't you just make a party, pop in a DVD in the Xbox, and watch the movie with the party? Netflix, really? Does everyone have to pay?

 

 

 

I tried watching a video on my xbox with a party with my brother in the other room and I couldn't figure out how to get him to watch too. I also thought that is one of the new features.. The way the netflix is setup is by adding your xbox to neflix as a "netflix ready device". So you personally don't need a netflix account in theory you just need to add it to someones netflix account. I'll test my theory out later and add my brothers xbox to my netflix and see if we both can watch a movie in a party.

 

 

 

edit: tried it, didn't work.

How do you suggest that the movie is shared to everyone? Streaming a DVD would be very very hard to do and make it good quality which is why that feature is netflix only.

 

 

 

With netflix it sees you as a group and starts the movie at the same time I'm guessing, seeing as you're getting it from the server and not from each other it can load just fine.

So, how do you add Xboxes to a Netflix account?

 

 

 

What you do from a netflix account is go to "Your Account" then click on "Netflix Ready Device Activation" under billing and movie watching activity. Then it should be pretty easy for someone to figure out from there. On the xbox you do the netflix set up and it gives you an activation code. Once you add it to netflix, its pretty straight forward, it should say XBLIVE and a bunch of numbers. under the list of devices set up to you account. So for me I now have two xbox's listed under the active devices list.

In my defense, Dark, I'm very uneducated with the subject, and that probably should've been stated beforehand. But if Netflix is the only way to do it, then this might not work out.

 

 

 

So, steve, for all the people attending, I have to get their Xbox activation codes? Or is it a Netflix activation code?

Well I tried it out with my brothers account no more then 20mins ago and it didn't work like I thought it would. I honestly though that was one of the features that was suppose to come with NXE update, I'm a little disappointed to be honest.

The feature is there, if everyone in the party has netflix then you can all watch the same video together. I honestly don't see why people thought it would be anything else.

 

 

 

At least you get netflix too, out movie marketplace is rubbish in the UK, we have no TV shows and very few films.

I couldn't get it to work. I have my netflix set up to both mine and my brothers xbox and we couldn't watch a netflix movie together. I guess I'll look more into it then.
