    Default "Netflix launch error"

    So I downloaded the newest boxee today after the meetup to test the new stuff out. I watched Heroes with Hulu (yay!) and then decided to watch "Beetlejuice" on Netflix. Netflix keeps giving me this error when I try to play the movie.

    However, if I play Beethoven (showed up with search) its runs fine. I did get a message about updating Silverlight. I did the 'update' (downloaded 2.0 and installed) and nothing changed. Any Idea what the error means and why it only pulls on some movies?


    EDIT//
    Also documented here.

    I have had this happen to me when searching netflix movies in Boxee. Sometimes a movie will show up on a search that is not a "watch now" movie. Beetlejuice is not listed as a "watch now" title. Not sure if this is a bug in the plugin or something that Nexflix needs to iron out.
