Notice for the use of auto-update and auto-sync with Netflix "My List" feature

AN INTENSIVE USE OF THIS FEATURES due to many exported tv shows MAY CAUSE A TEMPORARY BAN OF THE ACCOUNT that varies starting from 24/48 hours. Use at your own risk.

If it happens often, there is the possibility to exclude the auto update from the tv shows, by open context menu on a tv show and selecting Exclude from auto update.

Something doesn't work

Before open an issue please try read the Wiki pages or ask for help in the Kodi forum

If something doesn't work for you:

Open add-on settings, go to in Expert page and change Debug logging level to Verbose
Enable the Debug log in your Kodi settings
Perform the actions that cause the error, so they are written in the log
Open a new github issue (of type Problem report) by following the instructions in the report

We can't help you if you don't provide detailed information (i.e. explanation and full debug log) on your issue. Please also use a service like pastebin or better Kodi paste to provide logs and refrain from uploading them to where they'll be hidden behind an ad-wall or any other sketchy services.

When the problem will be solved, remember to disable the debug logging, to avoid unnecessary slowing down in your device.
