Android Netflix app stopped working

[CrazyBob]

Just a heads up for those like myself, running the Netflix app and using Unotelly DNS - don't update your Netflix app (3.7.2). It forces Google DNS lookups, so it just ain't gonna work.

Had to install the previous version of Netflix (3.7.1) for everything to work again:

@CrazyBob: Many thanks for the warning as I was going to install this just now. What android device are you using?

Some users have been reporting improved playback with the new version so was going to test it out. Are you seeing the 1750Mbps bitrate when streaming either of these two test clips on US Netflix, El Fuente 60MP10 or Test Pattern: Downscaling 2997fps 10Min ?

Am using an HTC one mini and then casting to my TV via chromecast. Honestly haven't even looked into quality issues ...I'm just streaming in SD and very happy with the quality. Certainly far better than DSTV SD quality!

Just incase you updated: theres a work around that blocks public dns lookup. Instructions on Unotelly's website

Myne has no issues but my router is configured to reroute Google DNS to UnoTelly DNS

^ this! It router/modem specific but they list most on their website.
More of a short-term "future proof" approach :erm:
