1369629 2014-03-07 08:01:00 I *can* watch Netflix (and BBC, Hulu, etc.) on my PC and my android phone/tablet. I just want to be able to get it onto my tv...

Cheers,
Mike. Dont know about TV, BUT on the PC, just tried proxmate.dave.cx

on Iron ( chrome)

Without Promate:
5604

With Proxmate: :thumbs:
5605

Personally If it was required the media center PC thats connected to the TV would work Nice :)

1369630 2014-03-07 11:41:00 No, however in order to pay for netflex, you will need a credit card that has some sort of US address etc....ie: you wont be able to pay for netflix using a NZ credit card....so with a US itunes account which you can purchase US gift vouchers etc, you can then pay for your netflix.....

A bit convoluted I know.....

You can pay with a NZ card.
It costs just under 10$ for the basic 2 device subscription.

Apple TV is nice, just wish it had a proper DLNA client that'd play mkv. :(

1369631 2014-03-07 11:46:00 is #2 required to use netflix on the Apple TV?

Does Apple TV require me to have other Apple devices? The only Apple device we have in the house is my daughter's little ipod thing.

Cheers,
Mike.

Yes, you need an American iTunes account otherwise the Apple TV will be set to NZ.
It is easy to get without a US CC, too but you will need an iPod touch, phone or pad for this.


iDevices are very handy as remotes, too.
Can't speak for Hulu.
