Install Windows XP onto the Virtual Machine.Image File Name: where ever you wish to have it.Click 'New.', to create a new virtual disk.Alternative: You can use VMWare Player as the Virtual machine software.Just think of it as running a really inefficient video player program, instead of a really backwards workaround. But if you have a Win-XP CD lying around its not so bad. Using a virtual machine is a non-ideal solution, but it works. Method 2 version 1: Virtual machine using Virtualbox People have gotten it to work with Virtualbox and VMware.

This how to is by NO means, in ANY way, shape, or form an official or supported way of running the Netflix: Watch Instantly feature natively in GNU/Linux. Netflix does not currently offer support for Linux ( as of Nov 2013), 4.2 Method 4, fully native with HTML5 (no Wine or Silverlight).4.1 Method 3, Native Silverlight through Wine in your Browser.3.1.3.2 Systems that work reasonably well.3.1.3.1 Systems that have choppy playback.3.1.3 Results of systems using this how to.3.1 Method 2 version 1: Virtual machine using Virtualbox.2.1 Ubuntu (and distros based on Ubuntu).Calling Netflix and signing the petition both is the best plan as the numerous times I've called has resulted in the call center person telling me that ".the more people who call and request linux as an option is noted by Netflix". Petition to add Netflix "Watch Now" feature for Linux. Their phone number is 1-86 or you could sign the petition to add Linux support to Netflix. If you don't like it, complain to Netflix, not us. So if Netflix continues to use Silverlight, then there will be no official Linux support. Netflix has stated they will not use anything without DRM. Although there is a Linux alternative to Silverlight called Moonlight, it does not have any DRM built in and it is unlikely Moonlight will implement a DRM option. This is because they use Microsoft Silverlight plugin with DRM.

Until recently there was no simple solution to watching streaming movies via Netflix (Watch Instantly) in Linux for any Linux distros besides Android based computers. See the section below "Running with Wine". However, running Netflix is entirely possible in Ubuntu Linux 12.04 and later releases (and most likely any other modern distribution). The instructions below are legacy instructions for running Silverlight on Linux via Wine.

With Ubuntu 14.04 and Chrome 37 onwards, playing Netflix on Linux natively is now possible thanks to Encrypted Media Extensions and co-operation between Canonical and Netflix.
