    On two 7MC machines now the Internet TV Beta 2 icon has vanished from the Extra's start menu strip. I hope it comes back! 

    Netflix is working and playing however.

    You need to ensure you have the default Movies strip still visible, just in case you have been tickering with Media Center Studio, as that's where the icon appears.

    Try and run an update from the media center settings it just appeared on mine but I've lost the Internet TV Beta 2 icon, so I gained one and lost the other.

     I've hidden the TV strip which might explain why I couldn't see the icon for Internet TV.

    I haven't done anything to the movie strip, and I've checked it on two PCs.  Neither is activated yet, but I wouldn't imagine that would matter.

    Netflix for 7MC is here & new Internet TV

    Yeah you need to go in to the Media Center settings - General - Automatic Download Options and click on Download Now

     I've just done it again on a 3rd 7MC PC and the Netflix and new Internet TV icons just appeared!

    I'm using the RTM from MSDN btw.

    Internet TV is a brand new application and looks pretty cool!

    OMG Adobe Flash !!!!

    Bugger they have locked it down again.

    Internet TV beta 2 on the RTM use to work without a VPN.

     Damn, I love the interfaces of netflix, and internet tv.  I kind of want to create themes copying these for the rest of media center.
