Build 9926 Anyone else having problems using Netflix on IE11?

[antiochian2010]

So Netflix doesn't play movies for me anymore on IE11.

Troubleshooting led me down a rabbit trail of privacy settings for "enabled protected media playback" in Charms setttings - which of course doesn't exist on 10 (9926)

Downloaded Chrome - same issue. However, in Chrome, all I had to do was follow steps to update the component "widevineCDM" and now I can use Netflix on Chrome..

Why don't you use the Netflix modern app?

I installed 9926 on a tablet today and amongst other things, the Netflix app from the Windows Store. Signed in and had a movie going within a minute.

So, promptly tried it in IE11, and Lo and Behold, got a "Whoops, something went wrong" error with error code H7053-1803. Sent Microsoft a frownie face and a screenshot. It didn't work in Compatibility Mode either. I'll stick with the app, it seems!

Because I like the organization of the web version better. Especially foreign movies. On the web I can select movies from a particular country or region.. In the app all' foreign' movies are lumped in one mass..

Same problem here with error H7053-1803. Has to watch on Netflix App now. It was working fine yesterday before the new patch today.
