Netflix not working on xfinity flex
A few weeks ago my Netflix would crash in the middle of watching a show, going back to the main menu screen of the flex box. Now when I try to open Netflix, it opens the app but the screen is completely black. I have had my flex box for over a year now and it has just started having this problem.
I have restarted the flex box, did a system refresh, unplugged it, and nothing seems to be fixing this problem. Netflix is the only app that is not working, as I have been able to stream on other platforms (Hulu, prime video, etc.). The connection is fine from my TV to the flex box, and I am also using an ethernet cord. It is only the Netflix app that I am having this issue with. This issue only occurs with my flex box, as I am able to watch Netflix on my phone or laptop.
A solution would be much appreciated!

Hello @user_e96050, thanks for taking the time to reach out to our Digital Care Team on our Forums page. We're so thankful to have you as a customer and I am sorry to hear about the issues you're experiencing with the Flex box. I love watching Netflix and appreciate being able to access it right from my X1 cable box, so I too would be upset if it stopped working. It's odd that Netflix is the only app that stopped working but my team can certainly assist you with further troubleshooting this on our end. If we are unable to fix it remotely, we may need to send a replacement box.
To best assist you with this, can you please send us a Private Direct Message.

Were you able to fix this? I haven't logged into Netflix on Flex in a while but I'm seeing the same issue of getting a black screen when entering the Netflix app.
