How to use Netflix on your Cox Contour set-top box
Use this article to learn about Netflix features on your Cox Contour set-top box, and how to set up and sign out of your account.
Netflix is available on select Cox Contour set-top boxes, listed below. Netflix streaming features on supported devices include:
Navigation
On most devices, you can browse through rows of TV shows and movies, including a row dedicated to your My List selections. Each row represents a category such as comedies, dramas,
or TV shows that we show you based on what you’ve watched.
Resolution
Most devices can stream Netflix in high definition on fast internet connections and will play Netflix in their maximum supported resolution.
Parental controls
You can set parental controls on individual profiles.
Subtitles & alternate audio
Learn how to turn on subtitles, closed captions, and alternate audio (including 5.1 surround sound), which are available on many TV shows and movies. Many devices let you choose the appearance
of subtitles and captions. Some devices display subtitles and captions in their default appearance, or aren't set up to display subtitles.
Silent Sign-In (SSI)
Some Cox set-top boxes support Silent Sign-In, a technology that enables automatic sign in. Netflix customers who are billed through Cox will automatically be signed in to their Netflix
account on their new, additional, or replacement Cox set-top box if that box is SSI-enabled.
