Using Netflix on your BT or Plusnet YouView set-top box

Welcome to Netflix on your BT or Plusnet YouView set-top box! Use this article to learn about Netflix features and how to set up and sign out of your account. If you’re unsure if your device supports Netflix, follow the steps on the “Set up Netflix” tab to attempt to locate the Netflix app.

Netflix in Ultra HD

Netflix is available on select BT and Plusnet YouView set-top boxes. Netflix streaming features on supported devices include:

Navigation
On most devices, Netflix lets you browse through rows of TV shows and movies, including a row dedicated to your My List selections. Each row represents a category (Comedies, Dramas, TV shows, etc) that we present to you based on what you’ve watched.

Older devices may not have rows of movie categories, but do allow you to scroll through My List, which you can create using the Netflix website.

Resolution
Most devices are capable of streaming Netflix in high definition on fast internet connections and will play Netflix in their maximum supported resolution (see our Internet Connection Speed recommendations for more information).

Subtitles & Alternate Audio
Learn how to enable subtitles, closed captions, and alternate audio (including 5.1 surround sound), which are available on many movies and TV shows. To check if your device supports 5.1 audio, go to any Netflix Original to see if there is a 5.1 audio option. If not, your device does not support this feature. Many devices will let you customize the appearance of subtitles and captions. Some devices will display subtitles and captions in their default appearance or are not configured to display subtitles.

Parental Controls
Netflix allows you to set parental controls on individual profiles.

Silent Sign-In (SSI)
Some BT set-top boxes support Silent Sign-In, a technology that enables automatic sign in. Netflix customers who are billed through BT will automatically be signed in to their Netflix account on their new, additional, or replacement BT set-top box if that box is SSI-enabled.
