Netflix is available on select Comcast Xfinity X1 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 X1 set-top boxes support Silent Sign-In, a technology that enables automatic sign in. Netflix customers who are billed through Comcast/Xfinity will automatically be signed in to their Netflix account on their new, additional, or replacement X1 set-top box if that box is SSI-enabled.
