Sky Glass Gen2 Netflix issue

PJH1960 — Mon, 07 Jul 2025 11:24:09 GMT

Strange one this:

I'm pretty new to Sky Glass, and have been getting to grips with the new interface. One feature I particularly like, is the "Playlist" feature. I like it for two reasons:

1) You can create many playlists

2) The playlists can include chamnels outside Sky.

This has worked well, except with Netflix. I can voice search (from the Home screen) for an item, and a list will come up, uncluding results from all the other streaming platforms. Generally, you can click a result, and add to your playlist of choice. However, with Netflix, it just takes me into Netflix, without being able to add it to a playlist first.

I have a Netflix item in a Playlist, so I think it isn't working properly.

Any ideas?

hi @PJH1960

Its been designed this way for ease of use which I agree is not the best solution. The workaround is to search for either a partial part of the name of the show , or an actor / actress that appears in the show. This will then include the netflix show in the search list.

Solved:

When it takes me straight into Netflex, press the red "+" button, and the playlists appear.

This isn't necessary with Prime etc, as you only have to press on the programme, and an option to add it to the playlists is there.
