As well as streaming things like Spotify<\/a> and video games, you can also stream Netflix through Discord to let people watch along with you, this can be great for watching party events or probably with your friend\/partner that’s in another location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start, you\u2019ll need an existing Netflix account in order to have access to Netflix content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can either stream directly from the Netflix site or download the Netflix app<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Stream from the Netflix App<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Once you\u2019ve downloaded the Netflix app, sign in with your account information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Back on the Discord app, you\u2019ll need to join a Voice Channel in a Server you are in. Once you do, you\u2019ll see two options appear: turn on your camera or share your screen. Select \u201cShare your screen<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"How<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In the window that opens, you\u2019ll see an \u201cApplications<\/strong>\u201d tab and a \u201cScreens<\/strong>\u201d tab. Make sure you\u2019re viewing the \u201cApplications<\/strong>\u201d tab and select \u201cNetflix<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"How<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In the next window, you can choose your stream resolution and frame rate, as well as your chosen app and Channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"How<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

When you\u2019re ready to begin streaming, click on \u201cGo Live<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Stream from the Netflix Site<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Streaming from the Netflix Site is largely the same as streaming from the app, except the source of the stream will need to be different. Follow the same steps of signing into Netflix, joining a Server Voice Channel, and sharing your screen as stated above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rather than simply selecting \u201cNetflix<\/strong>\u201d from the \u201cApplications<\/strong>\u201d list, the option will appear as \u201cNetflix – [Web Browser]<\/strong>\u201d. Alternatively, you can select the \u201cScreens<\/strong>\u201d tab and keep your Netflix set to one screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"How<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A common problem that will happen when people try to stream Netflix is getting stuck with a black screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This can be corrected by turning off hardware acceleration on your web browser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To do this on Google Chrome, click on the ellipsis (…) symbol in the top right corner of the browser and select the \u201cSettings<\/strong>\u201d option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"How<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This should open a new page. On the left-hand side of the screen, you\u2019ll see the \u201cAdvanced<\/strong>\u201d option. Select this option to open a drop-down list and choose the \u201cSystem<\/strong>\u201d option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Uncheck the middle option \u201cUse hardware acceleration when available<\/strong>\u201d in the next window and relaunch Chrome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"How<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

To disable hardware acceleration on Microsoft Edge, click on the ellipsis (…) symbol in the top right corner of the screen and choose the \u201cSettings<\/strong>\u201d option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"How<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Choose the \u201cSystem<\/strong>\u201d option from the options on the left-hand side of the screen and uncheck the option \u201cUse hardware acceleration when available<\/strong>\u201d and relaunch Edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"How<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And that’s how easy it is to watch Netflix with friends, and or other people via Discord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
