The Chinese New Year holidays have arrived! Don’t be sad if you can’t go anywhere, because you can relax at home while watching Netflix using a number of hacks.
With a complete range of content, Netflix is indeed one of the most popular streaming services in the world right now. Even so, navigating the Netflix catalog can be very painful. This is because movies have a tendency to occasionally disappear, even in many countries certain content is inaccessible.
1. How to find hidden content categories
Netflix lets you search for content by title, cast, genre and more. If you search for it by movie title and actor name, it’s pretty easy. However, when it comes to genre, a large number of categories and subcategories can be confusing.
To solve the search problem by genre, movie buffs compiled a list of Netflix category codes. The code is attached to a URL that directs users to a collection of shows and movies from related genres and subgenres.
To open a specific collection, just type https://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/#### in the browser's address bar, replacing #### with the code
category. You can see a list of categories here.
2. How to Watch Maya
Because of the pandemic and social limitations of COVID-19, it is difficult to physically gather to watch movies with friends, including during the current Chinese New Year holidays.
You can just connect with Zoom and try watching together while using various other online meeting platforms. But most likely, the relationships each person has are different, so it’s hard to interact.
This remote syncing problem gave rise to the idea of creating Teleparty, which is a free plugin for Google Chrome. With this app, you can watch your favorite movies and TV shows not only on Netflix, but also on Disney +, Hulu, or HBO, as if all members were in the same space. The platform also has a chat feature to discuss it.
One of Teleparty’s obstacles is its inability to let participants share one account, as people do during live encounters. For long distance sessions, everyone needs their own account capable of posting the same broadcast.
Just select the video you want, open the plug -in, use it to create a link, send the link to your friends, and start watching. You can play virtually!
3. Find movie recommendations based on mood
Netflix allows users to create multiple profiles under one account, for example, for family members. This feature is also useful for
people who just want to take full advantage of Netflix's backup system. This is because the service will learn its users ’preferences from viewing history, likes and dislikes, and other interactions with the user interface.
What if you want your recommendations to depend on your mood? For example, on a sunny afternoon, you might be interested in watching the rom-com genre. Without context or access to guess our mood, Netflix can only guess.
You can use your profile to convey a variety of interests. Make a few and use them as playlists like: "romantic movies," "watch with friends," "at the gym," "tear -jerking movies," and so on. Alternatively, you can also set up a separate profile for movies you want to keep secret, and open them only when alone.
4. Find out the latest broadcasts on Netflix
Netflix provides information on the latest broadcast or if the show will air soon, but it’s not easy to find it. So a group of Netflix fans created the What On Netflix site.
Here, the latest news on Netflix is compiled in an eye -friendly manner, and only takes a few clicks for users to find out what the latest shows are, upcoming, and ending episodes. While What On Netflix is a U.S. website, they also publish updates for several other territories.
5. Access content from anywhere
Another Netflix issue is location content. For this one problem, the latest version of Kaspersky VPN Secure Connection tries to be the solution.
The VPN will direct data over encrypted channels through one of hundreds of transit servers located around the world, making Netflix’s catalog for the US and UK available in every corner of the globe. If one transit server suddenly dies, there is always another server to connect to.
Kaspersky VPN Secure Connection also solves other online viewing problems. Some ISPs monitor Netflix video streams and slow them down, forcing the service to slow down transmission speeds, resulting in lower picture quality.
That way, ISPs can save bandwidth, thus making your viewing experience less comfortable. Kaspersky VPN Secure Connection encrypts data so that your ISP cannot detect video streaming, and gives you the appropriate speed and picture quality.
Kaspersky VPN Secure Connection is also very easy to use. The new intuitive user interface keeps users informed of connection status without any hassle. Moreover, unlike many similar services, Kaspersky VPN Secure Connection ensures the claimed connection at incredible speeds, thanks to Hotspot Shield’s advanced infrastructure.
Kaspersky VPN Secure Connection is not just a solution for watching Netflix anywhere in the world, its main purpose is to protect all user data.
Therefore, any connected solution or server does not store a history of websites visited, searches or other actions. At the same time, all traffic is encrypted using a reliable AES-256 algorithm, so that outsiders cannot intercept the information sent or determine your real IP address.
This solution will keep Netflix watching activities safe at home and on public WiFi networks, making it possible to enjoy your favorite movies comfortably. Enjoy the show!
