RAS 0.9.5.6 & Win10 - Netflix loads but refuses to play unless RAS disabled #553

I was surprised not to see a Netflix issue of some kind on your site already. I have a new laptop running windows 10; fresh install of RAS from Github; fresh install of FF 52 that was just upgraded to 53. My only other add-on is Ublock origin 1.12.1. I keep RAS screwed on tight (almost all boxes checked); and almost all of my frequent/favorite sites run fine (some need a specific strategic box un-checking). Netflix will load and let me log in; but refuses to show anything beyond the post log in page (even show lists) without RAS being disabled. I tried white-listing the site {"url":"netflix.com"}; and running RAS with everything completly turned down and/or uncheck and no go. I've disabled Ublock and changed other settings to make sure its RAS specific and it appears to be. Any idea what I might be missing or how to get it up and running? A great program, thanks for sharing, let me know if I can provide any more information, and thanks for the help.

P.S. suggested feature: when you disable and then re-enable RAS; it come back with everything unchecked and "open". Is there a way to store defaulted settings, so you dont lose your checks etc.

Just amongst the myriad of counter measures used to prevent anonymising techniques to combat the P2P ideology. Netflix are basically a coorperation formed primarily because of P2P, and essentially use the same methods of distribution, yet, and partially respectfully, they pay royalties.

I haven't had any experience with Netflix whatsoever as I don't want to, however, what I could suggest is attempting to use relatively newer profiles. Firefox 44+ etc.
