Good concept and getting better in latest release

I love the concept and it works pretty well on YouTube and for m4v’s. However, it doesn’t for me on:

* Netflix - Some error about my monitor or Airplay. Same error Safari gets. Netflix works on FF and Chrome.
* Amazon Prime - Screen goes black. No video.
* Xfinity OnDemand - Error that cookies are disabled.

I’m hopeful the developer(s) will work through the issues. I did think it was confusing that Fluid Browser (which oddly enough took the name of Fluid App, a product that had a subcomponent call Fluid Browser). I spent twenty minutes to see if they were the same developer. (Nope.) It was also amusing that the help video page on Fluid Browser web site isn’t recognized as a first class video site. You have to manually adjust the screen to view it in float mode.

Promising, worth three bucks, but not that useful for me quite yet. I don’t mind being an early supporter if the developer doesn’t abandon the project too soon.

Update 3/4/16

Netflix and Xfinity OnDemand are now working for me in the latest release. Amazon Prime Video seems to lock the browser up. I love the new ability to choose the User Agent in Fluid>Preferences. It at least gives me a chance of getting the browser to work on finicky sites. Bumping to four stars for the latest release. I’ll go to five when the robustness issues are improved. My test case will be to attempt to play an Amazon Prime movie, then see if the browse back and reload buttons respond when the video play fails. Amazon Prime support is desirable but not mandatory for me, but supporting it is another way to make my test case pass resulting in the five star rating.
