Before we dive into how to watch Netflix on your Mac, it's worth noting that AirPlay - a feature provided by Apple that allows you to stream audio and video from an iOS device to an Apple TV or other AirPlay-enabled devices - is no longer supported for use with Netflix due to technical limitations, according to a support page on Netflix's official website.

Using a video recorder to capture Netflix content can be time-consuming and often results in lower-quality output. Additionally, using third-party software like Playcover to run iOS apps on a Mac can be complicated and may not guarantee a smooth experience. If you're looking for the easiest and most effortless way to download Netflix movies on your Mac, Netflix Video Downloader for Mac is second to none.

VidiCable is a versatile streaming video downloader compatible with both Windows and Mac computers. It provides the ability to download any content from Netflix as plain MP4 or MKV files, making it easy to enjoy your favorite shows and movies offline.

In addition to downloading content, VidiCable also doubles as a Netflix player, allowing you to watch your downloaded content within the app itself just as you would on the Windows app. This feature provides a seamless experience and saves you the hassle of having to switch between different media players.
