Thx Edwin. I have that remote also; neither remote pauses or stops play while in Netflix. Don't see any search icon from the home screen on this mobile app, it shows up after entering a particular category. Baffled.

Hi...I have the same problem. I have a Trongle S2 android box with a remote & a keyboard which is hooked up to my 32" flatscreen. It all works A-1 for using Kodi. It has the Netflix app installed so when I got my account & went on Netflix I found I couldn't get around the site using the remote. I tried everything. I switched it to the onscreen arrow cursor & could use it to an extent, monotonously clicking left, right, up or down, over & over until it was over what I wanted & then clicked on it. There must be a better way! Using the arrow couldn't do everything. I then tried the keyboard that came with the box. Pretty much the same thing. Altho, using the 2 finger slide on the little screen got me places faster. When I used the 2 finger slide for scrolling, it looked like it was scrolling down more than I wanted, making me miss a row of titles, but it was scrolling, (I should be happy, right?) I think it should work with the remote as it had Netflix installed & it works on the other installed apps...but who am I. I can get by using the systems I have figured out but it would be nicer using the remote. When I get tired of it I can always just watch Netflix with my laptop, even tho I'd rather watch on the big screen. If anyone ever finds out how to get the remote going, please post! Have a great New Year everyone :)

If you view the embedded link above you'll see some of the background to this including a workaround using a normal mouse, which works on Droidbox supplied machines so presumably on yours as well.
