Got it working here by modifing the Amazon UK version, basically you only have to change the URLs in a Resource file. I have the Resource file attached

I did those steps:
1.) Checkout source code from http://code.google.com/p/mp-onlinevideos2/
2.) Replace SiteUtilProjects/OnlineVideoSites.MrP/Properties/Resources.resx with the one in the attachement
3.) Recompile by starting Build/Build_OV_MP1_Release.bat
This will automatically update the dlls in the mediaportal installation

I could now browse videos and play back with a german account

Things left:
- Figure out how to push this to a separate DLL, so it does not get overwritten by the next updated version
- There is a problem with german Umlauts äöü...they are not properly displayed

    Nice work,
    i tried it and can confirm that it works (y).

    Funny, i tried the same approach some time ago and it did not work then. Maybe i missed something.

    @JSurf I'm not much into coding. I got an svn client and accessed the read-only tree of the link you provided, this generates a copy of the directory on my disk and then I follow your instructions. But I have errors in my log aboput objects not being found and the mpe1-gemerator also fails, so I get no executable addon...can you please help or provide the compiled binary?

    Its important to put the source files under C.\ before starting the build bat.

    Here is my complete installer that got generated. Did some modifications again, so that amazon uk and amazon de could work at the same time as different sites but using the same code, its possible to add a language specific resource file an i'm using the "lang" paramter of the site definition to switch the resources.

    I have put my modifications in github, if a developer of onlinevideos is reading this and wants to have a look:
    https://github.com/JSurf/mediaportal-onlinevideos/tree/instant_de

    After installing the mpe1 you need to add the amazon.de site to programdata\team meadiaportal\mediaportal\OnlineVideoSites.xml

    <Site name="Amazon Prime De" util="WebAutomationSite" agecheck="false" enabled="true" lang="de" player="Browser" lastUpdated="2014-12-04T18:03:12.3835696+01:00">
    <Description>Amazon Prime DE! Requires a user name/password.</Description>
    </Site>

    esc key seems to work to exit.

    While the plugin works on my test PC, Currently i have a problem with my real HTPC which is a slow amd e350. I only get to the movie Details page, but it does not automatically start the playback. Need to figure out what the problem is there

    have some ideas i would like to see, like browsing the watchlist, which would be very useful in my eyes. Will have a look at this and also will contact the developers fo onlinevideos how we get amazon.de in the official release when i got the time

    @Brownard another logs of failed installations. I'll take a look into the user management. Edit: I can confirm user management is completey broken with NET4 and NET6 :( Neither an existing profile can be selected nor a new one can be created.

    Still working on it, although a bit slowly. Only one major thing I need to add: reliably sending keypresses to the webview2 (need that for netflix's skip 15sec. etc) after that it's time for testing

    Good. I am pleased that that is now working for you. :) If you have ever looked at MP debug log files, you may have noticed that apparent errors are not rare, but these are "errors" that do not affect the functioning of the product. (It is not desirable to have these errors in the log file, as it misleads users, testers, and...

    Thanks for the replies. Looks like I'll have to do a bit of work then! Of course the other option is to have a mini PC connected to the TV and use MP2 on that instead of via Kodi. Something for the future perhaps.
