@wjw You seem to be having the same, or similar issues with Online Vids as I have had. It used to work great several years ago, iPlayer, YouTube etc, and I did have it working on Amazon Prime for a short time, but it seemed to stop completely a couple of years back and the WAF factor dropped considerably. even the 'smart' LG TV in the bedroom plays both Amazon Prime and Netflix!

From the general views expressed in the OnlineVideos forum most things seem to work OK with the very latest version - at least, there seem to be quite a lot of satisfied users. I know that most effort is directed into MP2 these days - but I couldn't get Amazon to work on that either. I do wonder whether Amazon charge a fee to TV manufacturers for access rights.

@wjw Amazon seemed to start working fine when I just upgraded to latest versions of Online Videos. I could access the TV shows but when it came to play, an animated screen came up for a few seconds, and then it reverted back to the MP GUI. From the logs I've looked at, I'm having codec/rendering issues. I've posted a new thread up in the relevant forum section to see where I'm going wrong.

Ahh it seems to be working fine, just takes a long time for the data to be imported.
With XMLTV showing zero programs imported and the guide empty I assumed it wasn't working

Happy Days!

Interesting. I just tried again and didn't even get as far as I did last time! Also, according to the OnlineVideos thread OnlineVideos 2.3.1.0 [2017/05/15] Amazon is working! I await your result with great interest.

@FR

Glad you got a result. Next step is to master TVWishlist!
