I know the V6 has had Prime Video a while but I have noticed this: on the TiVo - on demand - box sets - tv players - and there is a functioning Prime Video app...

I always thought you could not access Amazon Prime Video from the TiVo, just from the V6...

Re: Amazon Prime
 

That is what l thought.

There's life in the old Tivo yet. iPlayer never stutters these days either.

Re: Amazon Prime
 

Thought the TIVO went out with the dinosaurs.

Although I can browse using it - I can not get it to work beyond that.

I'll give it a try when I get home later...

Re: Amazon Prime
 

We still have TiVo as our TV is CRT so no HDMI inputs. We have a converter but it's SCART to composite so quality is watchable but not very good.

Re: Amazon Prime
 

Do you mean in a Prime Video app or you just get stuff in the TiVo menus?

I am gonna set up a free month on Prime and see if it works...

Re: Amazon Prime
 

It shouldn't be there. Prime Video is V6 only

As this has been posted over on the Community Forum too I believe it's now been flagged to investigate why it's possible to get to it.

What you should get is an 'you need to upgrade to V6' message instead.

Re: Amazon Prime
 

Don't bother. It doesn't.

Re: Amazon Prime
 

Yep, don't work

Re: Amazon Prime
 

The Amazon Prime app has now been removed

Re: Amazon Prime
 

Ah - the power and influence of Cable Forum!

The new Amazon video accounts has launchedvi checked my V6 to see if I could set it up but it says the box is incompatible ���� any ideas also why do virgin take an age to update the apps

Re: Amazon Prime
 

Same reason they take ages to update EPG changes and to get Sky Atlantic and UHD content.

Re: Amazon Prime
 

It depends on the app provider. Both Netflix and the iPlayer app get features pretty much the same time as other platforms.

So Amazon need to do the code updates required for the TiVo version of Prime Video app to support the profiles and then Virgin need to deploy it to the V6 boxes.
