Anyone else facing the issues playing HD videos in Amazon Prime. Even after changing the stream settings to Best quality it plays in 480p. It was working fine before and stopped all of sudden. Though the device is Widevine CDM Level 1 it should not have any issues playing HD or FHR videos.

I'm facing the same issue and it occurred since Android 10 upgrade.
Widevine is L1 for me too.
I ask to prime video technical support and they answered me the problem is in the phone (Xiaomi upgrade) and not in the app.
I 'don't know if it is right... but we are not the only ones with this issue.
Is there someone who could use primevideo in HD with android 10?
Does Netflix app work fine in HD or does it have the same issue?

Very strange!
In an Italian forum an user made the check on Netflix app and he could have the 1080p setting, only for Primevideo is not possible to have HD contents.
Any news about the problem?
It occurs also with MIUI 12...

Even after MIUI 12 update it's still the same. Xaomi claims that phone does support HD streaming.

Yes, in fact netflix, youtube, skygo and all other apps tried by me or by friends support hd.
Amazon customer service will open a ticket to xiaomi if someone could send to them the prime video app logs files.
Unfortunately on my phone, I couldn't collect their logs, because this operation doesn't work...
"send a feedback" function.
Could you try to call customer support and send them the logs?

I did try calling both Amazon and Xiaomi but no help. As per them the issue is with phone. Also Hardware Acceleration is missing under Amazon app for me which helps to play HD videos. Making the change in Hardware acceleration might help you.
Here they say it is a common problem with xiaomi and realme devices...
Amazon Prime HD streaming issue appears on Xiaomi devices, fix coming
Xiaomi devices facing Amazon Prime HD streaming issue even with Widevine L1 enabled is a known bug, fix to arrive in the future.

Guys , tbh if you check the history of this problem carefully, you will understand that Chinese phone companies (With widevine L1) are affected by this issue . I am a oneplus user. I got widevine L1 support. Still plaing 480p videos on prime .This is a trust issue problem by the ott platforms on Chinese devices.
I know I am very late
i also had the same issue but when I joined beta and updated it to the beta version i could stream in 1080p

It seems the apk for Netflix has been leaked can't seem to get it to work fully but maybe someone else can.

I was able to install and launch. I can search movies and manage my queue, but I get an error if I try to stream. Looks more like Netflix is blocking it than a system error.
It would be great to get Netflix streaming.

Amazon Prime bought Netflix of Europe,try their 30 day free movies on their instant video page,3000 movies so far, Free!
I use it on my A7,its great.After free trial its only $79.95 yr.
That s cheaper than Netflix USA and Blockbuster.
Thanks! I am a prime member but didn't know vids could be played on my elocity.

Netflix - Amazon Prime?
I am also a Prime member and can stream videos just fine to my Mac or my lil netbook, but when I try on the A7 tab, it returns a message that Amazon does not have this set up yet for mobile devices. I've even tried signing in through various browsers to the full Amazon site, but each time it seems to recognize my device and says it's not supported.
If you are running something that allows you to stream videos, please do tell!
there are some alternatives to playing hulu / netflix on your mobile...
PlayOn makes it possible to stream from your pc to mobile/tablet.
TVersity makes it possible to stream from hulu.com (no netflix i think)
on your tablet, use something like Skifta to play the DLNA stream, it works.. i tried it with Tversity / hulu.com .. not perfect, but it works..
maybe someone got a better dlna based and cheaper solution?
Netflix app released on market work with several devices wonder how we can make the a7 look like the evo 4g.

if it rely on "DRM" , A7 does not even support it at all..
my port "Blur" do support it, but not sure if its 100% implemented correctly from my side with directories and apps running.
A7 stock firmware has not support at all for DRM media.

I'm confused. I'm able to run Amazon Prime video no problem on mine. I don't remember if there was a app on amazon or what (my fuzzy brain seems to be telling me that there was a download prompted by Amazon the first time I went to the video section).
Just got my A500 via Staples mail order. Using the stock browser, I tried to catch up on my Falling Skies via XfinityTV with no success. Instead of a show, I got a message to install Microsoft Silverlight plug-in.
One of the reasons I got a tab is to be able to watch shows online when I'm stuck waiting for family at rehearsals, etc. I already have an e-reader and a video player, so this is the gap I need to cover.
Is this possible? Do I need a different browser? Or am I outta luck?
Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: In case anybody else is interested in this, Comcast "thinks" that the Xfinity android app will be updated to allow actual tv episode watching in a couple of months. Apple took precedence and they will eventually finish working on it for Android. Meanwhile, their app is good for controlling your DVR remotely, which is useless for me, which is why I tried to watch through the browser. Which is why I ended up posting here.
As far as I know there isn't any silverlight support for android yet. There was a project called moonlight that was supposedly going to bring silverlight to android but I did not hear anything new about it for the past 6 months, so I assume it is dead.
time to start calling and complaining.

To whom? It's hardly Acers or Google's fault that these sites decided to use a Windows only technology for their media streaming.
HBOGo on A500 works.
And given that HBOGo app streams video in H.264, the stream from the website is higher quality.
I am using Dolphin Browser
Did you install the app (from where, I don't see it in market) or do you just navigate to hbo dot com via browser? Thanks.

Just use the stock browser (or others), go to hbogo.com and sign in. It works that easy.

Almost. If you're on honeycomb 3.1, you need to go into your browser's settings and set the viewing mode to "desktop." If you're still on 3.0, you will need to set your browser to debug mode to enable desktop UA string.
Though really, you will want to watch on 3.1 because supposedly it gets better video performance with Flash.
And if some of the online shows require real player how do you watch that since
the extension is .smil and android real player can't open that to play.
Trying to run hbogo on stock browser along with dolphin opera and Firefox all a nogo has laggy video audio is great but picture very slow running 3.2 stock rom but these sites only run when in desktop mode tablet mode not an option any have a working apk version to install and see if we can get it working or some good setting for the browser

Greetings everyone, this is my first post. I found this comment and recalled seeing this on a blog of Jeffrey Steadfast who was developing that:
Jeffrey Stedfast said... Liam,
Unfortunately there's no update. We've been so focused on fixing bugs and implementing new features for MonoTouch and Mono for Android we just haven't had time to look at Moonlight anymore.

I would think that more or less confirms your thought that it might be dead.

I rooted my NP and put Pure Nexus on it. Looks great..but I can't get Netflix to work. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling and reflashing GAPPS to no avail. It opens and immediately "Sorry, we could not reach the Netflix service. Please try to restart the application (-116) . I restart it, only for the same thing to happen again. This is really very frustrating. Hoping someone can shed some light on why it's happening. Thanks.
Anyone? One of the reasons I bought a Nexus Player was for Netflix. I have it on my blu-ray player, but I can't really stand the way it looks on there.

I have the same issue on a tablet. I tried team blackouts latest Netflix and that one will install
Netflix just came out blocking it from the Google Play Store if they notice your device is rooted or bootloader unlocked. Currently you should be able to play, they did announce that it will BLOCK playing going forward on rooted unlocked devices. I can't believe it!

Where did they announce they will block playing ? Hopefully magisk hide will fix this issue. I love watching Netflix on my tablets. I'm not going to unroot them for anything.

Not sure if this is true where you are...its the carrier package that can determine the resolution of playback limited it too 480 instead of taking advantage of the full abilities of the screens resolution...

But i have the unlocked version and is connected to the wifi ....

L1 DRM is not the only requirement for Netflix. The device needs to be "whitelisted" by them. See "Netflix in HD" here:
https://help.netflix.com/en/node/23939
It looks like they did not whitelist the Snapdragon 632 processor, even though they did list 630. Netflix is annoying like that.
I cannot find Netflix in Google play store
Hi there,
I have a Moto G7 (US version) with Amazon Alexa Hands-Free – Unlocked, with its firmware totally replaced with the Stock US retail firmware. Everything is fine except I cannot run Netflix. I cannot find Netflix from Google play store. I tried to download several netflix apk files from apkmirror.com and install them but all of them failed to run with the message that the version of Netflix is not compatible with my phone.
Does this happen to you? Which version of netflix did you use? Where did you get it?
Thanks.
I found this version to work Netflix 3.16.6 build 5382 (arm) (Android 4.0+) https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/netfl...6-6-build-5382-android-apk-download/download/
Has anybody gotten Netflix to play in HD with a rooted T510?
So far I've tried:
1) Hiding Magisk from Netflix
2) Running the liboemcrypto disabler module on Magisk (This got Netflix to work but no HD)
3) Running the Netflix Enabler module
Nothing seems to allow me to watch videos in HD.
Any ideas?

With all of the "stay at home" orders, we have more an more people depending on streaming for entertainment. About the only thing to do. This is causing major bandwidth problems for the entire internet. Europe has gone so far as to ban 4k streaming from providers such as Netflix.
