I am running XBMC Dharma on my Mac and I can get into the amazon add on, but when I click on a movie, the stream always fails and it says the playback failed. I have a feeling it is the RTMP since the Hulu add on doesnt work either. Though I am not sure how to check or update it for a mac. Here is the log file from pastebin to confirm or see what else the problem may be. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

go to the first result or just download a nightly.

Thanks for the very quick reply. I really appreciate it. I updated the rtmp, unluckily though, the streams (I tried multiple just in case) still did not work. Should I just download a nightly instead or is there something i missed. I'm just afraid to update to a nightly because of bugs. Here is the latest log file. Thanks again.

Looking at the logs it seems it didn't get updated. I don't know why. did you replace a file in Frameworks? i believe you right click on xbmc.app and choose show package contents. navigate to Contents/Frameworks and you should be replacing the librtmp file already there.
I am running a nightly on linux which seems to be mostly stable.
- fish3191 - 2011-10-22
I put it in the correct folder (XMBC.app/Contents/Frameworks). But it did not replace any librtmp file as there was not one in there in the first place. I am not sure where else it could be located.
- fish3191 - 2011-10-22
I did end up finding a librmtp.so file in XMBC.app/XBMC/system though. Is this a different file that I may need to update as well. It was last modified in March of 2011 in the build I'm using. Again, thanks for the constant help.

looked at the thread again. try poping it in XBMC.App/Contents/Resources/XBMC/system
you might want to rename the old one.
I think they changed location or how it was compiled. I am not really familiar with the XBMC build process.
try the one from this post

YES YES YES YES YES!!!! It works perfectly now without any problems. I really appreciate your constant help on this BlueCop. Your addons are amazing. There are quite a few add ons that now work because of your help.

I'm running current stable XBMC on Ubuntu 10.04. Hulu plays without problems, but Amazon streaming gives an error on all videos. I do have a Prime account and I've configured the plugin with my credentials. The important log error seems to be:
ERROR: RTMP_ReadPacket, failed to read RTMP packet header
The log clip is here:

Any idea what my problem might be?
Thanks.

Update: sorry my fault. I forgot i was working on better error handling and the password was blank.

Got your Amazon plug-in to work. I install the latest GIT and it now streams. Thanks, the add-on is perfect to me.

it needs new databases but I haven't had a chance to update them yet.
they have added a couple hundred movies and a huge amount of tv shows.
it is frustrating to me because naming conventions are off sometimes. it seems like products are entered by hand.
I am looking into the product api just for db building. it just take a rediculous amount of requests to get all the data on the videos.
- devicenull - 2011-10-23
I think the TV database needs some indexes:
Quote:create index url_index on seasons (url);
create index epi_index on episodes (seriestitle, season, isHD);
These should help speed up the TV database recreate, though I'm not sure by how much.

Cheers again

Search functionality, please, thanks!

My apology, Bluecop.
