RE: [RELEASE] Amazon Prime Instant Video plug-in addon - needmyamazon - 2012-05-20

Can someone try recompiling librtmp and post it here.

The first link that snpyjc posted doesn't work by the way

I'm using the latest build of XBMC with the Amazon Plug-in on iOS.

Oops, I tried to be helpful and screwed up, I fixed the link and here it is again:

snpyjc,

thank you so much. This finally fixed the problem for me and I can watch Amazon Prime on my iPad again. You're a genious!

Same problem for me. Not sure why.


RE: [RELEASE] Amazon Prime Instant Video plug-in addon - jmuck78 - 2012-05-23

I noticed that Amazon has added some movies/tv shows to the prime service, so I attempted a movieDB refresh on both the TV and Movies databases which resulted in an error message. I am running xbmc 11 (the release version) on OS X. I thought the error might be related to the recent Mac OS X upgrade, so I tried the library refresh on a different machine running OS X 10.7.3 and saw the same error. I then completely removed the Amazon app and the corresponding user data, and still could not refresh either library. I suspect the error is related to an Amazon site change, but I can't verify.

Error Log:

Has anyone else attempted a database refresh successfully in the past week or so? If so, could you please post the updated moviesDB and tvDB?

I am getting the same error, jmuck78. I cannot update either the movie or the TV show database.

Having that FLASH_ACCESS DRM issue myself today on Doctor Who Classic, 24 HD (Season 4 Episode 1), and many others.
Platform XBMC 11 "Eden" for Windows.
Addon Version: 0.4.6 straight from the repository today (first time added/configured on this system.

Very annoying that they would implement this kind of stuff as it just means I'll need to alternatively source materials I would otherwise be able to legally view just so I can use them in a convenient manner with my remote control.

Great Addon BTW. Thank you for it.

Damn, I'm getting the DRM error as well. Thought this was gone. Frustrating.


RE: [RELEASE] Amazon Prime Instant Video plug-in addon - jmuck78 - 2012-05-25

DRM Error here, too. I was waiting for this to show up again so I could try a few things, unfortunately, none of them worked. For the record, I had thought this might be some sort of stale Flash DRM token and that removing the stale tokens would allow XBMC to refresh its Flash tokens and clear the DRM error.

(running XBMC 11 on Mac OS X 10.7.4) and flash version 11.2.202.235.

Tried going to the flash control preferences panel and deleted all cached browser files and settings. FAIL

Tried Deauthorizing this computer through flash player preferences panel. FAIL

Tried Deleting commoncache.db in the xbmc user data folder. FAIL

In retrospect, its not a surprise that this hypothesis failed because everybody seems to experience the DRM errors at exactly the same time (sometime last night).

Interestingly, the DRM error is still not uniform throughout the database. The movie Melancholia still plays, although "24" and Mission Impossible III do not. I also thought the DRM error might be related to the way Blue Cop pre-generates a database of Amazon Prime files, but Mission Impossible III is not yet in the Amazon Prime moviesDB file, and it still exhibited the DRM error.

I still do not understand why the DRM error exists in XBMC, but not the browser on my system - even though both are (presumably) using the same version of Flash installed on the machine.

I'm obviously no expert on this topic, but I thought I would post my thoughts and trials/errors in case it is helpful to someone more knowledgeable on this topic.


RE: [RELEASE] Amazon Prime Instant Video plug-in addon - jmuck78 - 2012-05-25

Here's the log file for the movie Melancholia, which successfully played:
http://pastebin.com/yWWvzQcJ

Here's the log file for Mission Impossible III, which displayed the DRM error:
http://pastebin.com/cfSk1bL6

Note the warning message below:
13:26:40 T:2956587008 WARNING: HandShake: Type mismatch: client sent 6, server answered 9

I thought this warning (or error) was characteristic of using the incorrect librtmp library, yet this message appears for both Melancholia (which played correctly) and Mission Impossible III (which did not).


RE: [RELEASE] Amazon Prime Instant Video plug-in addon - Citizen_Seven - 2012-05-26

I'm not sure if this is going to help or hinder the search for a solution, but Mission Impossible 3 plays for me. Now, I made a STRM file for it since it's not in the latest amazon plugin db. Here's the code:

plugin://plugin.video.amazon/?url="http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fproduct%2FB000I68800"&mode="play"&sitemode="PLAYVIDEO"

I'm still using XBMC 11-RC1 and BlueCop plugin v 0.4.6 if that adds any useful information.


RE: [RELEASE] Amazon Prime Instant Video plug-in addon - jmuck78 - 2012-05-26

Citizen_Seven, what OS version are you running? I just tried this on XBMC v11 Final on Mac OSX 10.7.3 with no luck. What version of flash are you using?


RE: [RELEASE] Amazon Prime Instant Video plug-in addon - Citizen_Seven - 2012-05-27

I'm running it on Windows 7, with Flash 11.2.202.228. I also just verified that MI3 still works inside XBMC, using the STRM as indicated above.

However, I just noticed your reference above to the db giving an error on forced refresh. I get the same error, which may give credence to the idea that particular problem is an Amazon site change one.


RE: [RELEASE] Amazon Prime Instant Video plug-in addon - jmuck78 - 2012-05-27

Is this a Mac OS Problem?


RE: [RELEASE] Amazon Prime Instant Video plug-in addon - Lowen SoDium - 2012-05-27

Your flash version is irrelevant. XBMC does not use flash, which is why it can not play Flash DRM files. XBMC decodes flash video using its own internal player.

I am starting to wonder if some of Amazon's content servers have DRM enabled, but some others do not.
