A few weeks ago, the stream stability was much better with this addon. Maybe, Amazon has change anything and this addon needs an update?
In my experience the stream stability with this addon is (at the moment) much worse than with the officially Amazon-Addon in my Smart-TV. Because of that, at the moment I prefer the officially Amazon-Addon in my Smart-TV.
Can anybody confirm my experience?

what do you mean with stability?
For me the addon is stable, no exceptions are thrown etc.
Main problem is that amazon cant deliver the content fast enough in the evening. This cause constant buffering.
Your Smart-TV changes image quality on the fly, therefore you dont notice this problem.

Nope, never had bandwidth issues with my ISP during the evening. Tried several speed tests. So I still see that as an Amazon issue.

I was not referring to those artificial speed tests some websites are offering. I use several video streaming offers inside Kodi including HD content and they all run fine. But with amazon even the lowest HD quality (4000K) is giving the mentioned buffering issues (at prime time). And there are several forums e.g. kodinerds.net where people reporting that issue frequently and I don't think that they all have ISP issues.

Thank you very much for this great plugin! It's what I've been waiting for to make my raspbi a close to perfect media center.
To those who are still getting a script error on opening the watchlist: Use the website to remove all movies whose title contains special characters. For me it was the french grave accent in "Les Misérables".

Awesome plugin, I know it's still the first version but will you be adding UHD support in the future? Thanks again
