Hello,
i am German but living in France and must use VPN/OpenVPN to watch German streaming as the "Mediatheken" or "Amazon Prime Instant Video". So as i am using OSMC/kodi i installed openvpn with gateways in Frankfurt and Munich. If i activate openvpn in the NOW Mediathek Addon e.g. VOX all is played includes the TV-Shows CIS:NY, Chicago Fire, … without activate VPN they don´t! Also the vpn works.
But in the Amazon Instant Addon everytime i want to play a Movie or TV-Show, it says: This isn´t available in your Country ("In Deinem Land nicht verfügbar").
But if i switch to OpenElec 5.0.6 or lower with Kodi/Helix, there is a VPN Client build in in the Settings (witch will be gone in the next release for "Isengard") Amazon Instant is playing fine.
Is this a bug/feature in OpenVPN that Amazon doenst work with it?
Thx for some input
