Time for another "massive reply since I've been gone for months" post.
Seems like a decoding error.
At the moment there is no way to sync from PrimeVideo to Amazon VOD, although the opposite does work. It also works within Kodi.
Those are repos zips, not addons. You need to select the .zip while adding a new repository. After that you can download the addons from the repos.
Note: make sure you select leia for Kodi 18 or matrix for Kodi 19, or there'll be hell to pay in cleaning up.
There are/have been changes with the authentication code, mainly to get around new Amazon's restrictions. I don't handle that portion of the code, but it might be solved by now. There may or may not be a problem with OTPs at the moment.
Yes, the addon is repo ready for the Matrix release, and I am supposed to manage it, but I wanted to provide some accessibility functions that are long overdue before pushing it to public and fix a couple minor issues, but between work, COVID and my newborn daughter it's become tough to find the time.
Absolutely.
Thumbs are cached by Kodi, most of the rest is cached by us. And yes, it gets very faster.
It might be quite the problem for us because some of these issues require a JS interpreter which MechanicalSoup doesn't have. There are multiple ways to fix this, including logging in a browser and then copying the cookies manually into the addon file.
Not enough info, especially without logs. Open an issue on GitHub and provide info and logs if you need help.
There's a Kodi function, instead of pressing OK/Enter, open the contextual menu (via right mouse button, contextual menu key or through a remote button) and select "Play from here".
We support live channels, but I'm not sure of the specifics for USA.

Am I missing something in the settings or do these functions not work.

I receive a text message from Amazon with a redirect where I can approve the login but this won't allow me to sign in into the app. I keep receiving the same error and I keep receiving approval requests from Amazon
Anyone else experiencing this problem? Anyone knows a workaround?

Absolutely.

Does it get faster at caching thumbs or anything?
Thumbs are cached by Kodi, most of the rest is cached by us. And yes, it gets very faster.

Did you find a solution at all?
