Good lord I really don't know! i recommend that you update your firmware if that doesn't work check out or change the input and also check on settings the native resolution please let me know as soon as posible if i solve your problem, we can work this out ;)

My understanding is this player does not support Amazon Prime. I also verified this with live chat. Bummer.

1. Yes, i have connected a cat 5 cable from my wireless router to my sony player and am able to surf the internet. 2. yes, it came pre~installed and was able to sign up but do not really use the service my self. even though I was successful in downloading a free movie. I really do not subscribe to netflix,I do not see any reason why it should not work if amazon video did. Crackle worked fine for me. Hulu is a subscription service like netflix and unfortunately I do not have any intention of paying for these services.

There is no Amazon native app that I can see on it as of current firmware update. If the content you downloaded through Amazon isn't protected by any kind of DRM and is just a video file it will most likely play, this thing hasn't refused to play anything I've put in it so far. I just upload all the files to it via LAN and things play just fine.

I've been wondering the same thing. I'm not sure this would be worth purchasing if it isn't capable of HD streaming. Does anyone know if this is something that could be resolved with a software update, or would it require Slingbox to release a new "Slingcatcher HD"?

No. I called Panasonic, and the technician said that Amazon could not be added to the list of video services for this model. I sent it back.

If you buy the internet adapter it should stream amazon, netflix, etc. I bought one, but it didn't work. I suggest buying a Roku instead if you want to stream. I have one, and it works extremely well.

I'm pretty sure it's related to something Amazon did. I've tried watching Amazon Instant Video on a couple computers in the past week and when I went to play the video, they both said, "Updating player..." I hope it isn't broken for good; I use Amazon Video more on my TouchPad than on any other device.

Well, I haven't been able to get it to work. I purchased it from Amazon for the particular reason to watch Prime movies and when I wrote to them about it, the answer was...Oh well! I still haven't been able to get it to work because it is not listed in their streaming device list.

Call Panasonic and complain. I have called numerous times insisting they come up with a firmware update to resolve the issue of no 5.1 sound on Amazon Video

It seems like you used to be able able to - but I think they deactivated the output in the last few updates. Same goes for Netflix & Amazon Instant Video

According to this link (http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=200238960), looks like you cannot play movies that you purchased from Amazon on this unit.

I know it supports the Amazon system, Netflix, and I believe it also supports Red Box streaming, but I wouldn't swear to it. Seems to work well, but a trick I have learned is if you have a problem with discs not loading correctly or any function not working, unplug the unit then plug it back in and it seems to reprogram it to function good as new. Strange, but it relies heavily on being controlled by the remote, and it will occasionally seem to be confused on the function. By unplugging it this seems to solve the issue and it hasn't been a problem as a result. I have it plugged into a rack system with many other stereo and video components so that might be what is causing it.

two of my sisters have that TV and yes Amazon Prime Instant Video will stream through it but there is no application inside the TV. you have to use a blu ray dvb, Apple streamer or Ruko but it will look beautiful

P.Hogan.. how do you stream BBC Acorn, Netflix and Amazon on your TV without going through a Blu-Ray or a Tivo?
