Adobe dropped support for flash on both Linux and Android platforms so unless Amazon switches to html5 or native player it won't be possible.

HEY FRANK:Dont think you are crazy. Adobe pulled its support for Amazon Unbox videos and the like. So, you simply wont be able to play your videos over your Asus until Amazon finds a way to patch or come up with a ew system of allowing people like you and I to watch the videos we have purchased. It licks balls because if you cant watch movies over it, whats the point, right? I have been assured that Amazon is working on this and will have a fix sooner than later. Until then, I either just watch stuff on Hulu or Youtube or, watch the stuff you have on Amazon at home over your Toshiba like I do. HEY FRANK:Dont think you are crazy.

You should be able to stream Amazon video if you access it using Chrome browser. Otherwise, try sideloading Adobe flash version that's a generation older. That has worked with my Android tablets.

I have streamed video from Amazon as a Prime member. It was free and worked well. It was a long time ago, so I don't remember the details. Right now I'm using Netflix and the kindle fire to video stream to a large TV with an HDMI cable which works great.

Accessing the amazon instant video app is basically a shortcut or bookmark to Amazon because you are logging in through the web. It works fine, haven't had any issues with it.

Some movies are not streaming due to the missing plug in ( adobe 10.2) version . I have downloaded an application from google play to run the movie after downloading it . Now i can watch some movies after downloading it but earlier it was not possible.

The RCA Wi-fi device does not allow you to stream Amazon.com movies. You can stream only Netflix, Vudu, Hulu Plus, You Tube videos, as well as Pandora music. I wish it did stream Amazon. When i want to view a movie through Amazon, I have to use my computer or my Kindle Fire device.

I have not found anything that I could not download onto this device. I have watched videos on it but I have not downloaded Adobe Flash...that said, it could have already been on the device when I got it, Adobe Reader was. I love this thing and so do my grandchildren (ages 13 & 9). They both play game and watch tons of Youtube vids.

You put A200 in the question, though this is on the A500 page. However, the answer is the same. At the current time, I can see now way of viewing your Amazon Prime Movies and TV on any android device, except for the Kindle Fire Tabs. Though I have not personally confirmed this, there is supposedly an iOS app capable of streaming Amazon instant content, so that may bode well for the eventual release of an Android version. Until then, I'd recommend either Netflix, or Vudu, or both! Vudu's movie selection is amazing, and prices aren't too bad, plus not monthly fee's. Netflix, on the other hand, has TV shows coming out the wazoo, and for $8 a month, I get more than my use out of it. Good luck!

netflix has its own app and works great on the tablet. amazon prime however does not have its own app and will need to be viewed on a browser. you'll need Dolphin Browser and Adobe Flash installed and correctly configured. works fine on my tablet. here is a link on how to get it all set up: the-digital-reader.com/nates-reviews/stream-amazon-instant-videos-android-tablet/if the adobe flash player link in that article doesn't work for whatever reason, you can download it here as well: downloadandroidfiles.org/Files/Apps%20%28APK%29/KitKat.Adobe.Flash.Player.11.1.apk

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.

Please, someone that has actually done this should be the one to answer. The reason I say that is because I just recently (within a week ago from right now) discovered, along with other people, that it is still not possible to watch Amazon Instant Video material on an Android Tablet unless it's one of Amazon's tablets. If anyone has direct, personal experience to the contrary with this exact tablet model, please post up.

Yeah, I'm stuck using Netflix + Vudu despite being an Amazon junkie. Would love to watch Amazon movies on one of my devices (xbox 360, boxee, apple tv), but none of them support it. Come on Amazon. Kindle rules because it works on every device, why isn't Amazon video the same?

Shante, I have at least two different video (BSPlayer and aVia) players installed on my Kindle Fire...but not MX Player. My players also play many file types. When you are ready to play a movie to the Kindle Fire (from the Wi-Drive) you will have a choice of which player to use. For me it has been seamless to play a movie stored on the Wi-Drive on the Kindle Fire. I assume the same would be true for MX Player but, again, I haven't used it with the Wi-Drive.

I have the same issue when i go to the amazon app or push the amazon button on my remote I get a screen that is grey that says "The amazon instant application is currently unavailable while we are working hard to bring you an updated, feature rich, application. For more details, please visit http://www.amazon.com/videohelp" has anyone actually gotten an amazon app that works on this tv? Or getting the same thing I am? The web page it says to go to is just a link to amazon cust. support.

For now you can use amazon app store. Tried many ways to get google play and flash player installed. so far I have not had any luck. Hopefully there will be some of the modding communty getting involved soon, so the device can be rooted which will give superuser permissions to install the much needed apps.

If you side load flash and use Firefox browser yes . When at Amazon.com go to your movie list and make your selection, when it brings up the player it will say not compatible just scroll down until you get to the bottom and click where it says amazon full site and then enjoy. Oh if you select full screen in the player it plays full screen

Adobe Flash is only supported on Android 2.2 (Froyo) and above. The player you describe runs Android 2.0 (Eclair). So no, you can't run Adobe Flash on this tablet unless/until it is updated to Froyo or Gingerbread.BTW, Flash support won't help if what you want is to watch Hulu. Hulu blocks all portable devices at their end.
