I own the BD-E5900 and was not able to get the Amazon Instant Video. In checking the Samsung support website at: http://www.samsung.com/us/appstore/app/G00009411006-compatible, the BD-E5900 is not listed as a compatible device for Amazon Instant Video.

We just got the BD-E5900 model to stream Amazon Instant Video after upgrading the software from v1063 to v1066.

I contacted Samsung who told me there was not an Amazon app available for that player, even though Amazon told me there was. I ended up disconnecting the player and bought Roku.

No, there is no Amazon Prime ability yet. There might be one in the future via firmware update, but I won't hold my breath. If I want to watch a video from Amazon, I can purchase it on my tablet and use the WiDi feature of this product to display it on my HDTV. An improvement over the neoTV200 model.

You would have to side load it like you do on a rooted phone. Do a Google search for Amazon instant video apk for android then download it. Go to the downloads folder and install. I'm sure it will work Samsung did a great job on leaving it like an open source platform. I can't say for sure cause I don't use amazon prime but I'm willing to bet it can be done I went thru 3 apks for hulu before I found one I liked but all did work. Hope I helped

Netflix is a menu option. I also connected to Amazon Prime through the TV's internet connection. Basically, anything that is accessible through the internet is accessible through the TV, however some formats are not playable, such as .mkv files. I had no problem with .avi or .mp4 formats.

Do you have access to Yahoo Widgets through your TV? If so, you will need to install the Amazon Widget via the Yahoo Widget Store. As far as I know, that's the only way to access Amazon Instant Video on Samsung TVs. Did you contact Samsung directly to see if you can install Yahoo Widgets?EDIT: After looking further, it doesn't look like this TV has any Apps features at all. Unless they were somehow added via firmware update. If there was no update, I think you might be out of luck.

No there is no way to add an App... they say that Sharp may add Amazon Prime in a future update but that's up to Sharp.

Amazon Prime works as an app on this TV for me. I had to perform a software update when I first received it in order to make it work, but it did eventually let me enter my credentials and watch Amazon Prime video.

No. The Amazon spp from Samsung will not work as of 6 months ago. Go to Samsungs app site to see if they have reworked it to support this player. I know a lot of people want them to do it.

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

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

Download the Netflix or Hulu app. There is now an app from Amazon that's supposed to let you watch Prime movies if you are a Prime customer, but I haven't been able to get it to work.

You can stream with this player so I don't see why you could not stream amazon prime.

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.

Yes, I agree. I was at first excited to see so many videos I'd like to see listed as Amazon Prime Eligible videos, but am frustrated to discover that they are not available on my home television. If this is not fixed within the month, I doubt I will be extending my amazon prime trial into a full membership. How strange they would alienate an entire range of customers by not developing what must surely be a simple-to-make samsung app.

Nothing from amazon on this after 8 months. I am surprised and annoyed that they have an app for the tv's but not for the blu-ray players which drive surround sound systems. It seems that amazon supports the lowest common denomintor of consumer devices samsung tv sets, but not the next notch up. Time to move on to a more robust solution, imho.
