Is this adapter compatible with Amazon Prime video streaming? If not, is there a 30-pin AV Adapter (HDMI) that will do so? Also.Splashtop compatible?

It worked for us! My advice is still to buy an Apple TV and use the HDMI cable to connect it to your TV - the adapters haven't lasted long for me so it was cheaper in the long run to buy the little box and set it up - you can use the Bluetooth to mirror your ipad or iphone onto the TV if you want to use an app that isn't already pre-programmed into Apple TV

Haven't tried it with Amazon Prime but it does work with You Tube. Don't know if there is an alternative for an Apple adapter, check on Apple Blogs.

It should - I've never had any problem streaming any video with this device. If there was ever a problem doing so the adaptor wasn't to blame.

I am using a Roku to watch Amazon Prime and Netflix with this television. I do not believe that this television can directly connect to these streaming services. You will probably need a separate device, but it doesn't need to be as complicated as a PC. I highly recommend the Roku for what you are asking.

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

Microsoft has a usb direct line to connect to a HDMI TV.But may I suggest something a little easier if you have Wi-Fi. Try Amazon FIRE. You can connect directly to your HDTV with this device and watch Amazon PRIME Movies. It comes linked to YOUR ACCOUNT so there's no searching for your favorite shows. It also shows Netflix, HULU plus and many more channels. It comes with its own remote making it easier to search and control the content you watch.And no...this is not a commercial.....I am actually a CHROMECAST user myself and love it but I am not sure is compatible with Microsoft. BTW I LOVE my CHROME CAST !Good luck I hope this helped Microsoft has a usb direct line to connect to a HDMI TV.But may I suggest something a little easier if you have Wi-Fi. Try Amazon FIRE.

Thank you for your reply. I forgot to mention that I'm trying to stream HD mpg files that I'm getting off my Tivo HD. Not sure about their bit-rate but I guess it is high enough. That is the question: What router+adapter allows HD streaming, at least 1080i?As far as I understand it now, old G technology will not fit, we need N-wireless and not 2.4 GHz but 5 GHz etc.

Natively, Amazon Prime Instant Videos require Adobe Flash Player installed on the tablet, which is not available on Android tablets like this Acer. Kindle Fire and iPads are supported. There are several free apps which state that they can stream Amazon Instant Videos; however I have not found one that works. I just unsuccessfully tried the free "Can I Stream It" app. If you are adventuresome the following link will supposedly step you through how to install and run Flash on an Android tablet - http://www.teleread.com/amazon/how-to-stream-amazon-instant-videos-on-a-nexus-7-or-other-android-tablet/. If running Amazon Instant Video on a tablet is important to you, I suggest that you get an Apple iPad instead.

It works well with Amazon prime....in fact BETTER than my Roku box. Roku has "buffering" from time to time, never saw that with this. But it does not have the advertised Flixster support, so beware.

Is it trying to output 1080p HD? This adapter won't work with 1080p. I had to find this out the hard way. Plus, going through many adapters is not a good idea. I'd recommend buying just an HDMI to VGA adapter.

Yes it will, I use it to stream my Video library on Plex with the Amazon Stick and works just fine..

Not sure about Amazon Prime, but I can stream videos from Hula Plus and Netflix. This is a fantastic product.

Thanks BlueDemon.I have actually been following the thread on AVSForum since it began. While there are some reports of loose HDMI connectors, muting, etc; it really isn't much (actual content-wise vs. wishing/hoping-wise). Amazon had a yellow note on their HT-CT500 page for a while saying that no orders were being taken because of Amazon customer-reported issues. I was curious to see what the actual issues were (causing a suspension of sales), in case any of those customers returned here.Thanks~Bill

I stream my movies thru the PLEX app on my samsung and mine is a bd5500, older. Go to samsungs website and see if they have an app for amazons video, I would bet that they do, and most apps are free. good luck

I use mine to stream movies all the time directly from Amazon Prime and Netflix. What kind of device are you talking about? You mean using the Kindle in place of a TV or monitor? I do know that with the proper adaptor you can stream Netflix or Prime through your Kindle onto a full size TV that has USB or HDMI ports.

I'm considering buying a VBR337 myself because it is listed on Amazon's site as compatible with app for Amazon streaming video. I currently have Vizio TV and a non-Amazon-compatible Vizio BR player. Check out compatibility list at

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.

No, it won't play amazon video. You're right, when I tried to download Adobe it says it's not supported on your device
