I have a 2011 Panasonic Viera TV and want to watch Amazon Prime videos. Do I need to get both a LAN Adaptor and a Firestick? What about Fire TV?

This particular model is not internet ready. I'm sure that Samsung has another model that would meet your needs, if amazon prime needs it. They're great TVs.

Get a micro-HDMI adapter or a cable that is micro-HDMI to HDMI. Connect the micro-HDMI side to your tablet, then connect the HDMI side to your tv. There's no amazon prime app yet, so you'll have to watch it in the web browser.

No. You will need to add an Internet device such as Roku to hook up to Amazon Prime.

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.

Yes you can. You just plug the roku into 1 of the 4 HDMi ports. And the Amazon Fire has USB ports available for the Amazon fire stick.

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.

You need a form of Adobe FlashPlayer; it is not pre-installed on the device as Google announced in 2012 that it was discontinuing Flash for mobile devices. There are a couple of easy options available to get around this issue; you can load a browser from PlayStore that has Flash bundled in such as FlashFox (free app). FlashFox works, but it can lag at times and the ads at the bottom of the browser window drive me nuts. The better way is the second option; Amazon announced in September that it would support Prime for Android mobile devices. This can be extended to tablets using the appropriate steps. Just follow the instructions shown below to install the required apps: 1) Install the Amazon Appstore on your device. ( https://www.amazon.ca/gp/feature.html?docId=1001206081) 2) Open the Amazon Appstore (orange icon), search for the Amazon app (the icon has the Amazon logo over a blue shopping basket), and install it. 3) Open the newly installed Amazon App (shopping basket icon), & sign into your account. 4) Once signed in, navigate to any Prime instant video and select "watch now". You will then be prompted to install Amazon Player; do so. 5) Once player installs, you're done. You can now watch any Prime video via your Amazon App. Please note, there is an Amazon app for tablets on Google PlayStore, but it WILL NOT support Prime video on tablets. You must use the above instructions in order to achieve Prime video functionality on this tablet. Hope this helps

I haven't tried Amazon, but suddenly my ability to get Netflix, Youtube, Facebook, etc. has disappeared. I have talked with Netflix & with my internet provider...they concluded it's the tv. I've seen the problem in online forums. They say to reset the tv back to factory settings. But I'm going to call Vizio & see if they can walk me through it.

Yes, you can run Amazon Prime -- the icon is even built in already (for both Netflix and Amazon). Your essential need is an HDMI cable, which is an added cost. I haven't actually done this, because it's not movies we screen here. But it's fairly straightforward, and Amazon has great technical help.

You can now watch Amazon Prime Videos through Amazons app. Download there app and navigate to a prime instant video. It will then prompt you to download their player. Streams fine, but cannot download the videos like you can on a fire tablet.

I watch amazon instant videos on this from a roku. The tv itself is not Internet enabled.

Yes, this Sony Blu-ray player will allow you to stream videos on Amazon Prime. Other online services are Netflix, YouTube, Hulu, Vudu, Crackle and many more. -Ely

No , you will need another source, I bought a Panasonic DVD player for about$120.00 which has Amazon Prime streaming on it works great.

The TV is advertised as "WiFi Ready", not "WiFi Built in". What that means is that it does not have WiFi without a WiFi adapter that you have to buy separately. I plug my Panasonic directly into an Ethernet router. That works great. I can stream movies directly from providers like Netflix and Amazon. But since I have never had a need to get an adapter I have never used one. I suspect it would work like my Ethernet cable. Plug it in one of the USB ports, log-on to your wireless router, hit the Internet button on the controller and your good to go. Here is a sample adapter: Panasonic TY-WL20U Wireless Adapter for Panasonic 2012 Internet Ready TVs
