I tried this with a new Amazon fire box. The amazon logo appears then the screen blanks out and tv reports no signal - anyone else have success with t

See if you can lower the resolution on the box to no more than 1080i/720p before hooking it up to the converter.

I haven't used it with the Fire Box, just a Sony Blu Ray/Instant Streamer. I'm sorry, but I did not have any issues...worked flawlessly. Good luck!

I haven't had this particular message but have had "failed to receive signal" displayed. The additional antenna I purchased from Amazon is better than the one included with the TV. Moving the antenna just slightly can result in better signal reception. I have also used an amplified antenna which works even better.

We just got this today and we got it to pair to the fire stick. However, we had the same problem it the directional arrows and toggle switches worked, but you could not select anything. I would really suggest if you have a fire stick, to avoid this item.

Fire tv has its own remoteYou probably should check with Amazon fire about that

Sorry, I couldn't get it to work either. Technically, I lack the insight to know why, just consider it the wrong black box I bought with no returns from Amazon direct on this item.

Same thing happened to me. Returned my cable, but haven't yet ordered a new one. Could not figure out if my tv was incompatible or my cable was defective.

If you have a mini HDMI port that outputs the signal, it should work same as if you linked a monitor/TV to a laptop. I'm not sure if the Fire outputs, but assume it does. Most smart phones do. Good luck. The cable I purchased went from Mini to regular HDMI connection. My camera outputs Mini and my monitor is regular.If it doesn't work, right off the bat, make sure you have the correct settings on your Fire and whatever you'll be broadcasting to. There may even be an app for this.

Hello Kathryn. I have never had any difficulty using Amazon Prime with this television? I use it frequently in fact. What issues arise for you?

The one I bought did not even work with my Kindle (as claimed). Even if the ad expressly named the Fire, I hope my experience gives you pause. Good luck.

It's functioning on my set. EDIT: APPARENTLY there are a few different firmware versions on these sets...mine is E550i-b2 V 1.16.47.0758. Some sets have E550i-b2 V 1.25.24.0234. My opinion is that this is causing a lot of problems in the tv enthusiast community. It's possible that Amazon Instant Video is NOT working on both firmware versions, as some are still reporting it isn't functioning. Vizio is NOT offering a firmware update at this time, so as far as I know, you are stuck with what firmware version you get....for the time being.

I asked Samsung an additional question - which I will share - I have only basic cable (no box) and the PIP will NOT WORK AT ALL!!! When I reverse cables (i.e. DVD player) I can tell the PIP works. Samsung failed to identify that one MUST HAVE a paid for cable box. Contact with them has resulted in NO ANSWER!!!

I don't know. Mine works fine. If it's like all the other Amazon stuff, I guess yes.

stopped working for me too. I bet the xmas spike caused their servers to fall over. has anyone figured out how to skip the viera cast screen and just go direct to Amazon VOD? hey Amazon, if you're reading this, ask your OEM partners to include a VOD button that skips their crappy software and goes direct to Amazon.
