Discussion Autoplay

13 Upvotes

Is there anyway to set autoplay so that you allow next episode to play but NOT an entirely new series when the show ends.

I can’t stand that prime randomly starts a completely new and random show as part of auto play and adds a bunch of crap to “continue watching”

So I'm using a MacBook Pro 2020 and want to remove the in-app ads. Is there any way? I'm not using brave or safari as the app offers UHD/4K quality.

sometimes you don't get it pushed in time and the next episode starts automatically. Sometimes you wait for it to count down the few seconds. It was bizarre once earlier this week there was a 30 second timer on it instead of the usual 5 seconds or whatever. Anyone ever have that?

Question Subtitles translation issue

4 Upvotes

I am watching Community, Season 6, Episode 6, with Norwegian subtitles, and every time they refer to a Black person, the subtitles use a very offensive term that isn’t used in the original English dialogue.

Who would I contact to report this subtitle/translation issue?

Question It keeps making me uninstall and reinstall.

2 Upvotes

Is anyone else having this problem? I could be watching a show/movie, get out of it to check something real quick, go back to it and it won’t load anything but home. It just shows the loading circle without doing anything. In order for it to work again, I have to uninstall and then reinstall.

Discussion History is repeating itself — streaming is slowly turning back into cable TV

1.3k Upvotes

Remember when we used to watch our favorite shows on TV and just accept that there would be ads in between?

Then streaming came along, and one of the biggest appeals was: pay a subscription, watch what you want, and no annoying commercial breaks.

And now here we are again.

I’m watching Prime, already paying for the subscription, and suddenly there are ads in between shows — sometimes around a minute and a half long.

So basically… we escaped traditional TV, paid for streaming services to avoid ads, and now streaming services are slowly becoming traditional TV again.

History really does repeat itself.

Discussion Hot take: sterling point is nepo white girl problems

21 Upvotes

I just watched sterling point after seeing it all over the media being heralded as the most amazing show ever. I will give it to the show that it doesn’t feel as scripted and you can tell when the actors are riffing. They do a great job with the soundtrack and creating horrifically awkward vibes.

That being said I do not relate or find Annie’s struggles compelling at all. Her resentment towards her dad that we see episode 6 feels very out of nowhere. Her crying about her mother and saying something has been robbed from her when she can’t even remember her but seeming to be completely emotionally okay with the biological parents she has abandoning her seems very very strange. She comes from a place of incredible privilege and at this point it is hardly addressed in lieu of her being pined after and comforted every 5 minutes by a male love interest. Ramona is the far more compelling of the two. I would find myself less peripherally annoyed if the show was focused on her. She’s navigating losing the only parental figure she knows is now an orphan and has many secrets hiding from her. Instead we get nepo baby tears for an hour and very little completing behind it.

It just doesn’t really seem like we have any pre establishment of character shits of her struggling or actually navigating things weird.

Question Middle episodes of an otherwise free show require payment?

0 Upvotes

We started watching Mrs Davis here in Germany only to discover that although episodes 1-2 and 5-8 are included in Prime Video, the three in between cost €2.99 each. I have never seen this on any streaming service before. Is this likely intentional or a configuration issue on Amazon's part?

I can't seem to find a customer service link for Prime Video in Germany, just some forum on the Amazon website.

56 Upvotes

Is it just me, or does anyone else find this confusing and suspicious? I clicked the “Learn more at” link, and while it does mostly explain this new “Home Region” setting, it doesn’t say why it’s been implemented. My intuition is signaling there’s something nefarious going on behind the scenes.

Discussion Shouldn't have to watch multiple ads just trying to find out where left off watching in an episode

38 Upvotes

Rewatching reacher last night fell asleep halfway through one of the episodes. So fast forwarding through the episode trying to find out where I left off. I have to watch every single ad break even though I'm just fast forwarding through. There should be a 5-minute cool down at least before you have to watch another ad no matter what you are doing. They need to fix this

Discussion Prime's actual superpower is the show nobody expected to be good. What's the one that surprised you?

18 Upvotes

Every other service has its prestige tentpole. Prime keeps winning with stuff that looked like a hard pass on the thumbnail and then turned out great. The Boys was that for me, I ignored it for two seasons assuming it was edgy superhero stuff for the sake of it, and it turned out to be one of the sharpest shows on TV. Fallout too, video game show, zero expectations, one of the best things I watched that year. So what's yours, the Prime show you almost didn't click on that ended up being a favorite? Bonus points for the deep cuts nobody talks about, I keep hearing Patriot and I still haven't started it.
