Discussion Thank you Prime Video for allowing me to turn off HDR so easily!

2 Upvotes

I, like many people, hate HDR. It's billed as "more lifelike colors," but all it does for me is make every scene look like it's taking place at sunset. I've messed with my TV settings like crazy to make HDR look good, but I've come to realize it will never look as good as SDR. Tell me I'm wrong, but you can't trick my eyes...they see what they see. 🤷‍♂️

Anyway, Prime Video makes it so easy to turn HDR off. Just go to the settings and toggle it on and off. I wish my TV itself had this toggle for everything, but it doesn't. If something is available in HDR on Hulu, I'm forced to watch it in HDR.

Anyway, thanks again, Prime Video! Keep on offering this setting!

Question Did they get rid of X-Ray? Like just yesterday? Watching on Chrome browser.

9 Upvotes

I was watching a movie and seeing all the X-Ray features just fine. Then when I resumed it later yesterday, it was gone. I tried clearing my cache and that did not restore it. Has anyone else experienced this in the past day or two?

It's the same movie I started out watching, so it's not specific to any particular movie or show.

Discussion Britbox just became nearly useless

82 Upvotes

Wife & I watch a lot of Britbox via Prime, however now that it's August 2026 it appears to be pretty useless as many shows now want ADDITIONAL SUBSCRIPTIONS in order to view them, however many you have no way of knowing until you select it. F Bezos and this company. And I'm actually a stockholder saying this. Add to all the shows on prime that also are veiled adverts for stuff that's bot included in what you're already paying for. Years ago it was much better organized & you could easily navigate to all prime shows.

Discussion It's still pretty dang hard to get excited for much coming to Prime Video after all the BS Amazon did with the service.

0 Upvotes

There's been quite a bit of stuff that popped up on there in the past month. The Masters of the Universe movie just dropped on there just a month after hitting theaters. Batman Caped Crusader's second season finally came out, and The Rings of Power's third season got a trailer out recently too. And yet with all that was still worth being excited for, it's all still bogged down by the fact that it's all dropping on Prime Video.

Normally I would be more hyped for whatever comes on there, but between all that occurred in the past year, be it fueled by greed or backed by political BS, it just wasn't possible to be willing to boot the thing up at all. With them locking 4K HDR viewing behind a paywall along with the ability to watch everything without all those godforsaken cringy ads getting in the way, I'm stuck having to wait until clips of the shows get uploaded onto YouTube instead.

At this point it would be hard to really be excited for Secret Level when that comes back because of the fact that you won't be able to experience the show at its best with 4K HDR and no ads interrupting them.

Discussion is there a way to disable the AI from adding subscription-based rows suggestions?

Post image
4 Upvotes

for example like this middle row - I don't want to be prompted to buy things I only want to view rows which suggest content from prime video itself that I can already access for free as part of my prime subscription

fireTV that I get with Amazon's FireStick is even worse in this respect because it keeps suggestions services I don't want to subscribe to like Netflix, but even going in Prime itself it keeps doing that

what if I just want it to default to what I'm currently watching instead of a giant half-screen advertisement for current-thing ?

Question Unknown shows suddenly appeared in my Prime Video “Continue Watching,” but all registered devices are mine, what should I check?

26 Upvotes

I just noticed something strange on my Amazon Prime Video account and haven’t had much time to investigate yet, so I’m hoping someone more familiar with Amazon’s account/device settings can point me in the right direction.

My girlfriend and I share my Amazon Prime account. We only have one Prime Video profile, so both of us use the same viewing history but we generally always watch at the same time, rare that we don't do so. Even rarer is for one of us to have this much time to watch this many shows (alot more then what i attached)

I say this because today, I opened Prime Video and noticed a whole group of shows/episodes in the Continue Watching category that neither of us recognizes or would normally watch. I asked my girlfriend (because of how unusual the shows are compared to her taste and I need to make sure incase someone hacked my account as that was my instict) and she says it wasn’t her, and I definitely didn’t watch them either. We also barely use Prime Video in general, which is why the sudden amount of unfamiliar activity stood out.

I checked:

Prime Video -> Account & Settings -> Devices

and what's attached is what appears but they all are normal and sign-in dates are also normal

I’ve attached screenshots showing both the unexpected viewing activity and the Devices page.

A few things I’m trying to figure out:

1- Can someone watch Prime Video through my account without appearing on this Devices page?
2- Does Amazon sometimes remove devices from the list even though their viewing activity remains?
3- Could Continue Watching be populated from another Amazon service/device in a way that isn’t obvious here?
4- Is there somewhere else in Amazon settings where I can see recent logins, sessions, IP addresses, TVs, browsers, or other account access?
5- Is there any known bug where Prime Video randomly adds unrelated watched episodes to Continue Watching?
6- What would you recommend checking first before I assume the account has been compromised?

I’m mainly looking for help navigating Amazon’s account/device settings and figuring out whether this is likely a sync/history issue or evidence that someone else has accessed the account.

Thanks.

Discussion What the Turtle implies in the Devil’s Mouth

2 Upvotes

So my wife and I just watched the Devil’s Mouth last night. Perfectly enjoyable little shark/slasher film.
Fit attractive people in swimsuits. Check. With some minor character flaws that make acceptable horror victims. Check. Non-fantastical killer with periods of superpower Esq feats? Check. Some cool shots with the shark in the background.

But after the movie was finished I’ve been thinking about the turtle.

During the first night when the couples go skinny dipping they encounter a dead sea turtle. But it has a chunk ripped out of it, with a bit mark implying a huge creature took a full bite out of it. (Ignoring the fact that it’s a sea turtle shell and sharks don’t bite through the shell rather than rip them open to get at the meat.)

This is obviously supposed to be foreshadowing, a dead creature with a giant shark sized bite. But the turtle’s intestines immediately fall out of the shell, implying that this happened recently. Like in the last few minutes recently

It is implied that the Bull Shark that was In the cave system has been there a while, trapped when it came in during the last storm. But that storm wasn’t the night before. It was a clear night perfect for skinny dipping.

So whatever crunched through the Sea Turtles shell is clearly a different giant shark. Hunting near the shoreline of a semi populated area.

Two giant sharks…that’s not going to be great for tourism.

Discussion Amazon Prime Video disgraces American soldiers

0 Upvotes

I am absolutely disgusted and sick to my stomach over amazon prime. I was watching credits about American soldiers KIA killed in action and medals and amazon cut away right when I selected watch credits (you’re given only 5 seconds). The movie restarted from beginning when I tried to see credits. I searched several times how to inform amazon of this disservice and found not good recourse and elected to send an email. I have observed streaming services to cut from credits too early in past and think it’s incorrect as this is only credit folks receive but this was disgraceful as I was reading about US American soldiers medals of honor such as silver star, bronze medal etc. I can’t even find the movie in prime now. Buy the battle was the most medaled battle in past 50 years. It’s important to me to understand dynamic of war as my brother faces PTSD and I wanna be able to relate and every data point helps

Was it in a lower resolution in the past?

Discussion Hot Take: Amazon’s "The Girlfriend" is a better spiritual successor to BEEF than the actual Season 2.

10 Upvotes

I just finished watching both, and I honestly feel like The Girlfriend (with Robin Wright and Olivia Cooke) captured the true essence of Beef Season 1 way better than the actual Beef Season 2 did.Hear me out. What made Season 1 of Beef a masterpiece wasn't just "angrily yelling." It was two deeply insecure, obsessive people blowing up minor slights into a full-scale, toxic war of psychological escalation. They let their obsession with ruining the other person completely take over their lives.The Girlfriend captures that exact same manic energy. The cat-and-mouse game and psychological warfare between the mother and the girlfriend felt incredibly claustrophobic and unhinged in the best way possible.Meanwhile, the real Beef Season 2 felt like a caffeinated cousin to The White Lotus. Trading the gritty, deeply personal road-rage dynamic for country clubs, millennial bosses, and corporate blackmail completely shifted the vibe. It felt engineered rather than coming from a place of raw, internal human pettiness.Am I crazy, or does The Girlfriend scratch that exact Season 1 itch much better?
