Do you get similar problems with other streaming & OnDemand services?

That would be an excellent test of whether this is an app-specific issue, or something with your connectivity.

Sounds like you're reporting that the Prime app's streaming is dropping while you're watching a programme? If so, does the same thing happen with other streaming apps or any OnDemand services?

Your 360 connects to these services via your homehub, which is connected either wirelessly or via an Ethernet cable. How is yours connected? If you're using wireless, then checking the network connections diagnostics is the next port-of-call.

So as per my previous post...

1: How is your 360 connected to your homehub, wired or wireless?

2: Do you get similar problems with other streaming & OnDemand services?

3: Can you follow Settings > Network > Diagnostics, and post what is reported?

Hello @scenic.

 

Welcome back to the community page, thank you for posting on here.

 

I am sorry that you are having connection issues.

 

I was able to locate your account, I am unable to see any known errors on your Hub. Are you able to set up a BMQ chart to show the dropouts? 

 

Many thanks,

Hello @scenic,

 

Thank you for this information.

 

Have you tried seeing if there is an update needed on the app? Have you emailed amazon about this?

 

Many thanks,

no problems with catchup or other streaming but talking to other users it apears they have the same problem so i am assuming its an app problem

ie. compatability with virgin box

Hi Scenic, 

Thanks for your post, 

I am sorry that you are having an issue with the prime app, is it only at 10 pm that this issue appears?

apart from then is it fine?
Is it while watching something or browsing or both?
