HD not available on Amazon Prime on Linux for TV Shows #60
Comments
@bugandy Damn you are right! Well this sucks I enjoyed watching The Expanse in HD. I tried changing the window.navigator.platform to 'Win32' and it did not help :( Not sure what to do... I think we are screwed. |
I contacted Amazom customer support this is what they said.
|
I also get answers like this when HD disappear for fist time. I think they think Linux user are all pirates and all pirates use Linux for bypass content protection and record it ... I fear hope be vain and unique solution for we is buy a Roku or Google Chrome-cast, unless we found a working way to anonymize browser in "arms race" with Amazon developer... |
I tried to get this working :( i created a new branch a4dfc15 I found the javascript player file and found this
So naturally I added a.Linux to the array I thought that was easy but... when I do a url request intercept i get a bunch of errors :( so back to square one.
|
I was able to bypass the CORS check by setting the "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" header using the following code: However Amazon Video is still only playing in 720p. |
Today I play Amazon and it's not in HD. |
Since yesterday I can't view anything in HD in amazon, nor in QTWebFlix neither in Waterfox.
I try with a pc-windows connect over same IP address, HD is available on it.
I try to change various user agent but nothing happened, I suspect Amazon identify me as Linux user through another way, do you have same issue?
Or do you have HD1080 over linux/qtwebflix working in TV Shows?
It not Just qtwebflix problem, HD also not working in waterfox, but I'm not sure if it's for all Linux user or just myself.
Maybe some another way qtwebflix (and other browser) identify itself as qtwebflix/linux other than user agent and this is source of problem?
For example I try "window.navigator.platform" and return "Linux x86_64", both waterfox and qtwebflix, maybe Amazon use this way to ban Linux user?
Maybe a way (legal) to spoofing it?
