Mythbuntu 11.10
XBMC 2:10.1-4~ppa1~oneiric from the Nathan Renniewaldock repository
Amazon plugin version 0.3.7
beautifulsoup module version 3.0.8
demjson module version 1.4
mechanize module version 0.2.5



Restarting makes no difference for me.



Changing your login information got around the issue? Is that all you changed?

I also have an ubuntu 10.10 machine with the same version of xbmc and plugins. I do not have this problem on that machine. After installing rtmp2.4, the Amazon plugin works great!

I would love to get the Amazon plugin working on my 11.10 machine because that is the one hooked up to my TV Smile

If there is any additional information about my system I can provide to track down the problem, I would be happy to.

Well, I'm using XBMC 11 (Eden) from the following repository: https://launchpad.net/~alexandr-surkov/+archive/xbmc. Note that this is an unstable version with semi-nightly builds. I had problems with the XBMC version from the Nathan Renniewaldock repository.

Right now I do believe my issue is simply that the python bundled with xbmc from the nathan renniewaldock repository was not built with ssl support. I have contacted the maintainer and described the issue. He was going to try and rebuild the package tonight. I'll post back once I have had a chance to update my xbmc and try it out. I'm hoping to keep with a stable install and not pull development libraries onto my htpc.

I am not sure where to jump in here but I have an issue with the Amazon plug-in that is affecting all the of my systems, I have a prime account that I use all the time without issue via the browser, but on my to XP systems and one Win7 laptop using XBMC I can see the entire library and the background graphics are displayed when I make a selection but after one or two attempts I receive a message say that "Playback failed" see the log.

batdevice: see requirement #1 in the first post. you need to update your librtmp or run a nightly build.

It looks like this should be updated in the repository now. My understanding of the issue is that the libssl on ubuntu 11.04+ is not compatible with xbmc dharma's bundled python. Therefore, ssl support is not detected during build configuration, and the python ssl module is not built. To get around this, xbmc was rebuilt, passing a flag that allows it to use an external python (the standard python2.7 included with ubuntu 11.4+). I won't be home for another two days to try it out, but hopefully that solves the ssl/https issue.

I'm fairly new to xbmc. I'm running it on a atv2. I've been able to successfully get Hulu and Free cable working, but i'm having trouble with Amazon.

Every time i launch the video add-on for Amazon i get the following error message "script failed! Plugin.video.amazon"

i've already loaded the rtmpdump/librtmp 2.4 to get Hulu working. Do i need to re-load this file somewhere else or is this a different problem?

I appreciate any help i can get.

Thanks,

Sorry, yes i am. I've entered my email and password in the system>add-ons>enabled add-ons>video add-ons>amazon>configure menu.

Is that the correct place?

- BlueCop - 2011-11-26 19:36

thats correct. you could also use the context menu on the plugin.

if you have verified everything looks correct then post a pastebin link to a log of the failure.

- Acosta2269 - 2011-11-27 18:35

Sorry for noob question....but what is and how do i get a pastebin link to the log of the failure?
