About 2 months ago, Amazon Prime Video (APV) streaming stopped working for Linux<br>
devices. Seems that Flash 11.2.x doesn't have the DRM necessary (OSX and Windows<br>
have Flash 11.7.x). Most Android devices aren't working anymore either.<br>
<br>
I currently have an XBMC/Linux machine (same one I demo'd at ALE-NW in June)<br>
connected to the TV, so it can't playback APV either, but I'm very willing to<br>
use a Plex client and run a Plex Media Server - PMS - on another machine (cough<br>
Win7) on the network to handle APV content.<br>
<br>
Anyone think this mix has any chance of working?<br>
Amazon --> Win7/PlexServer --> Linux/PlexClient --> TV<br>
<br>
Or should I give up, purchase a Roku3, and install PMS to let the Roku access<br>
local media? The Roku has an Amazon Prime app built-in already, so just local<br>
media access is an issue.<br>
<br>
Will it work?<br>
