Have fun, i be pulling me hair out trying to set up a smart tv!! :bigcry3:

Wifi or hard wired ?
If you're doing it over wifi, you may not have a strong enough signal, or you might be getting the occasional signal drop out which will cock it up.

Wifi, and the signal is perfect, watched the UFC last night for the first time in a long time, no problem :)

The problem i got is i bought a Samsung, whole reason i got one is because of Amazon prime, and it appears there is a software glitch that amazon is sorting out, videos won't play :( Aparently will be sorted by the 22nd, if it ain't the tv is going back!! Annoyed!!

You say the signal is perfect, but what speeds are you getting?
And is it intermittent ?

Buffered twice in four hours of UFC last night, spoke to Amazon support, and Samsung suport yesterday, seams some of the new Samsung range Amazon has a software problem, google it. Question is do i take the tv back as Amazon is the reason i bought it?

Oh I see.
Are there any makes that the app works on ?
We've got a sony Bravia in the bedroom (smart) but I haven't got an amazon membership to test it for you.

Yes, there just be a software glitch, with some of the new Samsung range, not all of it, and works on all other makes.
