Amazon Prime Video: audio, subtitles, 5.1 and Dolby Atmos

Don't spend too long hunting for Dolby Vision content, though, as there's only a tiny amount of it on Prime Video. You'll just have to suck it and see for those. Thankfully, there's an HDR badge to look out for when you click through to the content itself, but there are no icons for Dolby Vision or HDR10+. When typing in ‘HDR’ it recommends plenty of HDR content but a fair bit that's SDR too. Amazon’s search function is also not reliable. HDR video – including Dolby Vision (on compatible televisions, such as LG TVs) and HDR10+ (on Samsung TVs) – is a little more difficult to spot than 4K, as there isn’t a set category for it on the main screen.

You can only tell for sure if a TV show or movie is 4K by clicking on it. However, the search results might not be complete.

Similarly, you can search for ‘4K’ or ‘Ultra HD’ in the search bar to bring up the top-resolution videos. On Amazon’s TV app for smart televisions there’s a 4K UHD category with some of its most recent, or promoted, content. With all Prime Video subscribers given access to 4K Ultra HD content, it would be remiss not to make the most of it. Amazon Originals, however, don't suffer from this issue – all episodes available to Prime Members from the get-go without having to pay extra.

The more recent series eventually become free but they can take a while. You might get seasons three and five of Line of Duty, for example, but you'd have to purchase or rent the others to watch the lot. However, just because a show is part of a Prime Video subscription, it doesn’t mean that each and every episode or series will be. If there’s a blue Prime banner in the top left corner of the show’s icon, that means the series is free to stream with your subscription. Amazon Prime Video: buy or stream?Īmazon Prime Video has a mixture of content available to purchase and to stream with your Video subscription - but how do you know which is which? So, you can keep the 18s flowing on your main TV but lock it down to just PGs on the kids' tablet, for example.ĭo bear in mind that from Fire TV kit and Xboxes, this will have to be done on the devices themselves. Once set, you can restrict access to certain content based on the age certificate of that film or show and also by the device that's being used. You can do this on the web by going into the 'Settings' of the Prime Video section of Amazon’s site, and also in the mobile app's settings. The solution is to set up a four-digit PIN. Parental controls are also important if don’t want your little ones coming across adult content. You can stream up to three films or TV shows (although not the same one) simultaneously from the same Amazon Prime Video account on different devices. You'll find a drop-down menu where it says your user name and it's from there that you can add, remove and edit profiles. Kids profiles offer a more kid-friendly selection of films and shows but also allow parents to limit purchases and see what's being viewed from behind the scenes. You can have up to six on one account and they can be set as either adult or kids profiles. The answer is to create different user profiles. Amazon Prime Video: profiles & parental controlsĪmazon Prime Video will recommend TV shows and films based on your past viewing history, but what if you’re really into crime thrillers, your other half loves romantic comedies and the kids love cartoons? Well worth a look, particularly when it comes to sport. The prices vary according to the third-party service but you'll often find some exclusive deals, such introductory prices or extended free trials, if you sign up through Prime Video.
