Channel Issues & Questions

Prime video is now available in Argentina but I can not get the app in my roku player. How can install amazon prime video in my roku players? Is there a hidden trick I should apply?

Thanks

Martin

There are two parts to extending a streaming app to a new country.

1. The owner of the channel enables its use in the country.
2. The owner of the channel produces and releases a version of its channel app to run on each streaming platform in that country (Roku, Chromecast, Apple TV, etc.)

I'm guessing #2 hasn't happened for Roku yet.

Thanks for the post.

As @makaiguy mentioned, please be aware that channel availability/access on Roku devices will vary from region to region. A Roku device will work in any location, however, channels may not be available on your device in that location, based on each channel provider's discretion. For more information, you'd want to contact any specific channel/service provider to inquire further about whether they offer their channel/service on the Roku platform in your region. 

Thanks,
Danny
