What's Going On With AMAZON Season

CAN’T WIN! Why does this happen when I let StreamFab Update. Can I get the OLDER ONE THAT WORKED BACK?
OK, I followed this recommended “Fix” by turning off (Auto Analyze Videos) that was mentioned in this post. “Now with version 6.2.6.1, the analysis works again, but only one season is displayed.” Hey Thanks BUT when I Analyze the season I want to download it downloads in bad quality (3135kbs instead of the usual 10,000kbs) which equals about a 1gig file instead of 3.88gig which is what I download with (Auto Analyze Turned On).

Amazon rolled out several changes!!
Older versions of streamfab won’t even work on Amazon.
Yes, it only gets one season at a time, but it does work!

As for low kbs, I don’t know, someone else may, but I don’t recall ever getting 10,000 kbs.
I don’t think I ever got higher the 5,000 kbs.
So maybe someone else can tell or explain to you about that?

Stan001 It turns out after many tests that the low Bit-rate ones are if I download fro MHz. And only from the newest season 3 of Pagan Peak. WTF? Spent an hour chasing this down, lol. Sorry for the bother.

Also about the Bite-rate media info shows 9306 kb/s on the high definition CB downloads from Amazon. Just not some files from MHz. Who knew?

a) never “let” Streamfab update (mine never auto updates; but never use the built in update tool); use the download copy from website, and keep in case you need to roll back - have the last 10 versions in my downloads folder
b) series still working for me in US/noVPN; Prime HD/full subscription
c) the bitrate varies by title, as ever, as I’m sure you know; some PRIME video stuff is lower bitrate and small files (e.g., Stargate SG1), while others like FALLOUT will have high bitrate.

Sorry; just a random comment, which probably is no help. Sorry.

simchris Thanks , I am turning it OFF now.

Yes, Amazon works fine otherwise; it just does one season at a time of shows.

I think I said before I actually got to like it, and then just in streamfab with the Amazon site open, just select season 1, to analyze season 1, then select from the Amazon website season 2 to get season 2, and then analyze, etc.
analyzing is much faster, doing just one season.

I also do think, like you say, simchris, movies may have higher bit rates. Maybe I’m trying the wrong movies.
And never seen anything close to 10,000 kbs for shows, again, maybe I’m doing the wrong shows.
