Amazon "Merv" only with sign language

When I download “Merv” from Amazon (Germany), I automatically get the film with sign language/ASL. If I watch the film directly through Amazon, it’s without...

Sorry, it seems there are two versions of the film on Amazon, and I must have added the wrong one to my watchlist.

I take it all back and retract my statement.

Best regards

Indeed, a lot more stuff on Amazon is getting a sign language version. Normally that’s accompanied by a (not necessarily) white ASL overlay on the billboard under the title ;)

I am curious, is that just certain locations or does it require the added fee to remove ads to get that?

Stan001 I’ve seen it Stateside, and I’ve got an ad-based account there

Ok, thanks. I will watch out for that, as I would not need it.
For Merv, I only get the one movie. So, not sure if it’s a slow rollout or what.

Stan001 note the various permutations of the ASL sign:

Thanks again, I got it now. Use ASL as a search term.
I was more concerned I may run into an issue, as I don’t need those, but they seem few, but I am sure they will expand, and I only use videos available to Prime members (right now) not any added service.
I think now after the holidays unless a deal comes before that I may try for Paramount+ from Amazon.
They currently have a 7-day free trial, but I was hoping for at least 2 to 3 months at a discount.
I was looking at the Apple TV website, but not sure about that. They also have a 7-day free trial, then 12.99 after.
MGM+, $0.99/month for 3 months, then$7.99/month after.

Stan001 that’s the point: unless you’re particularly observant you might unintentionally select the asl version given that Prime chose a non-unified way of signalling the distinction but with a mere semi-random overlay…

If you’re gonna sponge off free trials, I’d wait till mid-season finales ;)
