    Amazon Amazon Downloads only with AAC Stereo now also has affected German Prime Accounts!

    Now ist has reached Germany. I am only able to download videos with H264 and AAC 2.0 Stereo Audio, even older Videos which I could download with H265 and EAC 5.1 640 kb last week!

    It's been like this for a while, Amazon is gradually converting its catalog to the new DRM.

    The sound problem is due to Streamfab, not Amazon.​

      it is.
      6.1.6.7 downloads old videos normally. in h265 and eac3 5.1.
      Newer versions only aac 2.0. either encoding or downloading.​

        Older videos seem to be getting the new DRM updates now too, and 6.1.6.7 is failing on them also. Just tested some episodes from Clarkson's Farm Season 2 (2023). 6167 failed, and 6177 only gets AAC! And this is n the US.

          It's Amazon. The Competitor is also hit with it, I haven't been able to download higher quality audio with them, they're also restricted to AAC 2.0. According to them, Amazon is making changes. Apparently the audio is there, they just can't grab it.

          Weird thing is, I can still download EAC3 with 6.1.6.1 and 6.1.6.6 (for whatever little videos that can be downloaded). I tested those videos with the competitor and they only have AAC available while Streamfab downloads EAC3. So right now if a video on Amazon that can be downloaded with the aforementioned versions I'd download the audio with Streamfab, download the video with the competitor, then multiplex with MKVTool.

              Of course they're old contents. The point is, the competitor is also having audio issues, on ALL contents, same as Streamfab 6.1.7.5 and after. But for now two versions can download at least SOME quality audios.

                6167 stopped connecting to video, no download. Newest version now downloads however as in this thread, can only download AAC stereo. Looks like Google is countering everything dvdfab does.

                  Have any of you all paid the 3.00 extra for no ads? As soon as I did that all my audio issues disappeared. Same with Netflix you need the top 22.05 a month subscription to get Atmos.

                    I do pay the 3.00 extra, that has nothing to do with it.
                    On a side note, now that they have done so (charged extra) anyone else notice they no longer have the no-rush shipping option to get digital credits?

                      No I haven't. Why should I? I can't load anything without Recode. It doesn't make sense to me...

                        I haven't seen that in a while.
                        Win11 Pro 22H2, no bloatware, no spyware, no crapware, no TPM, no Secure Boot, no MS account. And yes, you can dual boot 7 and 11.

                          Is this with SF or AS? I just can stomach the re-encoding processing times with SF. In over 35 years of installing Windows and Office I just can't handle creeping progress bars any more. It used to put me to sleep, now I just want to punch the monitor.

                            I just love vBulletin. Been getting this error a lot lately. Got it with the post above. Still saves, just barfs in the process. Maybe they updated the forums to 6.1.7.7? Now back to our regular programming....

                              It just means that someone is saving their message at the very same time as you. They are using an older version of VBulletin, probably from before multitasking was invented. Don't worry about it, your message has been saved, don't save it again as there is no one around to delete the dupe.
