Just hooked up my new Panasonic DMP-BD65 and was really looking forward to trying some Amazon VOD. Unfortunately, it never connects at more than 2/4 green bars. This, when I have verified I am getting 5+ Mbps at the Ethernet to player and Netflix HD is fine.
Called Amazon and Tech said it is a known issue with Panasonic players. Tech also said the problem is on Amazon's end and it has been occurring for "some time now". When pressed, Tech said it has been happening for weeks+. Tech further said Amazon is "working on it", but provided no estimate of when the issue would finally be fixed. Not sure if this problem occurs with TVs with VIERA CAST as well? Anybody care to comment?
This is very disappointing. I bought a new player with VIERA CAST specifically so I could use Amazon VOD a la carte and now it won't even work until who knows when. If this was Panasonic's problem, this player would be going back.
