Can't play from Amazon

Post by DJUnnamable »

When I try to use the amazon in the Web section I get this screen:

We have upgraded and this browser version is no longer supported.

Trying to update the browser crashs MM5

Unfortunately it's baked into MediaMonkey so updating Chrome on your PC won't help. It's a shame Amazon is so restrictive in what they support.

Note that we'll be updating the embedded browser for 5.1.

Cheap shot. And a diversion from the real issue.
Amazon say that they support Chrome version 78 and later.
Chrome 78 was released in October of 2019
If that is true, the real question is why MediaMonkey would be bundling old 3rd party tools, with their bugs and security issues, and which cause breakage of MM5 usage?
Want a dark skin for MM5? This is the one that works best for me .. elegant, compact & clear.

Hi,
Current MM 5.0.4.2690 is based on Chromium 98 and we plan to update in next beta cycle.

Then why isn't it working?
I would test it here, but I don't know how to play from Amazon, do you?
My version of MM5 seems hard coded to Youtube.

Hi,
That is something for dev that work on Chromium implementation can tell. I can't play Music on Amazon either :( but for me it it geo locked.

We confirmed the issues and escalated it so it should get more attention. Be ware that Chromium updates often initially break more than they fix (thus target 5.1), but will see. Finger crossed.
