Describe the bug

No error is returned, but when I select "Rings of Power," the list populates as empty. Can watch other recent shows (i.e. The Boys) with no issues, but it will not load the episode list for ROP.

Same behavior on rpi4 but with a right click on main title and click on refresh menu element first two episodes appear correctly

[cpassuel]

I have an issue too when I try to view Rings of Power from my watchlist: I soon as I select the Rings of Power folder, I have an error. It works ok when I search Rings of Power and I enter its folder.

Here is the error

When I llook at the related code in web_api.py, I suspect one of the branch of the if statement returns a wrong value for entry

        for key in nodeKeys:
            if key in self._videodata:
                entry = deepcopy(self._videodata[key])
            else:
                entry = node[key]
            title = entry.get('title', nodeName)

[xukashi]

same here

[cpassuel]

I did more tests to see what happens: When I try to enter Rings of Power folder from my watchlist, the branch entry = node[key] is taken (else branch) and the key is "trailer" and node{"trailer"] returns a bool instead of a dict.

The value "trailer" for key seems weird, it should be more like "amzn1.dv.gti.78b28d61-397d-87df-03d4-9bcde012a156". I don't know if it's a bug in the plugin or incorrect data in Amazon Prime service.

I remember I had this issue too when I added the rings of power trailer in my watchlist

[jodett]

I guess it's the same problem with "Mrs Maisel Season 4", there are also all episodes missing.

[agolks]

when i try to curl the request url seen in log file, the title list in the result json is empty. for "the boys" this list is filled.

[cpassuel]

My issue is fixed now, so it was probably an incorrect data in Prime Video. Maybe your issue is not the same as mine, you have to check the log file for more details

[agolks]

well, watch list or search list folder is still empty at my side.

[loleq]

I was able to workaround by changing the Prime Video language to english. When language was set to polish, I got following error:

[agolks]

worked for me, too, little "simplier". just needed to activate the new web api access thingy.

[nickschurch]

I have the same problem using the standard amazonVOD interface - no episodes being shown. Enabling webAPI does not solve the issues. The relevant error from the logs appears to be...

I looked for a setting somewhere to set the Prime Video language, but I couldn't find that option. @loleq can you point me to it?

[lhassell]

Can confirm web API fixed the problem on 2015 Shield running Kodi 19.4

[lhassell]

I seem to have spoken too soon. Will no longer load ROP in the addon.

[Varstahl]

Closing as fixed.
