Can't play 1883

[ronharp1]

Paid for Paramount+ but prime will not play 1883 with message about device problem. It did work with episodes 1 and 2. No changes to device.

I believe you cannot get Paramount+ shows on a Hopper via Prime, only Prime centric programming, like Bosch for example, Ep 1 and 2 of 1883 were available free of charge to everyone, that might be the difference.

I did pay for a subscription to Paramount+ on Prime. Seems I should get Paramount programming. Guess I'll wait to see for workaround. Thanks

It is called buy a Roku ( or Fire, Apple, Shield, etc).

Also, see if your TV already has a app for Prime.

Hopper 3 will not play Paramount+ throught Prime Video

 

[ronharp1]

I suspect it has to do with the Hopper because it plays through prime using my computer.

Roku is the way to go. I use it for Netflix, Amazon Prime, Peacock, Discovery Plus, HBO Max and Hulu. This is the best device for playing all services.

Roku UI is much better that Fire stick’s. You can rearrange the apps any way you want. Fire stick shows about 6 tiny app icons at top then mostly Amazon movies. if you have to pick one device, go with Roku.

For my FireStick I use the voice feature for everything. To me it is the quickest to get what I want.

Even Dish Anywhere?

My Nvidia Sheild Pro will totally disagree with this

And my Apple TV 4K would disagree as well.

Why does Paramount give a flip how we obtain their programs as long as we pay for them?

Paramount doesn't care, Amazon doesn't either. It's just that when you subscribe to Paramount+ through Amazon it is a side load of Paramount+ not part of Prime. The Dish receivers that get Amazon Prime can't see that side load because it is not part of Prime. Until DISH adds a Paramount+ app to its group you won't see it. You will need a separate streamer to get it (Roku, AppleTV, Fire TV, Shield.)

Or do without. My choice.
