Thanks. I’ll have to watch for it. Right now only available for purchase in the US. Looks to be a good show though.
its avalible in europe on amazon try uing a vpn maybe?
Thanks. Please forgive my ignorance. I connected to my VPN in the UK but Amazon still pulls US search results. Is that because my account is US based or can I somehow change that?
You still need to switch the region in AnyStream as well. Just enabling the UK vpn server isn't enough. You need to tell AnyStream to load the UK region too.
Would be better if we could change regions via a button at the top of amazon tab to like uk, prime, us, etc
<snip>
2) for the region change to take actual effect in AnyStream WITHOUT having to restart the software?
That still requires going into settings. The ideal situation here is NOT to have to go into settings for any reasonYou can technically do that already: just remove prime from providers then re-add it. The short of it, it needs a complete site reload.
1) implement a region swap button/drop-down/whatever in the top bar (same level as the downloadables button) and
You still need to be logged in and having your vpn active. You're missing the point. The entire suggestion is about being (once logged in) being able to swap the AS region and have it take a effect without going through settings. That's it. This changes nothing about having to login at least once.
i get what you're saying just fine. The button/drop-down at the top would be no different from having a copy of the drop-down that's currently in settings and also being accessible at the top. That's it. Everything else stays the same, except for having it take effect without doing a software restart. You still need to have the vpn set to the proper region first, before you change it in AS. That's unchanged.
I agree...I switch region depending on content available...for example it is the first of the month (that is usually when AP drops or adds movies/TV shows) so I will go and get what is available in each region...UK,DE,US,CA. This for me is would be a main feature, not a one time setup setting.True, but I think it's actually a good suggestion to be able to swap region without going into settings and doing a program restart for it to take effect.
@Prospere just a thought here. Considering some need a vpn for certain downloads, is it technically possible to:
1) implement a region swap button/drop-down/whatever in the top bar (same level as the downloadables button) and
2) for the region change to take actual effect in AnyStream WITHOUT having to restart the software?

There's someone getting the point
Easy fix
Settings > checkbox marked 'show region switcher art the top'
unless checked, doesn't show a copy of this switcher at the top so only people that know what that setting is useful for will enable is and get to see the switcher
