How To Get Amazon Prime Video On Virgin Tivo Box |
Prime and Proper: Here's What You'll Need
- An Amazon Prime Account: This is kind of like the key to the whole operation. If you haven't already embarked on a Prime membership, fear not – there's usually a free trial to test the waters (and by waters, we mean a deluge of fantastic films and shows).
- Your Virgin TiVo Box and Remote Control: Your trusty companions on this journey. Make sure the box is switched on and ready to rumble.
Step-by-Step to Streaming Nirvana
-
The App Awakens: Navigate your way to the Apps & Games section on your Virgin TiVo box. Here's where things can get a little thrilling – if the Prime Video app isn't already downloaded, you might need to unearth it from the depths of the app store. Don't worry, the process is usually pretty painless (and let's be honest, a bit more exciting than, say, watching paint dry).
-
Sign In and Conquer: With the app in your sights, launch it and prepare to be greeted by a login screen. This is where your Amazon account email and password come into play. Type them in with the grace of a seasoned warrior (or, you know, just type them in normally), and voila! You've breached the Prime Video fortress.
-
The spoils of Victory: Now comes the best part – exploration! Prime Video offers a vast library of content, so take some time to browse, search by genre, or get lost in the curated recommendations. With a bit of digging, you're bound to unearth hidden gems and revisit old favorites.
Bonus Tip: For Virgin Media customers with a V6 or 360 box, you can bypass the app altogether! Use the search function on your TiVo and hey presto – Prime Video content appears alongside your usual channels. How cool is that?
