I've got seven things you need to know about watching Thursday Night Football on Prime video
including updates from Amazon since the first game number one more details on the built-in
Cloud DVR you set recordings just once and it applies for all Thursday night football games at
least that's how it's supposed to work some people have had trouble it worked okay for me so I've got
these screenshots to share you can go to any game and look for the option to record Thursday night
football and with just one click you should be good to go but what if you don't see this option
click on any NFL game in Prime video and look for the words recordings enabled and if you see this
maybe the DVR was automatically enabled that's my thought and in this case you should be all set as
well with so many people reporting trouble with this issue I don't know why Amazon just
didn't automatically set the DVR for everyone but I'm just a guy on YouTube not a streaming
executive I can tell you that you definitely want to set recordings because that way you can access
access full game replays and also start from the beginning if you join the gameplay number two I'm
going to show you where to find live games and replays this section is brief because on game
days at least Prime video makes it so you can't miss Thursday Night Football it should be at the
top of the home screen and if you scroll down on the Prime video home screen you can also find it
under live and upcoming games some other options for you you can click on the sports tab or search
Thursday Night Football number three add games to your watch list and listen up here because from my
experience with Prime video it looks like you need to do this for individual games I haven't seen
any one click option for the entire season you can add games to your watch list from any device but I
like to do this from a phone let me show you first I'll click find then Sports then the NFL logo and
now all of the upcoming games are displayed and I can click on each of them one by one and add the
games to my watch list just look for the plus sign to do that and when you're ready to view
anything you've added to your watch list whether it's a game or something else head over to the
my stuff tab number four minimizing the live TV streaming delay this is a new quote from Amazon's
FAQ page while all devices have been optimized to give a smooth and clear viewing experience some
devices offer less delay between the live game and your stream and here Amazon is recommending
using a Fire TV Apple TV iOS or Android device interesting that fire TV's main competitor was
not included in this list of devices I don't know about you but I am sticking with my Roku
let's move on and we'll move on to number five are you having audio or streaming issues with
Thursday night football for audio issues Amazon is suggesting that you exit the stream and then
enter it again I'm sure you tried that for video check your internet speed the recommendation here
is a minimum download speed of 1 megabits second for SD and 5 for HD and if the video is choppy
Amazon says in an FAQ page that you can turn your TV's motion setting to off you're going
to want to change this from your TV settings menu not through prime number six contacting customer
support now I know the tips in this video will not help everyone so I'll drop a link below to an
Amazon support page and that way you can chat or get a callback from Amazon you'll also find these
Support options at the bottom of the game page from either a computer or a phone or from a TV
set you can click need help and then scan the QR code with your phone number seven is more viewing
options Thursday Night Football is included with the Prime Video subscription and if you don't
have Prime you can get a 30-day free trial or just watch the games on Twitch yet twitch is streaming
Thursday Night Football free of charge and NFL plus is a low cost option for mobile devices
and if you're local team is playing that game will also be shown on a broadcast TV network
check local listings hope this was helpful enjoy the game and I thank you for watching
