Are you tired of blurry, pixelated videos on Amazon Prime Video? Do you want to learn how to improve the quality of your streaming experience?
Look no further! In this tutorial, we’ll discuss some tips and tricks to help you make your Amazon Prime Video better quality.
Check Your Internet Connection
One of the most common reasons for poor video quality is a weak internet connection. Check your internet speed using an online speed test tool.
Amazon recommends a minimum internet speed of 1 Mbps for standard definition (SD) streaming and 5 Mbps for high definition (HD) streaming. If your internet connection is slow, consider upgrading your plan or connecting to a different network.
Adjust Video Quality Settings
Amazon Prime Video offers several video quality options that can be adjusted based on your internet speed and device capabilities. To change the video quality settings, follow these steps:
- Open Amazon Prime Video on your device.
- Select the movie or TV show you want to watch.
- Click on the “Settings” icon in the lower right corner of the screen.
- Select “Stream & Download”.
- Choose the desired video quality option from the list.
If you have a slow internet connection, selecting a lower video quality option can improve playback performance.
Clear Cache and Cookies
Over time, cache and cookies can accumulate in your browser or app, slowing down performance and affecting video quality. Clearing cache and cookies can help improve streaming performance. To clear cache and cookies in popular browsers:
