I think it has been known for a good while that Amazon Prime Video is SD only on system running anything other than Windows and MAC: https://www.primevideo.com/help?nodeId=GUX9FYHU5D8LC9EJ

Is there a way to work around this limit? It'd be a shame having to use a virtual machine running Windows (if it even works) to just watch Prime video.

According to this forum, the following solution might work:

1) Install winehq-staging

2) Install Edge-dev: see this

3) Run Edge:

wine 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge Dev\Application\msedge.exe'

4) Log in to amazon prime video using your newly installed MS Edge browser and HD could work

Let me know if this works....

I've been searching a solution for a while, and this method once worked for me:

  1. Install Wine staging version 6.4 with sudo apt install winehq-staging=6.4
  1. Download Chrome 86.0.4240.75 Official build 64-bit Portable (can be found here: https://www.filepuma.com/download/google_chrome_64bit_86.0.4240.75-26781/) and run the .exe with wine

  2. Access and log in in Prime Video and the HD streaming should work
