When converting and syncing, be wary of the comparatively small 8 GB of storage on your Kindle Fire – don’t copy too

many videos! The Kindle Fire will play MP4 and VP8 format videos.

Using Amazon Prime, meanwhile, you can stream movies and TV shows with the Prime Instant Video service, choos-

ing from thousands of videos. Unlimited streaming is offered, while choices can be made based on what people

nearby are watching. The typical Amazon recommendations are also provided. Note that in addition to the instant

video option there are movies and videos – typically new and popular titles – that you will need to pay for.

To start watching, open Video > Store, choose the title you’re interested in (checking the reviews and ratings if neces-

sary) and tap the Rental button on the right-hand side. You can also use Add to Watchlist to come back to it another

time, while More Purchase Options offers a 24 Hour HD Rental and a Buy option to keep the video in your Amazon

Cloud.

Once the purchase is made, you can begin enjoying the lm or TV show of your choice!

5.5 Advanced Media Player Settings

While using the native media player app on your Kindle Fire you might feel the need to alter some settings. Separate

advanced options are provided for the Music and Video players.
