Here is the list of the best software to record video streaming from Amazon Prime Video on your Windows 11 or 10 PC.

1.  Audials Movie

Audials Movie offers users many features so that you can easily capture Amazon Prime Video or Amazon Freevee in MP4, MKV, WMV, AVI and watch the movies or series later. 

Audials Movie enables you to save videos in HD automatically in the optimal frame rate. If you activate the GPU encoding, Audials Movie will use the maximum performance of your computer to provide a high quality video that you will enjoy. After the video is recorded, the tool will automatically search for movie tags. 

If you do not want to watch the video while it is recorded, then save time! You can play it back and record it in 2x speed. With the batch recording function Audials Movie will save all movies you desire for you overnight. 

Remove any parts from your video you do not need with the video editor and cropper. An automatic ad detection automatically removes Amazon Freevee ads.

Furthermore, Audials Movie is not just for Amazon Prime. You can also use it for your Hulu, Netflix, Disney+ or other subscriptions

You are skeptical when some manufacturers of recording tools ask you to enter your Amazon Video login data into their software? Then don’t worry! Audials Movie will not ask you for your credentials because you can play back Amazon Prime in your browser, as usually.

2. StreamFab Amazon Downloader

StreamFab Amazon Downloader by DVDFab records series and movies from Amazon Prime Video in the MP4 or MKV format and optionally adds subtitles and removes the ads if you have a free Amazon Prime Video account. With the batch mode, you can record all episodes of a series simultaneously. To start recording, open the VIP Services menu item and click Amazon. Log into Amazon Prime in the StreamFab software, search for the video and start recording. That means that the user is forced to enter his streaming credentials, otherwise the software will not work because there is no alternative recording method.

  • saves subtitles
  • batch recorder for series

It is an option to record the subtitles, too. The search function of PlayOn could be a problem for those who do not like to entrust their Amazon credentials to anybody because PlayOn will ask you to do so, otherwise recording is not possible.

4. Wondershare Filmora

Furthermore, we would like to present you the Wondershare Filmora screen recording software that can record any video content that is played back on your screen in MP4, WMV, MKV, AVI, and many other formats. Its user interface can seem a bit confusing to a beginner, as the screen recording feature is not really highlighted. 

To start recording, click Record in the upper left menu and then choose Record PC Screen. Wondershare Filmora will start the Amazon Video app and show you a small recording window where you can set the screen recording area and the settings. Click the red button to start and F9 to stop recording. You can add captions, exclamation marks and icons to the video. However, this should be relevant for few people

A disadvantage of Wondershare Filmora is that it records in realtime, so recording will take the same time as needed for playing back a video. Further features that make recording more agreeable like batch recording are not included in Wondershare Filmora.

Pros:

  • recording videos in various formats
  • universal screen recorder

Cons:

  • confusing user interface
  • records in 1x speed only
  • no further features that make recording more comfortable
