Amazon UK - Smile changes the URL

Amazon UK recently introduced Smile - this enables one to associate a nominated charity with the account, such that Amazon makes a small payment to the charity when one makes a purchase.

The effect of this is to change the base URL used to access the Amazon account. Instead of https://amazon.co.uk the URL is now https://smile.amazon.co.uk.

As a result, when running PlayOn to access Prime Video, the Watchlist and Library are empty.

There is no way to configure PlayOn to use this URL. This needs to be fixed. I will raise a support case, but I thought I would post here to see if other UK users have experienced the same problem.
