I was just wondering if there was any overall consensus on which apk to use for amazon prime video on the Mi Box as I have read a lot of differing reports. Do any of them work?

I have had it working from the day the Mi Box launched, on two devices. I installed via the XDA thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/shield-tv/development/amazon-prime-video-demand-android-tv-t3278778
The app streams fine, the only "issue" is using the remote control on the app is just ok, but works well enough to stream everything I need.
If you want 1080p with 5.1 you can get it using the Google browser via desktop mode. use the Google browser and change it to desktop mode go to Amazon and sign in then go to your watch list and now you can watch in 1080p. The method is less elegant but will continue to work if Amazon shuts down the apk that works currently on the Shield
*This trick works on tablets and phones as well just follow the same steps
Times like this I'm glad my cheap-ass Smart TV with a TERRIBLE app interface at least has a barebones Amazon Instant Video application built in. It's clunky as crap, but it conquers the whole Amazon hating all things Google issue.
Here's an easy way to install it using #sideloadtag:
