Re: HBO Max is Now Included in Most TV Packages!

I have to say I lije Sky and have been a customer since forever.

 

The HBO launch is truly awful on a Sky+HD box!

 

Just a long list which you have to scroll through.  No ability to put a search string like the new Paramount addition.

 

Cannot use the general search box to find anything on HBO. Basically useless I'm afraid. 😞

You can't sign into any apps throught a Sky+ box. Only Q/Glass/Stream.

 

You're limted to a subset of content made available to you through your + box.

As with all similar apps -  only *some* content is accessible via On Demand

The pre-release info for HBO Max said All content would be available through Vod.

Usually you would be correct @r0cketscience but that might not be the case with HBO Max where all content should be available.

Subtitles not working properly.

When there are 2 lines of them, the 1st line is partially hidden by the 2nd one and difficult to  make out.

Never seen this on any other channel before.

Excellent! There's quite a bit of extra content that wasn't there earlier.

Yes, you're correct. There are only 14 (out of 15) episodes listed. Hopefully it's noticed and added.

There is a separate Tile for The Pitt with ASL which does have all 15 episodes listed.

The ASL version seems to have 2 x 7ams and is missing one of the later hours. It feels very messy but hopefully they will.sort it out.
