  • Hartzu Hartzu (@Hartzu) reported

    I have issues with the new HBO Max. I have 1080p-capable projector and home theatre setup with 5.1 audio (no Atmos). I'm using the Playstation 4 HBO Max app. Why does the 1080p image quality look so poor and why are there no 5.1 sound at all? @HBOMaxNordic @HBOMaxHelp

  • stilintoportait mel (@stilintoportait) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp oh, fyi, i have lightning fast wifi and just now it gave me a “cannot connect” error message when i opened the app. at home.

  • Simply_safiyyah AFRICAN EMPRESS 👑 (@Simply_safiyyah) reported

    Is hbomax down or something? It won’t work for me? @hbomax

  • MinvstrD Zaphod (@MinvstrD) reported

    @hbomax Is the absolute worst piece of garbage app you can put on a TV. If you're lucky enough to get it to work, it is glitchy and will quit playing randomly. Hasnt even opened in 3 days. Should get a pro-rata since its not a useable format.

  • Jiles Jiles (@Jiles) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp ya site been saying “can’t play title” for 2 days now on my pc. Fix it!

  • StephenATurner Stephen A Turner (@StephenATurner) reported from Owensboro, Kentucky

    @ScottKacsmar Now if only @hbomax had an app that didn’t have an issue during AND in between every single episode, we’d be cookin!

  • crissyb123_ Cristian Blackwell (@crissyb123_) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp That didn’t work. It still won’t let me stream. It seems like a bug or glitch in the ps4 app

  • yourlittldogtwo ..𝙆..𝙀..𝙈..𝙀..𝙄..𝙐..𝙉.. (@yourlittldogtwo) reported

    Day 2 of not being able to sign into @hbomax. Doesn't anyone else have this problem?

  • tweetforall Tweeting My Mind (@tweetforall) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Hi. I cant download Dune to my ipad. Had no problem downloading an ep of Succession.

  • NativeAmText Michael Leroy Oberg (@NativeAmText) reported

    @hbomax´ s documentary on January 6 is truly terrible, allowing the members of the mob to recite their delusions without contradiction.

  • BlerdMinusFear Blerd Without Fear!™ believes in #ComicsForAll (@BlerdMinusFear) reported

    @RyuDaBurninator @hbomax I haven't run into that issue so far

  • kierancuIkins king of the rats megan (@kierancuIkins) reported

    @paddysrules @succession @hbomax HELP

  • maceochi Ian Mac Eochagáin (@maceochi) reported from Lohja, Uusimaa

    @kpwilkman @FinlandExplorer @hbomax Low rates, no time to correct mistakes, poor project management, an agency that doesn’t care about quality… lots of possible reasons.

  • itsmdou unknown 🐝 (@itsmdou) reported

    @KingRichardFilm @beyoncenumbers @hbomax We need the song we’re BeyHydrated please HELP

  • maceochi Ian Mac Eochagáin (@maceochi) reported from Lohja, Uusimaa

    @FinlandExplorer @hbomax Sounds likely! You have to wonder how much (little) subtitlers are paid, how much pressure they are under, and how much time they have to check their work for mistakes.

  • GahnastyGahnorc GahnastyGahnorc (@GahnastyGahnorc) reported

    @hbomax think y'all can fix "Wolverine" on HBO? Trying to watch but getting "can't play, having a problem with this title". Only one. Thanks

  • BogdanMarinov Bogdan Marinov (@BogdanMarinov) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I am using an Amazon Firestick 4K TV and when I try to sign in it says Oops! Something Went Wrong

  • famoussscrack REAL$limeball 🐍. (@famoussscrack) reported

    @ItsAlrightRaina @HARDWHlTE she wanted $3M per episode & @hbomax didn’t give her the amount she was asking her so there still trying to work out an deal… but my whole thing is she speak on stuff knowing it’s not official yet & when they time comes for it to drop & it don’t it makes her look like a liar 🤭

  • crissyb123_ Cristian Blackwell (@crissyb123_) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp That didn’t work

  • a_v__prince josef gay (@a_v__prince) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I’ve tried all these. bandaid solutions but the site itself is a fully open wound, everyone knows this. HBO Go had the exact same problems. weird to launch a “new” platform to be competitive among streaming services but just copy and paste from a 10 year old flawed product

  • RyuDaBurninator RyuDaBurninator (@RyuDaBurninator) reported

    @BlerdMinusFear @hbomax It be cool if their service didn't buffer every couple of minutes.

  • ikristoph Kristoph (@ikristoph) reported

    @crissyb123_ @HBOMaxHelp Hey @crissyb123_ thank you for sending that video, it's super helpful. Did you try just signing out and back in ( or reinstalling the app ). Did that solve your issue?

  • probheardright LifeRuiner103 (@probheardright) reported

    @TheOnly_Ally @hbomax I wasn't aware of the crash or the special till just now I keep scouring the net for more news on the crash, there's a lot or at least a lot more, abt her over on Reddit She's been around for a long time; a bunch of podcasts took off in the last few months, if you're interested
