Re: HBO GO Standalone Streaming Service Coming in 2015

Has anyone figured out how to sign in to anther device after subscribing to HBO first via Apple? I used my itunes password, but that's not working via an Android device now. I don't think I have a separate password for HBO Now, but I tried the 'forgot my password' & never got an e-mail.

Maybe I have to un-subscribe to Apple and re-subscribe now directly through the app?

You DO get a different HBONow password. I also didn't get the password reminder and I emailed them and they made it get to me through email. I signed up through iTunes.

Yeah, when you set up your HBO Now account, you should be setting it up separately from iTunes. Though the passwords can be the same, of course.

Yeah but they have a glitch in that send a password reminder doesn't work. When I wasn't getting the reminder I emailed them and they told me to click send a reminder but also provided the necessary link to reset.

I just received a promotional email from Amazon saying it is available now for Fire stick and FireTV. However, reading reviews on it, it has apparently been available since mid-July to "people in the know." Some say it is great, some say app interface is shakey. It has one month free trial then $14.99/month.

I have my Fire stick on a secondary TV, and would rather watch on my main TV which has Roku and Tivo on it. I may wait to see if one of those offer it, or reallocate things.

for those of you who are using HBO NOW, are you able to get 5.1 sound on the Amazon Fire TV & Google Chromecast?

Nope, I use it on both devices & it's only 2.0. Not only that, but the frame rate seems really slow.

I used it on Apple TV during the exclusive period & am certain it was 5.1. Plus the picture was much smoother. I really don't want to go back to Apple TV, but guess I will if they don't fix this by the time Game of Thrones returns.

Re: HBO GO Standalone Streaming Service Coming in 2015

Considering HBO Go has 5.1, this seems more like an oversight than an actual longterm issue.

I'm using a free trail this month and am really not impressed with the video quality, the Fire TV stick looks like it drops frames, especially noticeable during horizontal pans (while Amazon Prime has flawless video on the stick, not surprisingly) and when I try HBO Now on Roku, a lot of shows have a jittery picture frequently. There is great content, but I'm not going to pay $14.99 a month until they can improve the video (I wish they would have this on PS3, I don't know what the hold up is.

Re: HBO GO Standalone Streaming Service Coming in 2015

It's Official: 'The Larry Sanders Show' Coming to HBO Go and HBO Now in September
All six seasons of the comedy will be available on HBO Go and HBO Now beginning Sept. 23.

The Larry Sanders Show is (finally) returning to HBO.

Six months after the death of series star, creator and executive producer Garry Shandling, his critically acclaimed comedy will be available in its entirety on HBO Now, HBO Go and HBO on Demand beginning Friday, Sept. 23. The series will also come to HBO Comedy on Sept. 26.

Shandling passed away suddenly at the age of 66 in March, and questions soon arose about why the beloved series was not available to watch via HBO's many platforms. The series, which centered on a late-night talk show host, was one of HBO's first original series and ran for six seasons in the early to mid '90s.

Ok good. How can they not share with someone else? Is it like Vudu thing, invite? It's a coworker and we're friendly and share GoT very much in common and want to make sure no breach of security measures or something. She only gets it by illegal means I believe...

Re: HBO GO Standalone Streaming Service Coming in 2015

I'm not sure what the maximum is for accounts, I'm assuming there may be a limit. It's not an invite, it's a straight up password. The Andy Samberg one that was given out as a joke worked years later for me (didn't use it since it was on the phone though).

Wait - my second yes should be a no. The passwords aren't non-shareable. If multiple people have the login info, they should be able to use it.
