I was watching Adventure Time on Hulu and then switched over to Max and... my god. The picture quality is so much worse on Max. For a CARTOON, nonetheless. I honestly feel like I'm watching it in 480p.
On Apple TV I see the exact opposite. There's all kinds of aliasing in Adventure Time on Hulu, but not on HBO Max. In Hulu's favor though, the colors pop way more in the Hulu versions whereas on HBO Max its incredibly muted.
Interesting. I'm sure which device you're using makes a big difference. I'm using the stock Vizio app for Hulu and Chromecasting to the TV for HBO Max. I know Chromecasting in general tends to not result in the best picture quality, but since an HBO Max app is not available on my Roku stick yet, that's basically my only option.
I definitely see the same issue with color range, though.
Sweet! Hair Love was adorable and I'm excited to see what the team can do with longer storylines.
Despite the aliasing, I prefer the Hulu version for the superior colors. The issue with colors on Max isn't confined to just AT, it's across the board. I hope they work out all of these issues before I decide to subscribe again. They're charging the most of any service out there, and providing so much less than most (no 4k, no roku/Fire TV support, muted colors, a pretty much unusable PS4 app etc etc).
They have exactly until I reach the end of the David Tennant era of Doctor Who to get their act together. (Rewatching that one with my daughter.)
Yes buts it's extremely limited also doesn't support HDR last I checked. More info from the Hulu website below
No one has made one yet but we have this thread - JG Quintel's "Close Enough" Finally Has a Home. HBO Max
Anyone else having syncing issues specifically with Close Enough (using Xbox app)? At the halfway point it seems to desync and stay desynced... I watched a movie right after on MAX and tried another show and had no issues. Tried the show on my phone app and it's also ok. Any ideas?
Posted about this in the other thread. Seems like others are having the same problem with episode 2 and 3 on reddit. Seems to be happening on certain devices (Xbox app, iOS devices) so try elsewhere.
Darn... I've had syncing issues with my setup, so wasn't sure if it was a common issue or not. Had it happen on ep 2 and 4 (that is, part 2 of ep 1 and 2) so far. I did find a work around by just casting it, so that works for now.
Aside from HBO proper the only big MAX originals of that scale seem to be their DC properties (Green Lantern, Justice lEague Dark etc) but he'd to know for sure as we haven't gotten trailers to show any of those off yet.
Nothing and on July 31, HBO Go will no longer work on them.
Given that Peacock won't be on either platform at launch it seems to me that this could be a long term dispute. It's possible that neither side will budge until HBO Max and Peacock reach a larger critical mass and they'll have more leverage to negotiate with.
Nope and I doubt they ever will, I'd pay to have a near complete collection yet they don't want my money for some reason.
Why in the hell is it still not possible to view your full list on the Apple TV app.
How many shows are on your list? I can view all of mine, but I only have 40 shows.
I'm going to binge watch a couple of things and cancel in Aug if theres no LG/FIRESTICK/ROKU support by then. But honestly probably won't subscribe again until they get 4K HDR for new releases.
Y-you really want to do that kind of show? You're not going to read the room HBO Max?
oh I'm sure all of the cops in Gotham are a piece of shit.
Winter's a hack so this will probably suck unfortunately.
If it were CBS then fair enough.......but given that it's a streaming show from Terence Winter I feel like we should give it the benefit of the doubt.
Whaaaaa.gif
Oh yeah. I keep hearing the news bring this up since it was in my state.
The son of the owner recently published a book and been doing some interviews, so no surprise it would be popping up in news again.
