This is what I need as well. I love the content but I hate how there is no native TV app.
Bummer, thanks for the info.Yeah there was that app but it's not on the PS5, I liked using it. I havent seen an equivalent
Like others, by resetting my PS5 I was able to download the app.This is great news! I just tried to download it and got an error saying that it only works on PS4. About to reset my PS5 to see if that fixes the issue.
So excited to be able to fully use the PS5 as my single streaming platform!!!!! I'd been using my One X only for HBO MAX to this point, but now can consolidate all to my PS5. YAY!
I was really annoyed with this app now being on my LGTV and PS5, then I find out that all the content is only 1080p with no HDR. I think WW will be the 1st to support 4k and HDR.
still on Max until next year
I stand corrected.
Does a streaming app exist that is worse than Amazon's?
Sorry that was a typo on my part. I meant to say not, not now. But no still no LG support, I believe it's still only on Samsung TVs.
I'm interested in this too. It's definitely the smoothest on the Apple TV. I had tried on the PS4 Pro and wow it is janky
Sorry that was a typo on my part. I meant to say not, not now. But no still no LG support, I believe it's still only on Samsung TVs.
I am sorry to report that, due to the 2021 WB movie release plan, HBO Max no longer offers a trial sub.
This is what I'd ultimately prefer, but in the meantime, this works just fine for me. It means my PS4 doesn't need to be hooked up if I want to watch 4K/HDR content on my good TV.
That said, I'm not holding my breath for the LG app. We never even got the older HBO apps on LG sets.
Just curious, but did you watch HBOMax on your PS4 (I'm guessing you had a Pro?) before you got a PS5? How did the HDR/4K look?
Just watched Mulan the other night on Disney+ via my LG CX and it looked beautiful. But I know Disney+ has issues on the Pro with HDR for some reason. Did you find the same with HBOMax?
Not the person you quoted buy HBOMax currently doesn't have HDR/4K support. That'll come when Wonder Woman is released.
About damn time (I was just using my Smart TV before) and yeah, would have been pretty bad if they didn't have it for WW84 launch next week.
Ahh, ok. Thank you. Hopefully it releases with no issues for the Pro, as that's the only way for me to watch the app right now.
Sorry I should've also shared that I think it'll be delayed for consoles.
These are the listed devices that they'll support for 4K HDR when it launches:
- Apple TV 4K
- Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K, Fire TV Cube and 4K Fire TV Edition smart TVs
- Google Chromecast Ultra and "supported" Android TV devices
- The AT&T TV streaming box (which runs Android TV)
Still not in Canada...
CRAVE is such a garbage substitute because it's just cable services again, where you are forced to buy things you do not want in order to get the stuff you actually want.
