    YEP ran a whole episode of "Game of Thrones" to test it out. Smooth as ice on the playback.

    The Menus can be a little wonky but easy to get past it.

    Would need to use a proxy server and have a subscription to HBO, typically through your cable provider.

    So it's not an app? It's just through the browser?

    It worked fine for me prior to this update. I am the only one using the 5Ghz bandwidth on my network, probably that is the reason why it never froze on me.

    "just" through the browser, oh dear, I'm afraid there's no hope for reprogramming some of you

    Do you mean full screen while the video is playing? If so there is full screen mode button in the lower right corner of the video player much like you tube.

    ok...so HBOGO, when playbook was new, worked great. lately, I can get to the site, it looks great, I log in (through Cox), and when back to HBOGO site, it's dim, and I can't select anything. It still goes through the listings of what's available though...I'm pretty sure just to tease me.

    I've tried deleting wi-fi and reentering, robooting, clearing cache, etc. Anyone gone through this??
