HBO Max.com not streaming on Safari on my brand new Mac Studio M2 Max
MAX.com will not play on Safari on my new Mac Studio M2 Max
i can stream on my MBP M1, my wife's MacAir, iPad Pro & Apple TV. it just won't stream on Safari on my new Studio. it goes to an error page with a long 36 character hash which (of course) won't let you copy & paste. i used my iPhone to grab the hash & pasted it into notepad. then sent it to Max.com's empty cache, empty history, restart browser, restart router, turn wifi ooff then on again.....when i switch to Chrome it plays fine. sure i can just switch over & play on Chrome, but i hate chrome. so many tracking pixels & cookies in Chrome that i avoid using it when i can.
last year there was a DRM issue with HBO & Safari that they said was fixed. i'm wondering if it's related to my M2 chip since it's the only computer browser that can't access play.max.com without erroring. it plays the trailers, but craps out on playing the actual movies.
And yes, i set the settings for play.max.com :
- ALLOW Autoplay
- OFF to content Blockers
- ALLOW Popup Windows
