    Default HBO GO pulled from Boxee?

    I had HBO go on my boxee box last week. I went to try it yesterday and it's gone! I looked at the HBO go website and its says nothing about boxee support, just roku. Anyone have anymore info?

    Right? I registered to say the same thing, I was running HBO Go on my Boxee fine for the last couple of months and it just disappeared - I had it as a Favorite and now it's MIA from there and my full app list?!?

    NOT GOOD!!!

    Bumping this since I too have seen HBO Go disappear without a peep from the folks at Boxee.

    Gone for me too. What gives? I use this app regularly, so to not having it cripples my Boxee. Can someone from Boxee please give an explanation here??

    The "app" was submitted to Boxee by someone
    other than HBO as a pointer to their HTML 5 app. We've taken down the
    current app, but you can still access it via our web browser and bookmark it.

    Thanks for your response Marcel. I didn't think to access it directly via the browser. Cheers!

    The boxxee browser dosen't have adobe flash, and I am not able to download it through the website. Do you have suggestions?

    HBO GO shouldn't require flash if you can get to the HTML 5 version of their website/offering.

    (And, there isn't a version of Adobe Flash available for the Boxee Box anymore, please see the Known / Common Issues post near the top of the forum section)

    Does anyone have the HBO GO HTML 5 URL?

    I can only seem to access the flash version, and am prompted to upgrade to new flash unsuccessfully. I miss HBO GO!
