    I thought all that application would do was just open the boxee browser directly to the HBO go website. I could be wrong, but I didn't see one bit of difference between using that app and just navigating to HBO GO in the boxee browser.

    I accessed HBO GO through google spotlight in the boxee browser on the boxee box and when launching the app it tells me that I need adobe flash. Same exact problem when accessing HBO GO through the boxee browser. Has flash been removed from the boxee browser or what?

    It is official though---HBO GO is gone on the boxee box.

    Seems unlikely. In either case, as post above, HBO Go requires v10.2 or newer, Boxee Box can't be updated beyond 10.1 (see the Known / Common Issues sticky).

    Yes, per the fifth post of this thread.

    Darci marcel says you can still access it from the boxee browser in that post, which I cannot. Are they aware of this problem? Even from the browser it is requesting that I install flash. Maybe a restore is in order?

    I don't think a restore will help.

    Perhaps emailing Marcel to see if he can confirm it works via the browser...

    I am unable to update to Flash v10.2, have tried to do so through Boxee Box favorites and through Google search sites through the Box browser. This is a major disappointment, because Boxee Box is unable to stream my HBO recordings (via Ceton) to my HDTV. Is there any other way to do it?

    If there is no other way to do it, can someone suggest another piece of hardware that will bring in HBO go?
