Yeah...I mixed them up....I can still get 386k under HBOMAX....256k under MAX. New releases are 640k on both though.I get 4K on my FireTV's and ROKU for other things. They are set right. If I watch movies tagged with 4K and purchased from Amazon, that ported in via Movies Anywhere, or are part of Showtime and other channels subscriptions, I get 4K. Not sure why these "included with MAX didn't. I'll have to look at others and see how they come up. I wasn't sure if TBS is 720p upscaled like Fox, ABC and ESPN are. BUT at least Fox/ABC/ESPN is good quality 720p, it isn't noticeably different compared to the 1080i of other channels. TBS is not good, well at least not via Comcast's X1 boxes (it wasn't bad under the old cable boxes).
I'm also going to try logging out of the MAX app on my Roku and FireTV and back in to see what happens.
As for Comcast vs Amz... Yup, AMZ has HEVC and usually 640k EAC3. Where as Max is usually AVC and 256k or so audio. That is one of the reasons I subscribed via AMZ, well that and having all my subs in 1 place/app which makes it a lot easier finding and watching/downloading stuff.
I depend on the webpage itself.....I don't know why, but AS isn't listing hardly any content for MAX. That needs to be fixed.
I got shut down on that complaint though. You might need to ask Amazon why you aren't getting them 4K..could be an easy fix.
