Hulu & HBO

Question

I have a wireless x1 box, I DO have access to my Hulu account ON that box.  BUT... I do NOT have access to my HBO subscription thru Hulu ON that box!  Why?  I can access it from my Windows 10 PC, but NOT my x1 box.  Can someone please explain?

That’s a Hulu/HBO decision on what to allow through the app.

What do you mean?  I thought this WAS an open and public forum.  If not please provide a link to the open forums and I'll gladly repost there.

The poorly worded 'post publicly' advice in the Expert and Employee signature blocks is intended to encourage customers to post a public message instead of sending a Private message. It appears in all the messages they post.

Thanks, Bruce.  For a sec there I thought I wasn't posting correctly even though I've been forum posting for 30+ years.  At any rate, does anyone have any ideas regarding my Hulu/HBO problem on my TV?  Again, I can get the Hulu app to load, and I can watch any of the standard Hulu content EXCEPT my newly added HBO subscription.  Like I said earlier, I CAN see this HBO content on my Windows 10 Desktop... but for some reason, I cannot see it on my X1 box.  This is really puzzling me.

https://community.hulu.com/s/questions has a few questions unanswered by Hulu. It must be a contract stipulation possibly between HBO and Hulu and/or Comcast.
