Do you want to know how to stream HBO Max on Discord? Yes, playing movies and games from companies such as HBO Max and then streaming them elsewhere at the same time might seem redundant. However, you might want to do this when you want to watch a movie or game with friends and discuss what is happening in real time. <\/p>

Since HBO Max doesn’t offer this feature, organizing an online gathering via Discord is a good option for this process.<\/p>

Discord is a free and simple way to communicate with others. Users can create their own servers and invite friends to chat or play games together. They can even join public chat channels where they can meet people who share their interests.<\/p>

It is available on almost all platforms and has many features that make it an excellent choice for gamers. Currently, Discord has over 150 million registered users, making it the most popular messaging app for gamers.<\/p>

Moreover, with the \u2018Go Live\u2019 feature, it is now possible to stream movies and TV shows using Discord. Although this feature was designed to live-stream gameplay, you can use it to broadcast whatever you\u2019re watching on HBO MAX to your friends. You can also stream Hulu, Netflix, and more by using Discord.<\/p>

What is HBO Max?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>

HBO has been in the industry for decades and is one of the most successful providers of premium content. HBO Max is a new streaming service from HBO that launched in 2020. It competes against Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, and other streaming services. <\/p>

Besides its own original content, HBO Max also features content from other WaynerMedia properties such as TNT, TBS, TCM, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, and more. <\/p>

HBO Max offers shows such as House of the Dragon, Game of Thrones: The Last Watch, Westworld, Euphoria, and Friends: The Reunion among others. The company says it has around 10,000 hours of premium content. You can watch it on a variety of devices including mobile devices, tablets, laptops, and smart TVs.<\/p>

It is possible to stream HBO Max on Discord depending on the content. Furthermore, it\u2019s also possible to stream HBO Max using and use Teleparty, which is a great way to get friends altogether. To utilize this feature you need to download the right extension to your browser and then you can then share the link with whomever you want to.<\/p>

Whoever has the link is able to watch the stream. As mentioned, it\u2019s important to consider that it is actually against the law to do that, as is streaming on all apps.<\/p>

How to stream HBO Max on the Discord Desktop App<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>

Sharing a movie or favorite HBO Max series with your Discord friends has never been easier. All you need is an updated Discord app and your HBO Max subscription. The basic streaming service is accessible on Discord, but only users with a paid subscription can stream in 4K. That\u2019s why it\u2019s advisable to get a Discord Nitro account.<\/p>

Also, you will need to download and install the Discord app if you don\u2019t have it already. Discord for Web doesn\u2019t allow streaming.<\/p>

Follow these steps to start streaming HBO Max on Discord:<\/p>

  1. Open the Discord desktop app.<\/li>\n\n
  2. Launch your web browser, and log into your HBO Max account.<\/li><\/ol>
    \"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>
    1. Select a movie or series you\u2019ll share on Discord.<\/li>\n\n
    2. Go back to the Discord app and go to User Settings<\/strong>. It\u2019s a small gear icon in the bottom left corner, next to the headset icon.<\/li><\/ol>
      \"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>
      1. Select Registered Games<\/strong> under the Activity Settings<\/strong> section of the sidebar menu. On the main window click Add it!<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>
        \"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>
        1. Select the open browser where HBO Max is from the drop-down menu and click the Add Game<\/strong> button.<\/li><\/ol>
          \"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>
          1. Now choose the server where you\u2019ll stream HBO Max, and go to the Discord voice channel. This is a voice chat room where you can meet up and talk to others who share the server. Remember that you can create your own server and a voice chat room for watch parties.<\/li><\/ol>
            \"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>
            1. Select the Share Screen<\/strong> option above your username when you join the voice channel.<\/li><\/ol>
              \"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>
              1. When a pop-up window appears, select the screen or app with HBO Max opened.<\/li><\/ol>
                \"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>
                1. In the next window, you can adjust the stream quality. Make sure you set the best available resolution and frame rate. Unfortunately, if you don\u2019t have a Nitro account, you can only stream in 720p resolution and at 15 or 30fps (choose 30).<\/li>\n\n
                2. When everything is set, select the blue Go Live<\/strong> button at the bottom of the screen.<\/li><\/ol>
                  \"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>

                  That\u2019s it. You are now streaming whatever is on your screen. If you want to stop streaming, simply end the call by clicking the Disconnect<\/strong> button.<\/p>
