@wilcooo Looks like HBO Go was discontinued, so let's just make this the HBO Max issue. I need to update the Chrome UA, I'll probably make it user-configurable too, so it's easier to fix this.
I don't think I can get HBO Max in the UK because of a licensing thing with Sky, so I can't test this myself. It sounds like it's a little broken since I think Chromecast guidelines require player controls on the sender app and they're not working here.

Not functional for me.
I noticed that the UserAgent gets set to
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/80.0.3987.87 Safari/537.36
by this extension, while chrome 80 is very old ("pre-pandemic" even).
Is there any reason for specifying this exact version? Otherwise I would suggest bumping it.
I'm using Firefox on Fedora 36. fx_cast 0.2.0

Let me know if you want me to test something, in case you don't have access to HBO.
B.t.w. I just noticed this is HBO Max, not Go. I'm not sure what the differences are. The address I use is https://play.hbomax.com

I changed the version to 104.0.0.0. Rebuild fx_cast, tested it in Firefox for Developers (regular ff wouldn't let me install unsigned extensions). And... it worked!!
After connecting I can choose what movie to play, and even change to a different one. However, no controls pop up on the HBO site (play/pause/volume/subtitles...). I'm not familiar with HBO on chrome, so that might just be how it's supposed to work.
Edit: the media controls do show up as expected in Chromium.

Sounds good! I see you've already committed those changes :)
The media controls do indeed show up in Chromium. I'll test again in Firefox (regular) once a new fx_cast release is published but I suspect it doesn't make much of a difference as compared to FF for devs. I'll let you know if I happen to figure out the cause.
