soloredis420 Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 Windows 11 does not have thick clients for these streaming services, but you can go to any website and save it as an application. I am wondering if there is a way to use this feature in bigbox so I could have a home theatre experience. I looked into Kodi but not sure what it does since all youtube videos make it look like you need your own video library's. Even getting the web installed app for example HBO max to launch through launchb box / big box you cannot type because of no on screen keyboard to search with. Can someone tell me more about kodi and my options to add TV streaming services to big box / launch box? One additional tiny question, fall out new vegas has a start launcher that makes you select your graphics ect with a mouse, is there a way to bypass that launcher? Would like to just click play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fromlostdays Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 I hope I don't get roasted for this, but for most users Kodi is going to be a much better Media Center experience. It would just take a lot of work to get Bigbox to do what Kodi does, though I have seen some people do it. You don't need to use your own videos for Kodi. Kodi isn't the easiest thing to configure at first, but the apps you're looking for are called "add ons" and you can download them from within Kodi and also manually if you'd rather that.

KristinaAnderson Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 (edited) I get your desire to have a home theatre experience with streaming services like HBO Max, Hulu, Paramount+, and Netflix on Windows 11. While they don't have dedicated thick clients, there's a workaround! You can visit their respective websites and save them as applications for easy access.

As for integrating them into Big Box or Launch Box, it might be worth exploring Kodi. It's a versatile media center that can handle streaming services, despite some YouTube videos focusing on personal video libraries. By the way, if you're interested in watching Hulu in Saudi Arabia, check out this helpful guide on https://onlinetvcast.com/guides/how-to-watch-hulu-in-saudi-arabia-in-2023-complete-guide.
