HBO On Demand allows subscribers the flexibility and convenience of what and when they want to watch. Available on cable television and Telkomvision’s IPTV platform, subscribers also get access to unlimited viewing of HBO Original Productions and Hollywood movies in any given month.

In June, HBO Asia launched HBO Hits HD, a new high-definition channel, in Indonesia.

Meanwhile, HBO Asia has enhanced two channels – HBO Signature and HBO HD. HBO Signature is a channel that embodies modern sophistication, while HBO HD is the first high definition regional subscription English movie channel in Asia, which has been time-shifted one hour ahead of HBO. Prime-time on HBO HD will now be at 9pm (8pm Thai.Jkt / 10pm Mal).

HBO and MAX have also increased carriage in Indonesia by launching on Nexmedia.

The recent enhancements have seen prime-time changes to HBO, from 9pm (8pm Thai.Jkt) to 10pm (9pm Thai.Jkt); while on HBO FAMILY, from 6pm (5pm Thai.Jkt) to 7pm (6pm Thai.Jkt). HBO Asia has also offered dual language in Bahasa Malaysia and English to all weekend prime-time movies in Malaysia.
