Canadian Live TV?

by 7HR4SH3R

Hello r/AndroidTV

I recently purchased a Nexus Player and was trying playing with the Live Channels app. Are there any apps that work with it in Canada? The only one I have found is The Weather Network and I can't even get it to work.

Thanks!

Canadian networks seem to hate Android more or less Android TV. CBC still has never put out a steaming app for their shows, CTV's app will not connect with the Nexus player but will with the Chromecast. City/Rogers apps are almost all out of date and stream low resolution unless it's ads. Global is severely limited unless you pay for cable.

For some Canadian content you can install Kodi ( www.kodi.tv ) and you can get addons for CBC, HGTV, FoodTV and others (Google for 'em). Not live nor integrated into the leanback launcher, but it works a treat.
