Shaw freerange on a Mi Box?

by maple_leafs182

Any Canadians who have a Shaw cable package, are you able to get shaw freerange to work on a Mi Box?

Can't get it to work on the Shield or Nexus player. It recognizes it as an unsupported device and also has 'data usage' turned off by default when launching.

Hmm, I hadn't even considered it not working. I was about to get a mibox bought and mailed to me by a relative in the states, but if it can't run Shaw free range, or other similar apps that I have access too, it's a deal breaker. :(

Wonder if you can just track down a APK and sideload it to avoid the market.

It use to work on my Nexus Player up until Android N update.

Tried sideloading the Freerange app to my Mi Box and it always crashes on start up. If you read Shaw's FAQ on the Freerange app they block all HDMI video output along with Google Cast.
