I wasn't aware that you can't pause LiveTV. That isn't good. But most of the stuff that I watch, I watch from recorded.I agree with the UI bugs and the UI doesn't seem made for a TV - the guide should show a lot more channels per page, for instance...

Officially there is only a Rogers Xfinity streaming app for FireTV. But FireTV is just a variation of AndroidTV and you can sideload the FireTV app on GoogleTV/AndroidTV devices, including TVs that have that OS built in. This works on the GoogleTV ...
