@tc10 -- Flash is not supported on Macs.

As of January 2021, Flash is not supported on Microsoft Windows, or anywhere else. It has hit its "sunset".

Web-site designers have been recoding to use HTML5, instead of Adobe Flash Player.

One recent Microsoft Update actually removed Flash from Windows 10.

Any updates from Shaw? When will we get BlueCurve app for Apple TV?
Apple TVos and Apple iOS are similar now.

We have been waiting for 3 years while this has been available from other providers but Shaw??

 

Soon?

While not the solution being called for in this string, I have found Google Chromecast to work equally as well as ATV. The more expensive (but still less expensive than ATV) the Google TV dongle does the job very well. That version does everything including Apple TV app, Disney and all the other favourites which are baked into the hardware, just like ATV. Shaw BlueCurve still requires casting which works just fine. Even the Google TV packaging is very Apple like 😊

I have three summer applications for this hardware and everything works great. I no longer need additional summer accounts to keep in touch with TV viewing.

Google TV and Shaw BlueCurve TV it works!  https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/google-chromecast-with-google-tv-snow/14924711?source=search&ad...

It has been 4 years without the ability for Apple TV to connect to BlueCurve to access Shaw HDTV.  What the heck folks??   How do we put our request in to your Shaw Bluecurve service provider??  Many of us would like to email them requesting Apple TV access

@tc10 I dare say this is a marketing decision. Putting BlueCurve TV on Apple TV (and other platforms) would certainly cannibalize the hardware end of things for Shaw. 

Chromecast is working very well.

The Shaw TV app on FireTV has been working really well, in fact the picture seems better than the picture using the box. The 30 second skip is default which is nice and I don’t get the occasional video glitch that I get with the box. 

If it wasn’t for the fact that I can’t set recordings and not all channels are available, I would ditch the BC hardware.

I have made many requests along those lines. I suspect this is a matter of marketing and licensing. Too bad, porting to Blue Curve app into the tvOS App Store would be a welcome addition. In the mean time Chromecasting has worked very well.
