Ya in Canada, just bought it brand new 4 months ago. I’ve done absolutely everything that everyone is suggesting. Weird.

I do have the search function but nothing pops up. The apps are all broken down by category. I’ve searched through sports multiple times, looking over every single app. Still nothing.

my one firestick had no issues finding the app, however the other one (cheaper model) cannot. I looked on Amazon site under my apps and devices and found the CHL app attached to my one firestick can click on itto see status and is ok but the but the other stick listed says
Your device compatibility with this app:

    2nd FireTVStick
Roku is so much easier as it delivers the app to ALL roku devices once you download it

Yah maybe it has to do with the model of fire stick you have. For mine, it appears you need to have an android device to download it to first, then it will magically appear apparently. I've given up at this point. Will try to stream through the browser on my fire stick. It works well with streaming sites for NHL games, hopefully it will with the new CHL tv. If not, could always go retro with the lap top. Bummer.

Does anyone know if there’s a way to turn live scores off on the app or website? For those who can’t watch live and want to watch the game later at night, being able to turn scores off is key.

Stream quality is very good. Complaints are that I am unable to get video on the app on my android phone. Only audio which is weird. And I don't see how to turn off scores as mentioned above^.

Stream quality is great. Loving this. As the previous posts mentioned they really need to have a part of the settings where you can "hide scores" Lots of games I'll want to watch on demand from all three leagues and don't want to know the score everytime. They have to find a way to fix that.

Well it kept buffering every minute or so for the first 10 minutes and then after that it settled in and worked fine. I'm assuming someone stopped playing online games down the line right about then and it had the space to make me happy. :)

Question: is a monthly pass 30 days or just a calendar month (IE: If I buy now the pass ends November 1st)?

So after a couple of weeks with this I find the feeds from Rogers are the ones that seem to have issues ( buffering, no audio, Dropped coverage or coverage reset). This happened twice with the Owen Sound coverage and last night with the Barrie coverage. I flipped over to the Flint game and the Petes game and watched both and had zero issues. Both in HD. So the Flint television Network and Cogeco feeds seem to be fine. Not sure what causes this but I'm going to pass this on.

I think you are on to something I watched two cogeco games from Windsor without issues but the LDN OS ( Rogers )game had audio loss issues a couple times.
The LDN OS from Bud Gardens was Rogers though and no issues with that one...

Greyhounds game from Barrie last night was ok, except for the stream error I got 30 seconds in. Couldn't restart the app, had to completely reboot the firestick. No issues after that, but it has happened before with this app, never with any other app.

Have you tried this with Shaw coverage or do you get that on a cable feed?

TBH haven't even checked Shaw cable to see if it's on. I jumped on the chl tv package in the preseason and haven't looked back.

The fronts-wolves game tonight looks like it’s being filmed on a Nokia flip phone

Yep, the players looked like ants. I don't understand why the person in the control room is not telling the camera operators to zoom in more. It's hard the watch the game like that.

Anyone else have issues with the video and sound matching up? Mine seems like it's a good 2 minutes in difference.
