Hi,
Are you not able to download from Google Play? Have you tried to find an APK and load it manually via SD/USB to see if it will launch as expected? We won't be able to assist much from our side unfortunately as Shomi is not our application and compatibility issues would need to be addressed by the developer. -
I just tried it, as I also recently signed up for the free trial.
The app downloads and installs from the Play Store fine. (I installed "Shomi for tablet", not "Shomi for phone" and it requires Android 4.0+, so should run on all vboxes)
Of course you need the remote with the pointer, or a mouse to navigate. Everything seems to work, until you attempt to play a video. It starts buffering but then quits. I couldn't get it to work even after disabling Ethernet and switching to wifi. :/
I'll stick with using my Apple TV for now.Comment
