My guess is that the lack of support for Linux is because of the lack of
built in DRM.
Years ago we were dealing with several IPTV vendors and a common fear
from the content owners is hackers breaking apart the streams and
posting them to some torrent site.
To get access to the content the IPTV providers had to provide some
encryption to the set-top boxes.
So long as the content owners have an unnatural fear of people stealing
their content it is likely that OS's that are perceived as DRM strong
will be supported.

May I make a suggestion?
If any of you are members of the Rogers community boards, or follow
them on twitter, please educate them about Linux. bell has the same
problem, or claims to have as much.
With programs like the TPL training one introducing people to Linux
vastness, Rogers must know that they must support the platform.
Working around what they are doing without educating them will only
keep them vested in Windows.
Just a thought,

Since it is silent, I don't know what it is objecting too.
IIRC, it also had to Chrome on Windows.
