Streamsaver Apple TV issue on X1 box

I just signed up for the streamsaver package. According to the assistant app, all the services are active. However, when I try using the apple TV app on the x1 box, it at first required me to sign in and now is only showing a QR code and a website with a code to input. I was able to login and apparently create an apple account on my phone, but when it refreshes the screen I continually get a "couldn't sign in. Wait a moment, then try again" error. 

Am I able to access Apple TV through my x1 box, or is it just smoke & mirrors? Thank you.
