Questioncan u access the web with devise ?
Asked 10 years ago by Dano.
- Answer Yes you can use a couple different methods to access websites via a chrome browser. If you are more than a novice android user and are familiar with sideloading then you can install the apk for chrome easily with the micro usb port via OTG cable or google drive through a file explorer, and the other method is accessing chrome through selecting a web link in the settings menu. Do a quick youtube search for step by step on the latter method. You will want a mouse and keyboard if you load chrome on this device as it's not optimized for Android TV with the remote as the primary input device.

QuestionGame ControllerDoes this product come with the game controller?
Asked 10 years ago by Silvermyst.
- Answer No, the game controller is a separate purchase ($39.99) regular price. It's a great controller in my opinion, and allows for up to 4 controllers to be sync'd to the device for local multiplayer as well. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/asus-wireless-gamepad-for-nexus-player-black/2445024.p?id=1219542305986&skuId=2445024

QuestionCan I view my local channels on it?
Asked 10 years ago by JP.
- Answer It does not have that functionality built in. However, I use a media center pc running windows 7 and use a piece of software I found called Kodi (formerly known as XBMC) and it has a client for the Nexus Player. This allows me to view my over the air channels that I watch and record on my media center machine and also access my recorded programs. This has worked extremely well. I didn't buy the device with this in mind, but am very happy with this setup now. However, the device itself, does not have inputs for cable or tv on it physically, so you'ld have to do that through software to some other system.

Questionhave web browser?Can access the internet??? have web browser or just apps?
Asked 10 years ago by silvana.
- Answer There is no pre-installed Web browser, the easiest way is to just cast your phone to the device. That being said, there are ways to side-load, or install any app you want. Google leaves the nexus players unlocked, meaning you may root the device easily, however there is no warranty if you do so, meaning at your own risk.
