How to use media streaming devices?

A media player is easy to use, whether it’s a media streaming device such as Google Chromecast, a theatre projector, Blu-ray player, or any of the big-brand set-top boxes on the market. Connection is simple. You either:

  • Use existing accounts. Plug in, turn on and connect through your existing streaming service such as Apple TV or Foxtel Now.
  • Use the Wi-Fi. Your media player, including a 4K Smart projector, may just need to connect to your Wi-fi and then use it through your Smart Home tech.
  • Plug in. Google Chromecast or Amazon Fire Stick plug in as a TV media player via a USB port.

Then it’s just a matter of following the instructions and streaming what you want when you want. You can also connect game consoles through a TV media player.

How do streaming devices work?

A media player will work either of two ways. It can connect your device – phone, tablet, or computer – to your TV, or it can act like a set-top box and allow you to access movies and TV shows from streaming services such as Apple TV or Foxtel, and free-to-air channels. That means you can:

  • Use your TV as a big media streaming device
  • Watch movies and TV shows when you want
  • Access other apps
  • Catchup on free-to-air movies and TV shows
  • Record free-to-air TV
