We haven't tried to access it. We live out in the country and have a fairly slow internet feed. For most functions that we use, we have been very pleased.

I can say now that it does. I installed the Xfinity app and watched part of a show. You'll like this thing if you're thinking about buying one.

I believe it does.The reception is not very good. I got a $30 Sony that brings in stations much better.

Yes but the thing never worked for me. Only the radio works. I recommend different player.

Yes but not through hdmi. It has optical, digital coaxial, stereo and pc inputs.

Yes, as long as its connected to a TV or PC (or perhaps a tablet, not sure) and you have a suitable playback program like VLC or Realplayer.

It doesn't automatically play. You have to follow the directions to download some drivers from the disc it comes with in order to use their video system. If you have Windows Media Center already on your computer you go to settings, click on General, and then do Windows Media TV setup or something similar to those steps. If you have Windows Media Center already on your computer, I suggest you use that as a much better system.

It does not have an HDMI in, nor is there any provision for sound playback. It is not capable of showing a TV signal unless you invest in some adapter hardware. But at that point, you might as well buy an inexpensive TV.

Can you get live tv? No. This product is just a bunch of Web pages, not tv.

I don't think it will stream live TV, only movies, you have to have some provider of live tv on the other end with a sling box connected to cable or satellite.

It does play audio because HDMI connection to the TV has integrated audio. It did not need an extra audio cable.

Does not have a TV tuner. Can play videos of almost any format. Mine turned out to be an excellent buy.

YES. I have this TV and it does pick up the Digital Television Channels via the antenna. It does a heck of a job pulling in channels from the antenna, HDTV programming via antenna, as well as cable channels without the need for a cable box.

Yes. The program you get from their website (free,) has a built in broadcast module. Just set it up, start playing and broadcasting in one go.

It will play through the FM channel on your radio. They make an FM modulator that will hookup to your FM antenna.

Yes. It's connected to TV so it will play sound from anything as long as thru TV.

No, not to my knowledge...but it has the capability of multi-media usage. The large variety of TV channels provide excellent color and reception. Mine is a few years old. I recently purchased an updated one for a gift; my friend is very happy with it. You can also add external speakers; the audio is a little weak; hook up to the computer to watch DVD's; has an adapter for the car. For its size and price; I think its great (for a TV) Hope this helps!

No, but if you have a computer plugged up to play on your TV you can use it. May someone else has more to say on this matter.
