If you like the programming of the Atresmedia group, you can follow it thanks to the fact that an Android application has been launched that allows you to see its contents both live and those that have already been broadcast. The development in particular is called Atresplayer and it can be downloaded without any cost.
Therefore, watching channels such as Antena 3, LaSexta, Neox Xplora is as much possible as doing it with a really high image quality. Of course, your device must meet the following requirements: Android 2.3.3 o and have 8 MB of free space. Therefore, its compatibility is very wide and, as we could see, this creation works perfectly both in dual-core models and in those with four “cores”. These are the links that can be used to get Atresplayer: Samsung Apps and Play Store.
One of the characteristics that attracts attention is that, despite the fact that this development is compatible with somewhat old versions of Android, navigation is done using a Lateral Menu, which is usually characteristic of applications for Android 4.0 or higher. Besides, in almost all Atresplayer screens there are three icons at the top that allow direct access to the following sections: identifying yourself if you are a registered user (which costs nothing), accessing live broadcasts and, finally , a search engine for programs and broadcasts. In this way, it is verified that everything is quite accessible.
Everything simple, no complications
The truth is that when we have used Atresplayer, everything has been very simple, since all the places or broadcasts are identified by a square-shaped icon in which there is a very characteristic image. In addition, in the live shows there is also a drawing identifying the channel in question, so that also in this way it is possible to recognize the contents. An example, if an image of the series The Simpsons appears, you can access both the history of chapters and the one that is being broadcast live, if this is the case.
Once you choose what you want to see, you access a screen in which at the top is the access to the multimedia player and below a small explanation of what can be viewed. Besides, you can also press the icon share to do this on Facebook or Twitter. By the way, a list of the chapters that can be viewed appears beforehand, with an arrow to the right, and then others with a padlock, which are only accessible to registered users.
In the section of the live streams in Atresplayer, where you can see the broadcasts by streaming (for which you consume data rate or WiFi, as the case may be), it must be said that the quality of the reproductions is good and that we hardly appreciate jumps , especially when using the second type of connectivity listed above. Besides, there are ads, as expected, and it must be said that sometimes when they finish they get stuck and it takes longer than necessary for the live signal to flow.
Final details to highlight
As it cannot be otherwise, Atresplayer includes a help that is very useful if you are not sure how to use development, simply to get the most out of it. Besides, his search engine It must be said that it is very powerful, so if there is a term that you want to locate, you will find it without problems.
In short, a very interesting application because of its usefulness to avoid missing broadcasts, even live, but you must be careful to use it via WiFi, since it “eats” the data without almost realizing it (like most of developments of this type, it must be said). Of course, a redesign to update it to Holo would not hurt, since in this way in the most powerful terminals surely they would "squeeze it better". In any case, this creation is a recommended option to be able to always be attentive to what is broadcast on the group's channels. Atresmedia.
