Set it and forget it

Your TV knows what's on next.

Line up the day once – from the TV guide, one press per show – and Captain's Player runs it for you.

  • TV Scheduler – the TV switches to the right channel by itself at the time you set. Once, or every week.
  • Reminders – a pop-up a minute before kick-off. Press OK and you're watching.
  • Scheduled recordings – to the exact minute, even at 2 a.m. while you sleep.
  • Perfect for bars and venues – set the week's games in the morning; the screens change over on their own.

Questions

Good to know

Does Captain's Player come with channels?

No. Captain's Player is a media player only – like a DVD player without the discs. You add a playlist from a provider you are entitled to use, and the app plays it beautifully.

Which devices does it work on?

Android TV boxes, Google TV, Fire TV and Android phones. On a TV, install it with the Downloader app and code 3929987.

What happens after the 7 free days?

The app asks you to activate. Scan the code on the screen, pay on your phone, and the TV unlocks by itself within a minute. Your playlists, favourites and settings are all still there.

Is it a subscription?

No. The 1-year licence is paid once and does not renew by itself. Lifetime is paid once and is yours for good.

How many TVs does a licence cover?

One licence covers one TV or box. Each TV gets its own free trial too.

Can the TV change channels by itself?

Yes – the TV Scheduler switches to the channel you chose at the time you set, once or every week. Pick a game in the TV guide and the channel and times fill in by themselves. You can also set a reminder that pops up a minute before a show starts.

Can I record shows?

Yes – record what's on now, or schedule a recording to the exact minute, to a USB stick, an SD card or the box itself.

I sell TV boxes or services. Can I sell Captain's Player?

Yes – see the Resellers page. You buy activation points in packs and set your own price.

How do I get help?

Email support@captainsplayer.com, or go to Settings → Support on the TV: your message reaches us with a screenshot, so we can see the problem.

Captain's Player is a media player only. It does not provide, sell or include any channels, movies, series or other content, and it is not affiliated with any content provider. To watch anything you add a playlist from a source you are entitled to use.
