The new device, code-named Catalina, will also come with a physical remote and a streaming video service.
Facebook Inc has approached Netflix Inc, Walt Disney Co and other media companies about putting their streaming services on a new Facebook device for making video calls from televisions, The Information reported on Wednesday.
The device, which Facebook aims to release this fall, will use the same video-calling technology that is in its video chatting device Portal, the report said, citing two people familiar with the project and documents.
The new device, code-named Catalina, will also come with a physical remote and streaming video services similar to other television boxes like Apple TV.
The companies did not immediately respond to Reuters request for comment.
