If i lived in States I could buy....

Thank you! just ordered one! can't wait to try this out!

Wow, those went fast. I wouldn't fret - I'm sure they will have stock soon, and they're saying to go ahead and order and they'll ship when available - in other words, first come first serve. I'd get in line for that free shipping if I didn't have mine ordered!

Still trying to figure out if I want one. I know its only $35, but I have drawers full of $35 gadgets rotting away. I already have an Apple TV and a Roku 3 and a WD Live and a HTPC. All of which do everything this does and more. The streaming from the phone or tablet thing is goofy....your content is not on your phone (unless you are a 14 year old or something), its on a server somewhere (either netflix's or Amazon's or your own). Add in the lack of Ethernet (wireless sucks for streaming HD content...you are always at the mercy of your neighbors) and I think its a $35 drawer-space-taker-upper.
Someday I will be in Best Buy or something and my retard gene will kick in and I will buy one, play with it for a week, then into the drawer it goes, lol.

too bad its out of stock :<

Before I order I want to know if you can use it to stream movies from your phone to the TV without WIFI IE ad hoc from the phone

In this article: http://www.inquisitr.com/868923/chromecast-tv-35-google-dongle-is-cheap-but-how-well-does-it-work/ it says this:
Essentially the Chromecast TV dongle will offer users the ability to stream Internet video and content onto their television screen. Simply plug the dongle into the HDMI port of a TV then connect it to the WiFi network at home. You can then watch movies or listen to music stored on your smartphone, tablet or PC, and watch or listen to it on the big screen.

Sorry if it wasn't what you were looking for, but how did you expect it to connect without Wi-fi? The nice thing is that your phone is free to be used as normal while streaming.

This isn't an application - it's a piece of hardware Google released yesterday to allow streaming to any HDTV (smart or not). See videos in the OP.

Thats not what I am looking for. I did read that. I am saying can you setup a ad hoc wireless with your phone and stream a saved video to the tv if you dont have internet.

I picked one up at Best Buy yesterday and tried what you are asking. It will not work that way. You can setup and adhock network on your phone, connect the Chromecast and a 3rd device to stream to the Chromecast. I couldn't stream from the device providing the network.

So you could use a phone for the ad hoc network and connect a tablet and the chromecast and then stream from the tablet to the TV?

Exactly. I used my S4 to setup the network, connected chromecast and my wife's Note 2 and streamed to the chromecast via her Note 2.
I really haven't played with it too much; just watched a couple of youtube videos but that did work.

Joe T, can you play local content like
- local stored movies
- local stored musik
- local stored pictures?
Cloud stuff is quite good but not everything is synced with google at my side, just my music..

From what I gather... no unfortunately. Google Music should work, YouTube definitely works but those are the only two things I was able to stream.
I tried to stream a TV Portal (android app) show to it and there was no "Chromecast" option on mx player or my S4's stock player. I've only spent about an hour messing around with it though.
I actually looked into it this morning in hopes there was something I was missing, I wanted to stream my own content to it and came across this G+ post. It doesn't look like you can stream whatever you want to it.
Also, if you look on the chromecast developer site it states
"You may not publicly distribute or ship your Google Cast application without written permission from Google, per the terms of service described below."
and
"YOU MAY NOT PUBLICLY DISTRIBUTE CODE CONTAINING THIS SDK OR REFERENCING THESE APIs WITHOUT A WRITTEN AGREEMENT WITH GOOGLE ALLOWING YOU TO DO SO."
I hope google doesn't lock this down so only certain services can be used.
EDIT:
I was wrong. You can play local files through the Chrome Browser

Any idea if it has DLNA support?? Say to support something like Plex??

Developers: Is this useful/Could an App like this be created?

Hello, I don't know much about coding, or Andriod Developing apps. But came up with this.
A Wesbite/App which can have like a large Online database/torrent whereby users can pick any torrents and simply click on then and STREAM them directly.
After doing some research I found this:
The closest thing is from some Russians, who have managed to successfully, create some sort of new Unique protocol or something like that ^^^, and it works GREAT, however its LIMITED to Russian and TV only.
Could an Developer use this Unique Technology/Protocol and create an English type or library?
The App: Torrent Stream

The software more info :"
" Ace Stream is an innovative multimedia platform of a new generation, which includes different products and solutions for ordinary Internet users as well as for professional members of the multimedia market.
Note: Ace Stream uses in its core, P2P (peer-to-peer) technology, BitTorrent protocol, which is acknowledged as the most effective protocol to transfer/deliver «».""
Ace Stream platform provides excellent audio-visual quality for Internet online broadcasts/shows and the most effective system of storing and delivering audio and video content.
Note: Ace Stream users watch online video with audio-visual quality level ten times greater than quality of video on YouTube (provided in 1080p format) and many times greater than broadcasts/shows of all other existing services of VoD and Live Stream provided by OTT (Over The Top) service operators, which do not use P2P technology.
No existing Live Stream service or standard CDN operator using unicast can provide live broadcast with the same high level quality, for the same number of viewers, that can be provided by the average Ace Stream user from his personal computer using home Internet-channel!

How to mirror my android phone screen to my tablet or TV box?

Hi there
like the title of this thread,
i want an application wich allow me to Mirror my android phone screen to another android tablet or tv box
i search on the Play store but i don't find what i need.
so can anyone help me !!!
regards

Samsung devices can do this via SideSync. I went out of my way to get a phone and tablet so I could use the mirror/remote call/file transfer functionality. Recently LG copied this, so if you have an LG phone and tablet you may also be in luck.
You should probably check the list of devices that support the Chromecast, or consider MHL for output of your phone to a television via an adapter cable.
Sent from my Galaxy S5

After long search i think that it's not possible to mirror All the screen of the phone to another android device beacause
it's should be a protocol like ,DLNA or Miracast ... wich is possible with a dongle wifi display.
but i found two applications wich allow us to share content between devices:
1_ the first aplication is Screenshare:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.springdesign.screenshare.browser.server
2_The seconde application is EZcast screeen
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.actionsmicro.ezcastrx
you can watch the video to know how it works

If both devices are rooted you can get full Chromecast functionality (well, mostly. a few things like Netflix don't and likely will never work) using the Cast receiver port that's on this board along with the Xposed module to disable the signature date check on the device that's sending the Cast, works for me.

Thank you but i don't understand very well
can you please explain what shoul i do step by step?
Regards

I can recommend to use my app Screen Stream Mirroring :angel: , here is the free version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobzapp.screenstream.trial
I recommend it not only because I am the developer, but because the app was initially made for this.
You can use VLC for Android as receiver or any other RTSP player.
I will also release very soon a player for Android with good additional features.
Just ask if you have any question.

How it works?? there is no instructions!
please explain step by step what i should do?

Download allcast receiver to your tablet and allcast to your phone.

vnc method (root)
Try droid vnc server from the play store(this requires root access) on the device you want to mirror and get a vnc viewer on the device that you want to connect to the vnc server and this will mirror your screen

hi i owned galaxy note 3 phone and recently just bought galaxy tablet note 10.1.
i want to do this:
i have movie files on my sd card on my phone, but i want to watch the movie on my tablet screen (streaming)
(not swapping the sd card, and if possible using direct wifi or bluetooth only. not transferring the movie file but streaming them).
thanks. both devices has android 4.4.2

search yueye and download two apps called limitless remote and limitless server. The server app will host a server so every devices on the same Lan can pair up with, but you need to root your server device or the display will be blank, the client device which is the controlling side do not require rooting. You can also download a limitless.zip from the original website to install it in any window os, you can even remote control your pc when you host a server there

If you have a quite recent Android version it should use hardware encoding so you should be able to stream any game... up to 60fps since Android 4.4.
You can check in app preferences if hardware encoding is enabled.

I was going to try your app, but the reviews on Playstore are dismal. Possibly the most negative reviews I've ever seen for an app. So I won't bother, because as in most apps, there are dozens more.
You really should consider trashing the app, fixing it (apparently you have an insane number of ads in the free version) and re-releasing it under a different title. Word of mouth, or in this case, thumbs is everything in the dev world.

I just tried the screenshare app on my Samsung Galaxy tab SM-T350 and a cheap little LGL15G. It works perfectly. I only tried it on my home wifi network, but it streams fast, installs easy and best of all, its free with NO ADS

[PSA] Hauppauge USB tuner and Chromecast with Google TV currently don't work together

For all the cord cutters out there, the CCGTV (Sabrina) currently doesn't have the drivers to support the Hauppauge WinTV-dualHD USB TV tuner. I contacted Hauppauge support and they confirmed it.
I have used the USB tuner on my Nvidia Shield with the Live Channels app + DVR just fine, but it sounds like Hauppauge worked directly with Nvidia to get the drivers supported. There's a little green LED on the USB stick that turns on as soon as it's plugged into the Shield. This doesn't happen when it's connected to the Chromecast. The support email mentioned they are unsure if and when this will be supported.
It seems a little strange because I'd read that an older version of this USB tuner (Xbox version, single tuner) worked with the Nexus Player, so I was hoping for native Android TV support out of the box. Looks like we'll have to wait a little longer or find another solution to get live OTA TV channels on this thing.
The Live Channels app is loaded on my Chromecast, but it doesn't see the USB tuner. The only "channel" I'm able to watch right now, ironically, is the Google Play Movies and TV previews channel (still uses the red film icon too) ?*.

Having DVB-C and DVB-T2 support on this CCWGTV would be really nice. However we might have to wait until someone roots it.
And I don't think it will happen soon. Plus the driver needs to be updated and some kernel patches need to be made.
Custom drivers for Android IS possible, but quite a hassle to complete. I wonder why there is no native support for these devices in kernel 4.9.
The Hauppage devices are out there for quite some time already.

It's actually worthwhile setting up a TVHeadend server on an old machine or even on a Raspberry Pi, that way with the tvh-live channels plugin on Android TV you can have access anywhere, even outside the home. For other non android tv devices TVH works extremely well on KODI
