If you have a personal computer or laptop that has the MicrosoftВ® WindowsВ® 10 operating system installed, you can use the wireless Screen mirroring feature to display or extend your computer screen to a TV compatible with Miracastв„ў technology. Use the Chromecast built-in (Google Castв„ў) feature instead. It then opens Google Chrome at a special web app and streams the video.IMPORTANT:Recent TV models do not utilize the Screen Mirroring feature. Q: Does this app just open a web browser?ДЄ: No, this app converts the video into a format that the ChromeCast can play and serves it from a built in web server. Make sure both devices have a strong wifi connection, and try lowering the bitrate to the lowest level, if this works increase it and start playing again. Q: Why does the video buffer / pause / stop?ДЄ: Streaming video between 2 devices is probably the most intensive thing your wireless network will do. * If the ChromeCast loses connection simply press play in the app, it will resume from the same position. * If Chrome just sends a copy of the web page to the ChromeCast please exit and restart Chrome. * On Mavericks this app will stop the computer sleeping whilst the video is transferring so it can stream the file, but will allow the stream to be dimmed. * Make sure you have a free disk space (the same amount as the file you are playing) * Do not close the app when the video starts playing - its working hard converting the video in the background *** Requires ChromeCast and Google Chrome *** If Google Chrome isn't your default browser please copy the web page address (URL) into Google Chrome.
