    After using Chromecast for over a decade one of my Chromecast devices has stopped working. This was the only video on TH-cam after watching many that got it back working. WELL DONE!

      Mine stopped working too. Tried resetting it unpowered and repowered devices.
      It's streamed great four years until the other day when I lost Internet service. After that repair and regaining internet no Chromecast device found.
      Had my Chromecast plugged into port number to of my stereo receiver. From the receiver goes into my Samsung TV there a dmi cable. It worked great for years but now I can't get it to.
      I tried rebooting everything including Chromecast device.
      Still no Chromecast device found?
      Do you know what I can do next?
      Still on Chromecast device found on my phone.
      For example on a TH-cam video I have the Chromecast symbol button but when pressed no device found.

IF MY INFO IS GONNA BE PROFITTED FROM, I THINK I SHOULD HAVE THE CHOICE TO SELL AND GET THE PROFIT FOR MY P-E-R-S-O-N-A-L INFO. ITS ALL GARBAGE. Really really glad i am 45, a heavy smoker, partied like mad, still drink heavy because i want to remain on this ball of crap as little more as possible. Not just because of chromecrap etc. Just getting sick of how everything is supposed to helo us but it hinders us and helps the greedy rich if anything.

    These setup videos are incomplete. You can also use your phone hotspot to setup. After setup you have 2 methods to cast to tv. 1. "Mirror" via the home app. This method means you cannot use your hp for other things but it's free and does not consume any hotspot data. 2. "Cast " using the cast button on the videos itself. It will consume hotspot data but you can use your hp while casting. Note: my telco plan comes with unlimited data with 5gb limited hotspot

      In nutshell, this means both casting device and Chromecast itself has to be in same network. However there are many possible setups. For instance my Chromecast 3 gets internet via Ethernet and I cast mostly via 5 GHz Wifi and 2.4 GHz Wifi but as both wifi interfaces and ethernet switch are bridged on router and access point, it runs perfectly :)

      @Michael Butterworth Try playing an app, such as Netflix on your phone or tablet or laptop and click the "cast" icon or "play on TV" and it should start to play on the TV. To use it just treat it like you are watching something on a smaller screen and want it to play on the TV. Start the app playing on your phone, have your TV on and hit the icon and enjoy! I hope this helps. If not just search more videos on how to use it. Andy Slye has an old but good one: th-cam.com/video/xKfNTeYN3yU/w-d-xo.html

    Ah so it's depended on a wifi router, that's one way to kill my interest in it.
    Was thinking this would be an excellent gift for some older folks i know (who are not tech savy) to have for their forest summer cottage place, so they could watch movies and other things on the TV via their phones they got but having to explain to them how this works plus having to teach them how to turn their phones into mobile hot spots to trick the chromecast into thinking there's a wifi-router would be a huge pain, especially since they'd most def. forget how to do it. Wouldn't be an issue for me personally but for old people this would be an undertaking and i have no mood to play tech support for them every time they forgot something.

    I have simple requirements. I enjoy watching Guitar videos on my laptop in my studio. I would like to be able to see the videos on my big screen TV. Will Chromecast do this for me? Thank you.

    Can someone clarify: I was to cast Hulu on my TV (using Chromecast). On my my device that I’m using as my “remote” (for example, I downloaded the Google Home app on my iPad), I need to have BOTH the Google Home app and the Hulu app downloaded on try iPad?
    That just seems like unnecessary waste of storage space. A Roku stick sounds more reasonable than this Chromecast device.

      You don't have to have both apps. On all devices

    • @BoltRM
      @BoltRM 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Depends on what you want to do with it. Roku stick is more versatile.
      Chromecast was created years before the Roku stick, Roku now has more features. Why do you want to set up a Chromecast if you prefer the Roku features?

    could someone explain to me what the purpose of having a chromecast is? Most smart TV's already have build-in apps like: TH-cam, Amazon, Netflix... or an Internet browser. And the youtube app on smartphones has a "stream to TV" option. So I don't really understand the purpose of having this devise.

      Hi! Well, if you have an older non-smart TV *HDMI* *External* *Monitor* or a smaller *Portable* *HDMI* ready *Monitor,* you can _"Mirror Your Phone Screen"_ and enjoy a huge Real Estate Experience while drawing on your Android #ArtFlow App (that may still have a free version).

    Oh wow. Just tried it. What a train wreck nightmare.
    Last month we tried and failed and got the thing to just display pictures. Today I tried to jump back in and get it working for real this time. 2 hours later, many videos websites and forums, can’t get it 😂

    Nice Simplified Set-up Instructions! Wondered if anyone here knows how to make our *Chromecasts* _"lock-down"_ as *Secure* on the *SSID* *List,* that everyone can see? My Chromecast always shows up as unsecure in the SSID window. Thus, I simply unplug my little "puck" when I'm done and place it back in the box until the next casting time.

    I have a question. Is there any channels that costs any subscription. And I think some of them are expensive.
