Thank you for your clear tutorial. Often, when making one, people don't realise that they go too fast for someone to digest the information. Because the film maker knows so well what to do, they often don't realise that someone not knowing needs time to process what is being told to them. You spoke at a good speed, and clearly Thank you.
This was the most perfect step by step video I have learned from. I spent two hours trying to get past a certain point and found your video. I am set up completely in the few minutes listening to this. Thanks a million.
I haven't yet got the Chromecast, but I'll be getting one soon in a few days. I went online to familiriaze myself with the set-up. Thanks a lot, Awkward Bob ..... you have taken great pains to be clear to a novice like me. Thank you.
Thank you for the clear, step by step instructions! I have been explaining it to my cousin by phone and email/texts and confusing her more with each attempt. Great job!
very clear, helpful and easy to understand demo. i have not yet installed but going by this demo, it is so very easy, a small child can. Thank you for making efforts to keep it simple and effortless.
You were a big help, Thank you so much! Thought it was broken we had it disconnected for awhile due to a room makeover . Just needed someone to go over it, thanks.
Thank you for showing me how to set my Chromecast. I have been struggling for almost a week. I read the instructions, tried step by step, hours of no success! I just watched your video on my phone and followed your instructions and I'm connected!!! YAY! Now I can watch Netflix and TH-cam on TV. Much appreciated. And I did make the subscribe a pretty gray👍😀 ty
OUTSTANDING HELP it was not recognizing or starting up going into my account and with the instruction you gave me got it done thank you very much great job
Thanks for the lovely presentation and excellent guidance on how to install and use Chromecast. Prior to watching this, I only had a vague idea of what Chromecast was. I'm better informed now - great stuff!
Excellent - first class. I did subscribe but as I don't use TH-cam. Thought I may be making a donation to you - you are worth it. Many thanks nevertheless.
Thank you very much.. This video was very helpful setting up my second Chromecast device. The only trouble I had is that my device is a second hand so I just had to factory reset the Chromecast and then everything was fine. =)
Anything that doesn't have the "cast" ability can be screen mirrored from the device. If you use google chrome web browser on computer you could cast a browser tab as well.
Hi thank you so much for this video on the chromecast 3rd generation as I live in London and it said to plug the chromecast into the plug socket and then into the back of the tv but then the chromecast hooked up to my WiFi but then my phone wouldn’t communicate with my tv, what madness and then I just watched this video and hey presto it’s working so thank you very much
Thanks for the awesome video tutorial. However, I just have a question though, what if you do not have Wi-Fi on your home, just your phone with a data plan, does it connect to the phones Hotspot? Thanks in advance.
I received a Gen3 Chrome Cast for a Christmas gift. I almost got it set up right . . . but now it's totally right, Thanks to you, Akka Bob. Much appreciate the info and the video to back it up. ( PS/ I live in rural Tasmania, Australia. Can't WAIT to show my neighbours, in the back paddock. Struth !!)
Thanks guys for this instructive vid. Shout out to the little angel at the end of it, getting involved in the whole process and requested/reminded us to LIKE & SUBSCRIBE!👍 ✔️👏
wow the explanation this man was so easy and clear. everyone should be able to do this. you have to look like him to know technology for sure.. this guy is not that he looks smart but he is! and I have no doubt that little helper right next you will be awesome also. thank you so much sir for the excellent explanation.
Ok just watched 2 you tube videos on setting up chromecast on android phone and will admit it was pretty informative and things seemed to have went fairly smooth except for one small detail.not one time in either video was what was showing on their screen was actually what was showing on mine.nothing on my screen appeared on their screen.i didn't see the little clown figures jumping around doing little tricks saying looking for device.only message I get is "get the app"it stays there.im aware the problem is my own to deal with.im looking for instructions on how to setup chromecast on an android phone.sorry but I'm 69 years old and can remember directions and they came with everything you bought. Now if you buy a phone you have to also buy a book or manual showing you how to use it.i was looking on internet for manual when directed to the videos on you tube so safe to say I doubt I find the manual.thanks for listening
Great video. As you showed in the video I eliminated the power brick and plugged the USB end of the power chord into 3 different USB ports. Each time I received an on screen message telling me each USB port did not have sufficient power to do this. There was a diagram illustrating the power brick to be plugged into a wall outlet. Thoughts? Thanks in advance for your help and keep up the good work.
Yeah, technically it should be plugged into a brick. For the older models (Like the one in this video) you can usually get away with plugging into a tv.
I have a question , does it show only the aplications (TH-cam, Netflix etc. ), or the home scren or everything that is showing on your screen device. And this was the most helpful video you can finde on youtube. Thank you so much.🙂🙂
Mine is buffering on the part that says "Linking your Chromecast". I waited for about an hour. Still the same. I tried another cell phone but still doesn't work. The TV is showing the photo slides. Do I need to return this thing? Thanks for sharing.
sir you are a big help....thank u very much with your step by step tutorial.. at last my chromecast was open n now i can watch NETFLIX n TH-cam.. again thank u very much GOD BLESS ...
This was awesome can I do this with the 3 scam my buddy tv?? It looks the exact same and I installed like you showed me but it’s not going to show up on google home right?
many thanks Sir, appreciate very much the support you offer people all over the world, this great!. I have problem casting from chrome web browser, whenever casting not finding the device, appreciate your support.

I have 3 chromecasts installed, but not all show up on my devices. How do I fix this?
very clear, helpful and easy to understand demo. i have not yet installed but going by this demo, it is so very easy, a small child can. Thank you for making efforts to keep it simple and effortless.
Bob, you just helped me decide whether or not to get a Chromecast! Setup up looks super easy. I can't wait to try it out when I get it! 👍
Awesome! I hope you enjoy it!
Thanks for your information slowly and slow in speech .Giving time to take it all in. Best I've seen!
As a technophobe, these instructions made the process really easy. Thank you so much.

Please reply to my question Bob
Hey man! Thanks for this, very helpful. Could you cast anything and everything, like something from a zoom meeting?
Anything that doesn't have the "cast" ability can be screen mirrored from the device. If you use google chrome web browser on computer you could cast a browser tab as well.
Good helpful video. Many thanks. Your assistant is on the ball!
This was rly good ty the ending with ur kid was adorable XD

Yes, you can use your phone as a hotspot, but would have to cast with another device

Great video. This helped a lot. Thanks😊
Great. Now my illiterate brother and my sister who doesn't have a phone can not watch TV when I'm not at the house 😂
Helpful video. Will the video keep playing even if your screen turns off? And will it be able to stream from the lesser known streaming apps too?
Nicely Explained""

I have a question , does it show only the aplications (TH-cam, Netflix etc. ), or the home scren or everything that is showing on your screen device.
And this was the most helpful video you can finde on youtube.
Thank you so much.🙂🙂
There's no user interface on screen at all. You use your phone. Cast what you want from your phone to your tv.

Hi, great video thanks. If using Chromecast can you add the TV as a device on a Google Home speaker group?
Hi great video. I read that chromecast can also turn on and off your tv. How is this done? Thanks
Great question. If your TV has a CEC setting you need to enable it... And the power source has the be plugged into the wall
many thanks Sir, appreciate very much the support you offer people all over the world, this great!. I have problem casting from chrome web browser, whenever casting not finding the device, appreciate your support.
Is computer connected to same WiFi?
Thank you for this review 👍
