Dose any body know how to enable beam to tv on stock Lg g2 streaming player like its on stock video player
Let me be more clear if I'm watching video from internal memory something i took with the camera or i downloaded to the phone and I'm using stock video player i can press the little smart share button on the top and it will let me select if i wont to play or beam to the TV.If im watching video from a website or facebook and I select the stock steaming player the icons are missing . Is there any mod for that or something I can edit with root explore to get that to work .
I want to know this too...
Just click on the miracast option on your phone and enable you miracast on your TV. It should do a quick handshake and viola...Thats how I do it, but u gotta have a miracast TV thou or you can get a miracast box if your TV doesnt have it.
The only think is that the miracast takes forever to content and the screen got to stay on the phone once goes dim the tv goes dim not a big fan of the miracast. The play to tv is much better

Howdy Folks,
Ive recently changed from a Galaxy S3 (which played video I could through at it without a problem) to a Note 3 and it seems that AC3 isnt supported natively for it. If I run the Video with MX Player's software decoder it all works fine. Its a major annoyance though having such an expensive replacement that doesnt perform the same functions as an older unit.
Anyone else able to confirm it wont play AC3 Natively, is there some codec app I can install that works with all video player apps ??

To be honest it's just as easy to use VLC or MX or something similar, native video player is limited (slightly) I can't really comment as to what it plays cause I have yet to use it, Straight to MX for me.

Why Samsung chose to drop AC3 native support from the Note 3 is beyond me, I think even the Note 2 had AC3 support out of the box as did the Galaxy S3 & 4.
here's the solution

Hi!
I was going the get me a second Chromecast, but went for the Nexus Player instead.
This was a huge mistake. The cast function is useless. It does not work the same way as the Chromecast.
I have tested HBO Nordic, the picture gets all distorted. Then I tested CanalDigital Go (Norwegian tv distributor), here the audio is out of sync with picture.
Both these apps works great on a Chromecast. The Nexus player is up to date, have tried factory reset
Anyone with similar problems?
Being from Canada i can't test those apps unfortunately. However in my experience, casting to my Nexus Player is MUCH MUCH MUCH better than to my Chromecast. Unfortunately it seems that a lot of people have the same issue as you
I, too, can't speak about the apps OP mentioned. But like koperniczx3, I also find the Nexus Player to work MUCH better than Chromecast.
Exakt same problem with HBO Nordic on Nexus player. Distorted picture every few seconds. I so wish I had bought a second chromecast instead
Works perfekt on chromecast.
Just sideload those apps to the nexus and you wont have to cast.....or load lollirock on it and just install from the playstore

Same issue here, new start-up called "iflix" just available where I live. Able to cast to chromecast, but not available on Nexus Player. Maybe the DRM is why it won't work. Only hope is either dev fix the casting (to nexus player) , or release tv version.
I haven't noticed any major problems with casting to the Nexus Player. The only issue I can think of is that the Chromecast plugin for ES File Explorer doesn't seem to work with the Nexus Player but I've already emailed the app developer about it. Google occasionally releases software updates through Google Play to improve the casting feature on Android TV devices. If you use the Hulu app to cast from your phone or tablet to a Nexus Player with AdAway installed, this actually works surprisingly well because it even skips the video ads.
Nexus Cast not working properly

I am having same issue. Casting work well with google products but other apps it works well with chromecast but when I cast from same app to nexus player it doesnt work at all. Example of apps (CTV GO, Lynda, Plualsight) they all work well with chromecast but not with nexus player cast.

The only time I have noticed casting to work better on a Chromecast is with casting a screen. The apps I use either work the same, or better on the Nexus Player. But sideloading and having the app on the Nexus Player is so much better than casting anyways. But some people are more technically advanced than others. You have to control these apps with a mouse but to get around that, just use Droidmote. This Nexus Player has been the staple in our living room and we love it.
I have had both a chromecast and nexus player. (currently posting this on my nexus player with a logitech k400 plus) I have found that casting works way better for me on my Nexus Player. On my chromecast it would drop off constantly, and video quality would go down so I would stop and restart the app/video to get it good again. I have had zero problems casting to my Nexus Player. I cast from my Nexus 6. Although I don't cast nearly as much as I use to being HBO GO is now fully supported and available on the App Store. That was the main thing I casted. I still cast Fox Now, Watch ABC, NBC, CBS and FX Now. I never have any issues. It sounds like a problem more so related to the apps you are casting.
