The Chromecast - Live TV, screen cast and more

The chromecast is a pretty little thing but it took me a while to appreciate what it was capable of. This is just an account of what I use the chromecast for.

  1. The google cast app has an option of casting your entire screen. It reads as "Cast Screen/Window". Although google says its "Experimental" but I have been using it for a while now and it is pretty stable. Once you cast your screen pretty much everything can be done. Play a movie in any media player or start a slideshow or presentation. Its more or less as capable as using an HDMI cable albeit without wires.
  2. You can configure the chromecast to display weather information. I have found it pretty accurate and it can identify my location correctly.
  3. Play videos via Videostream for Google Chromecast™ chrome extension.
  4. Chromecast is currently not a replacement to your TV service provider but it may very well become that in years to come. You can cast all the five NDTV channels (NDTV 24X7, India, Profit, Prime and GoodTimes) from the official NDTV application available on Android Play Store.
  5. You can also cast AAJ TAK news channel live from You Tube link here.
  6. If you are able to cast your screen as described in point one you can also cast the below channels from your PC or laptop.
I'll try to keep this post as updated as possible. Please share your views about what you think of this.
