TV Cast for Android TV

This app, Video & TV Cast, is designed to work with specific devices such as Android TV, Chromecast TV, and other Cast Devices, as well as devices powered by Google Assistant. It allows users to browse the web and stream various online videos, including movies, TV shows, sports, and music, directly to their Cast enabled device. With just a single tap, users can send the embedded video from their favorite website to their TV or gaming console, with the video appearing below the browser for easy access.

It's important to note that there are some limitations to the app. It does not support certain types of videos, such as Flash video, Google Play movies, Netflix, Amazon, and HBO, as well as other DRM protected videos. Additionally, the app does not mirror the entire Android device, but rather only pushes the video portion of a website to the Nexus Player. To play certain video files directly on the Nexus Player, users can enter or paste the full video URL into the browser address bar.

In some cases, it may be necessary to play the video on the Android device before it can be detected for casting. If there are any connection issues, users can try restarting their Android device, Nexus Player, and wifi router. If a specific web-video, online-movie, livestream, or live-tv show does not cast, users can check the FAQ or report the issue to the developers for potential support in the future.

The developers of Video & TV Cast prioritize user security and only require minimal Android permissions to function. They do not access any personal data, accounts, device information, or contacts. Users are encouraged to always check the required app permissions before installing any Android app.

For those new to the app, there is a quick start guide provided. Users can wait a few seconds for the red icon in the menu bar to change to a filled white icon, indicating that the Nexus Player has been found. They can then search for their desired video on Google or enter the video URL directly in the browser address bar. Once the video link is detected, users can tap on "Tap here to cast" to start casting. To stop casting, they can tap on the cast icon in the menu bar.

The developers welcome feedback and suggestions from users and can be contacted at [email protected]. If users enjoy the app, they can support the developers by giving a 5-star rating on Google Play or purchasing one of the addons. It's important to note that this app is not affiliated with Google, Sony, Philips, Sharp, or any other mentioned products or trademarks.
