This app, Video & TV Cast, is designed specifically for Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick devices. It allows users to browse the web and stream or cast any video they want on their Fire TV. With just a single tap, users can send embedded videos from their favorite websites to their Fire TV. The app will display the discovered video below the browser, and tapping on the video link will immediately send it to the Fire TV.
However, there are some important notes to keep in mind. This app does not support certain types of videos, such as Flash video, Google Play movies, Netflix, Amazon, HBO, and other DRM protected videos. It is recommended to test websites and videos in the free edition before upgrading, as upgrading will not magically make casting work if it fails in the free version.
It's important to note that this app does not mirror the entire Android device, but only pushes the video portion of a website to the Fire TV. To play mp4, m3u8, or other video files directly on the Fire TV, users can enter or paste the full video URL into the browser address bar. Sometimes, it may be necessary to play the video on the Android device before the link is detected for casting.
If the connection does not work, users can try restarting their Android device, Fire TV, and wifi router. If a specific web-video, online-movie, livestream, or live-tv show does not cast, users can check the FAQ or send the website and video link to the developers for support. Leaving negative reviews without providing information about the issue will not give the developers a chance to help.
It's also important to note that this app only requires minimal Android permissions to work and does not access personal data. Users should always check the required app permissions before installing any Android app. Refunds are only available within 24 hours of purchase, and users must submit their Google Purchase ID.
To get started with the app, users should wait a few seconds until the red icon in the menu bar changes to a filled white icon. If the Fire TV is not found, the app can be restarted. Users can then Google their favorite video or enter the video URL directly in the browser address bar. After a few seconds, the video link will be shown below the browser. If it says "No videolink found to cast," users can play the video locally in the browser and then open it in fullscreen mode before trying again.
Finally, the developers encourage users to share their suggestions or report any problems with the app. If users enjoy the app, they can support the developers by giving a 5-star rating on Google Play. It's important to note that this app is not affiliated with Amazon, Fire TV, or any other mentioned trademarks, and was not created or endorsed by Amazon.
