Streaming question

Post by BIGRON »

Hi chaps , a mate has suggested we try and watch the game tomorrow , I only have an Android phone and when I want to watch things on u-tube I get it on my tv by using Chromecast , would I be able to cast the game to my tv from my phone using this device ?? Many thanks in anticipation .

You can cast your entire screen on Android phones I've had. If you swipe down from the top of your screen twice, is there a 'screen cast' option?

No , when I watch programmes on u-tube a Chromecast sign shows in the corner I click on that and it casts , this also works on when I have a bet on sky bet I can cast the races to my tv .

When you use the app on your phone it'll find your Chromecast and the little symbol will appear.

You might even be able to test it now. Be warned it's a bit jittery compared to other methods of watching.

Casting is awesome but you need good strong Wi-Fi to get the best out of it

One last question , I've paid the tenner for the game , do I need to get an app to see it , as you've no doubt guessed I'm pretty hopeless with this type of thing 🤣🤣

You can either watch it through the app or the Orient website. You can cast your app or webpage to your Chromecast and it should work.

The best, most stable, least jittery connection I've found is when I've loaded up the Orient website on my laptop and then run a HDMI cable into my TV from the laptop.

Agree, if anyone in same premises watching Babestation it will sap the energy of the signal.
