[Q] mirroring issues - Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a W6 Sony TV , when mirroring from my Z3C on games , you tube it's fine . however when mirroring using Skype or watching a film, the picture freezes every 5 mins or so. I have a 40Mb line (BT) and the picture on the phone is fine and does not freeze . the phone is locked using the latest firmware , I don't have any battery saving on . any ideas??

Are you using the TV directly or a Chromecast or Roku/Roku HDMI stick? I have no issues with Chromecast. have not tried it on the Roku stick though.

Direct , not using any cast hardware bar the TV

Netflix will not cast:unlocked and rooted 44s OEM

I have three OPOs which will play Netflix just fine, and cast non-Netflix video from the phone to the TV, via Netgear P2TV dongle or strain to my Samsung TV. However, I can not find a solution to cast Netflix from the OPO to the TV! My G3 works just fine, either directly to the TV or via the NetGear. Both phones are on KK 4.4.4s
I've searched a bit for solutions about XDA and other locations, and see very little about this, and no answers. Does anyone have success casting Netflix, and if so is there something additional/different than standard casting that I need to do?
Thank you.

I can't use Cast to screen mirroring my phone to TV. There's no device found?

The TV works fine with another phone but not with my phone. Mine use Lineage 14.1 and Cast didn't see the TV. Although if I use Youtube app to cast, it works. But I don't want to just cast Youtube videos, I want to project my phone to my TV. Anyone can help me fix this? I've already tried some others miracast/cast screen/... but got no luck except Youtube.

Cannot successfully Cast using this phone

Hi all, does anyone use this phone to cast to Chromecast? I cannot get this to successfully Cast to any of my four devices which are Android TV, Samsung TV and two Chromecasts. I've tried using VLC player and Plex to cast and the same thing happens with both, the TV screen goes blank you can see it's trying to do something, and after a few minutes of this it just disconnects and fails. Occasionally it will play about a minute of something and then just disconnect and fail, this is very frustrating. The weird thing is that casting YouTube works fine.
Can anyone with this phone confirm casting works or not for you? Any ideas on how I can fix this?
Thanks!
casting fow.chromacst works perfect for my, chinese x2.pro

Ambient Mode not working on TCL TV with Chromecast

I am a photographer and had happily been using Google Photos to cycle images to the TV using the Ambient mode of Chromecast. This was with a Gen 1 Chromecast plug-in in the HDMI port all of my TV. I recently bought a new TCL TV with Chromecast built in and figured I would no longer need the plug-in version. That doesn't seem to work and although ambient mode is there, Google photos will not appear on the TV. If I plug in the old Chromecast dongle into an HDMI port oh, that still works fine. The idea however was to be able to use the built-in Chromecast device with nothing additional. No joy so far.
