hi,
I use popcorn with the AM7 and I would like to watch it on the TV screen. Do you know how it could be transformed? I don't think chromecast will work (unless someone will assure - popcorn is not gallery...)
1. software option?
2. if not - what cable do we need?
Thx
I'm using it with chromecast, works great!
Popcorn and netflix works great and you can even turn of mt7 display to safe battery.
For kodi you have to keep it on (in screen mirroring modus)

Great news!
Do you use the original Chromecast hardware, or an identical Chinese stick is enough?
Does the Chromecast enable the mirroring icon on the cell screen to choose?
Does it real 1080p on screen without loosing quality?
Also sound?
Thx

Using the Chromecast as well. No problems, it works on Popcorn Time, Netflix, YouTube and you can even show off your own movies and pictures through the google photo app (need to sync them though, I remember)!

Yes in chromecast enabled apps i get the chromecast icon, i have a genuine chromecast and video & audio is good. No stuttering etc (but that can also depend on your router)

Alternate solution: If you are rooted, you can use screen cast to record your screen directly. Or use HDMI output to record on another device, which should work independent of the tablet.

screen cast dont work with tegra 3 only SCR but the sound is not so great...

Can someone who has the Player and an HDhomerun give this apk a try? This looks promising for live TV on the Player...

I tried this last night. It does not work - it just searched for channels indefinitely. Also in the thread there is talk of it not working anymore even on the ADT1. I guess changes to lollipop broke the app.

Well hopefully they get this worked out this is my main reason to buy this so I can ditch comcraps cable boxes
That was broken with changes to Android TV by Google. But give Silicondust some time, they are probably working on a fixed version.
As someone who got to play around with it a lot on my ADT-1, I can say it worked pretty good for a test app on a test build of android tv.

You can still do that without this. If you have an pc you can use as a pvr then there are xbmc addons that will enable you to watch/record live tv from the nexus player. Even better since you get pause/rewind as well, which I assume this app did not have given the lack of storage for live tv buffer on these devices.
Sent from my Nexus 5
I got mythbutnu set up I'm just not a fan of the xbmc style channel guide. Seems like they were working on a lean back style interface with this app that I was interested in
SiliconDust VIEW app works outside TV Input
The latest update to SiliconDust's HDHomeRun VIEW app hit the Play Store on Friday. While it doesn't tune properly from within the TV Input Plugin on my Nexus Player, I can access my channels perfectly by launching the VIEW app itself (which has the same interface as on a tablet). While it's not showing up in the Play Store on the Nexus Player, you can install it from the web version of the store and it will show up properly in the leanback launcher.
The activity on their development forum for Android TV makes me hopeful that they'll have it sorted out soon. The changelog listed support for Android L and Android TV, but only stated support for the ADT-1. I assume some of the remaining issues may be having to do with ARM vs x86, but I don't have an ADT-1 so I can't be sure they don't have the same problems at this stage.
so if the apps works can you tell us does the video stutter when viewing hd channels?

Do you have an AC router
I have a trebdnet AC 1900. Still stutters om HD from time tv time. It may be that the quad atom processor have more power than the amazon fire processor or it may be that it takes advantage of the AC speeds.
Yeah forgot that I have a usb ethernet adapter. Maybe that's why mine doesn't stutter.
Sent from my Nexus 5
I have a HDhomerun Dual. The View app works for me on Nexus Player. Seems like there's a little stutter in picture every now and again (unit is about 1 foot from an asus 68u). But may just be my imagination. Def better than on my Nexus 5 tho, which is practically unwatchable even 10 feet from the router.
Turns out the View app works for my Prime as well. The TV app only gives audio, and only on some channels.
Another app to try

If you can not get it to load email the developer and see if he can give you a beta so you can try it on the Nexus player. It is better than the HD homerun app on the market. It is called Tune N View it works if the Mysterious Nexus box plays MP2, MP4 and AC-2 audio if it does not support natively it does not work. It works on Minix 8 and other boxes that support those video and audio formats. If this does not work I will place my order of this box on Ebay and just return it and work with what I have. I called Nexus support and they could not tell me which video and audio formats this device supports, really? That's like buying a car and the dealership not knowing what engine it has. I am trying this although I have a fully rooted amazon fire tv which works great. I am hoping this device can deliver with this app and the following:
Root to install external hard drive
My nexus 4 has 16 gigs whats up with 8 gigs?
XMBC (just in case Tune N View does not work)
xbox 360 wireless control support
Hdhomerun App
Finally I was able to compare Nexus Player vs Fire Tv for usage with my homerun prime. I can say that it most be the combination of the Asus AC1900 that I got along with the processor which makes it work alot before with much less stutter then with the fire tv box. The one gripe I have with Nexus why provide much less video codecs support off the bat compared to google tv boxes like my sony box. Tune N View works great on Google Tv (one of the few apps I love on Google TV). Basically less stutter device has less power put they have the needed video and audio codecs. The developer is always involved and did I already mentioned that is better than the official Hdhomerun App. Nexus next time don't be cheap and have those video codecs you know that your getting a geeky crowd to buy these type of devices. Overall I believe I will keep this device now that the Hdhomerun is working better on this device. You can also use the DLNA support on Xmbc for viewing channels as well, FYI.
Can anyone make the Tune n View apk available.
With root & running LolliRock, the "No Carrier ASUS FUGU" aka Nexus Player, is not eligible to download the app via web, and I cannot seem to locate a legit apk to sideload.
Looking for this APK as well...

My NP is unrooted but I'm sideloading apps to try them out and I would love of copy of this apk as well. Can't seem to install or download from the Play store either. Thanks.
I'll be curious to see once the VLC for NP is updated to work with streaming over network. That could be a solid option as well.
Thanks.

I purchased an HDHomeRun Prime and it worked great for wired devices on my network. But it didn't work so great in my dualband 5g wireless setup. So that translated to an awful experience with my Nexus Player. I wonder if it is because it seemingly doesn't compress the Live TV cable stream out of the HDhomerun (mpeg or transport stream 'ts' output).
Instead of trying to load a usb wired network connection on my NP, I just sent the device back and got a refund. Great in theory, not so pretty in real world application.
Hello to all,
i would like to know if Chromecast works well on the Galaxy S6 with:
1) ScreenMirroring ?
2) 1080p 60fps made with the phone (smooth playback on TV) ?
3) 4K made with the phone (smooth playback on TV) ?
I really would like to buy this phone and because of the missing MHL port i want to know if it works fine with the above mentioned points.
Thanks a lot
RubenMMS2
Someone with the S6 and Chromecast that could gave this info?
thanks and best regards
RubenMMS2
sgs4 experience
i'm still waiting for the s6 but i have a s4 and a chromecast dongle
when samsung didnt changed anything i'm afraid the default "screen mirroring" function will not find your chromecast
it is only supported by samsung tv/dvd/etc..
you can add a AllShare Cast hub because as far i know this is the only supported receiver
BUT you can allways use the chromecast app to mirror your screen wich works quite well with most things
1080p is ok but i suppose 4K will not work well...
I'm afraid that clonednull is right. I have an S6 and a chromecast and it doesn't find it when using the built in screen mirroring. You have to use the Chromecast app to initiate it.
I had no idea this would be a thing. It used to worked with Nexus 5.
Could this be a Google issue and not Samsung?
The s6 is not on the list of supported devices at the moment. One can hope.
https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/6059461
It is working quite well. I bought one for my partner which works with my S6
You have to use the Chromecast app, but Screenmirroring is supported, as are some of the basic apps like Youtube.
But of course the quality is not as good as it would have been using an MHL-Adapter( if that was possible).

It's working for me on the s6. I didn't watch a whole movie, but I got it to connect with Amazon instant video with screen mirroring. When you first turn on Chromecast in the upper left there is a menu that says "devices." In that menu you will find screen mirroring. It says it's a beta version.
There are already 2 things about this phone that Irk me.. Both being chromecast compatibility and MHL. I hope these issues can get worked out ASAP. dont know why samsung could not make the device at least MHL compatible...
Hello, good day.
I want to mirror the screen of my phone or render pictures and films on our TV, a Philips smart TV with dlna support, of course, but nothing shows up in MirrorShare. Is there any really useful app to do so?

Hello everybody,
I have bought new MATE 9 and i have discovered problem to connect it to my TV Philips 55PUS7181 via mirrorshare.
Both devices are connected to the same wi-fi, also googlecast function with youtube is working, but I cant connect it together via mirrorshare, that I can see mobile desktop on the TV.
It started to look for aviable devices, but my TV is not visible there. I have also tried to install some aplication from Google store for desktop sharing and there it is working, but connection is not stabil, for example video playing ist clicking.
I tried to ask Philips and Huawei customer service, but without answer.
Im really angry because I bought a phone for 700 Eur and i cant use it for sharing !
Has somebody the similar problem or can somebody help me ?
thanks a lot.

What exactly are you trying to Mirror? Videos to play from your phone or watch movies? Or are you trying to just show your screen to show pictures, etc? If it's videos, download Bubble UPnP. It works very well for casting. Click on the left pull down arrow where it shows Local Renderer and select your Phillips TV as default. Then try playing a video to cast.
I have same problem with Sony TV. 4k video have problem. Pictures show only black screen. Mirror screen when working not show in horizontal orientation. On my another phone Nubia Z11 works everything. Mate 9 very bad experience.

Yes it is Android smart TV Philips 55PUS7181.
Have the same problem with Sony Android Tv, using MirrorShare option from taskbar
Even if your Android TV says there are no updates available try opening the PlayStore and searching for 'Google Cast Receiver'. I did and sure enough there was an updated version.
This might be totally unrelated to your problem but it did fix some issues I was having casting from my Mate 9 to a brand new Sony Android TV.
Sent from my MHA-L29 using XDA Labs
Mate 9 definitely works with Chromecast protocol so if TV works with Android TV it should work
I have the same issue with a Philips 55PUS6561/12 TV and with a Huawei P9 phone. Youtube's Cast for example works perfectly fine, but the phone's Mirrorshare function cannot find my TV. Has anyone found a solution to this?
