How do I cast directly from Android chrome to Chromecast without using the home app? From Windows Chrome, it's right on the chrome menu to start or stop casting. There is no cast option on Android Chrome. So, I have to go to Google Home, cast my entire android screen to Chromecast, then go back into chrome, then when finished I have to go back to Google Home, and tell it to stop casting my device screen to Chromecast. Why all the extra steps? What a PITA?!?!??

any luck with it?
Be sure your Google Services is up to date, and be sure your installing Google Cast Reciever to /system/priv-app/. And be sure all TV frameworks & libs from gapps (tvstock) are installed. If that still doesn't work, try finding/installing a compatible updated TvSettings.apk. Good luck!
Hmm, I was only able to cast in youtube manually. As in having to enter the TV Code and physically starting the app.
I managed to update the Google Play Services and install the Cast Reciever and now I got it to connect automatically and start up the app (YouTube only though)
Greetings,
my tv doesn't natively support Google Home, is there a way to install it in some ways?
The TV is a pretty new model and at the moment I have WebOS 5.x
Thanks in advance
Has anyone found a way of doing this? I have an older LG TV (just over a year) cost me a fortune but is on webOS 2.2 and is now the only device in my home I cant control via Google home. I dont want to replace this expensive TV just for that reason.
Thought harmony home hub if you set your lg tv in the harmony and link your Google home on harmony then google home will add it And it will also appear on google home hub display .. be aware that it just give you access to power, volume , channel and imput options with voice but it is better than none
Toolbox 26.1, Fire HD8(10th) 0020367984772. Cleaned, loaded Google Play, xfinity, netflix, etc. Unable to get Chrome or Netflix to cast as it does on my Android phone, or casting via running Netflix via Chrome and trying to cast via Chrome's cast option which is missing. Searched forums found others who asked but no solution. Amazon Video, and Xfinity works (they casts to chromecast). Thanks.

Hi all,
I have issue with my Sony xr 2022 to add it to Google home.
Chromecast is working well, my Google account is well connected, Google assistant is working so i can command my light from voice command from remote controller
I can see the Sony TV on home app on My smartphone but a cannot associate to a house and a room. I have a message like "cannot add this device to this house"
I try multiple smartphone and i try to create a second house in Google home but with no results. So I'm pretty sure the issue is on Google TV
So my Google tv expérience is limited like i cannot display google photo as screen saver per example
As my tv was calibrated i don't want to reset my tv. But maybe a can Clean Data on few android system app to reset something
Can you help me?
Thank you
Hi all, using WVC on an android phone -
Although generally it works well, I get it stop every 10 minutes, I have to open the app, restart the stream and restream it. I am 99% sure its due to Androids aggressive battery optimisation, I have done as much as I can but cannot get the behaviour to change and now giving up on that.
I am wondering if there is any PC based alternative that has the same capability? Web video caster doesn't cast the browser tab, it finds the video stream in the page and sends that directly over wifi to the app which runs on the TV, its full screen and high quality and doesn't use Chromecast.
The TV's built in browser doesn't work for video sites, (probably missing a lot of plugins) and cast tab to the builtin chromecast doesn't work as it only works for "specific sites"
Any suggestions?
Do a Google search for "PC alternative to Web video caster?". You'll get dozens of findings ...
