    So even after 3 years this is still the most useful video about this thing called "Chromecast with Google TV". I'm new to this world and I've been trying to find a simple 101 information about how it is different to that Chromecast thingy in grey or the old Chromecast USB stick, but every other content creator things people just know...
    You're the first one who explained it in simple English and so now I can understand what it is and how to use it.
    Thank you for that!

    I would like to see Google add two things to their device capabilities:
    1. For users, like myself, who have multiple chromecast devices throughout their home, I would like to see them add the ability to 'change device' when you tap the cast icon. For example, if I'm casting to the TV in my living room and I'm headed down to the garage, I'd like to be able to tap the cast button and transfer my cast to the garage TV rather than having to disconnect and reconnect my cast and then resume my video. It's a small detail, but it would be something that I would use often.
    2. I would also like to see Google add the option to use your handheld device for audio while casting. Similar to roku's headphone jack on their remotes. I often watch TV in bed while my wife sleeps and I'm hard of hearing. Having the option to use my Bluetooth headphones connected to my phone while casting video to the TV would be an amazing upgrade.
    I don't know if people from Google watch your videos, but they should. Thank you for your service, sir.

      If you have a google home/nest speaker (or maybe just the assistant), you can say "Hey google, play this on [living room tv]" and it will take whatever is playing and move it to that device. Ive had it work with RUclips, Netflix, Spotify, but it doesn't seem 100% supported as the assistant will complain that Twitch cant do that, so there are probably more holes than that.

    Thank you for this! My first gen Chromecast was dying so it prompted me to buy the Google TV Chromecast. I just got it a couple days ago and I absolutely love it. It's hooked up to a very old, non-smart TV that I refuse to give up because Chromecast changed the game for me years ago. It has everything for me to turn any display into a smart TV, so it saves me hundreds of $$. I just thought of trying to get Duo to work on it, so this helps a lot. For $50 this Chromecast is a steal.

    Brett, tysm for your channel! I know I’m commenting a year after this video was created, but I have stuff in my head. I love my chromecast tv! I also have Apple TV in my bedroom and I was using both Amazon Fire TV (box not stick) and roku on my living room tv. I hooked up chromecast on a loop w/ my samsung tv and samsung soundbar. The settings for the remote are the only thing that took some effort. You can only assign one device to the power button, but I did figure out a way that works. If anyone is having issues w/ that, the home button will wake up the chromecast so you can assign the power button to your tv. The ONLY other issue I have is that it frequently has issues loading YT and will either show the buffering wheel or on the YT home screen it won’t load the content. Where there should be a thumbnail, is a blank placeholder. I’ve tried everything from clearing the cache, updating the app, deleting the app, and all the modem and router resets, and the suggestions on google’s help page. I now know it’s not an issue w/ my wifi or wifi equipment because I replaced my router with Nest and it still has the loading issue. I’m going to move my tv soon and I was going to connect everything through an ethernet switch. But then I realized chromecast doesn’t have an ethernet port! Guys! What do I do?! Help me!
    What I really wanted to share is that the reason I bought chromecast is because I was in the process of trying to decide which smart home system to use, including a mesh system. Since I have apple tv (a homekit hub) and fire tv w/ a couple random Amazon devices, I thought I should try chromecast so I could sample a little from each of the smart home players. And using chromecast nudged me toward purchasing a nest mesh for wifi and I love it so much. Sometimes I also hate it and want to murder the assistant, but that’s just the way puppy love is, right? For real, the learning curve can be incredibly frustrating, but we’re getting there.

    This video was really helpful and made it super easy to compare to our TiVo Stream 4k, which actually has all of this functionality as well. TiVo Stream also has universal search, a universal watch list that integrates across streaming services, and a Google Assistant button and mic in the remote so they're almost identical. And TiVo does 4k/Dolby and HLG. The main thing Google seems to do a bit better is being able to add stuff to a watchlist from other devices. With our TiVo you have to do it in the UI of the device. This was helpful to see how similar they are and that I really wouldn't benefit from the Chromecast over the TiVo other than tighter integration into Google Home and Nest cam...in fact it'd be super cool to see you do a feature comparison between the two because they're so similar!

    Thank you for the excellent in depth review. I was wondering if this can automatically switch framerates? For example, in the UK our content is 25fps/50hz but I'd also need 30fps/60hz for US shows and 24fps/hz for movies. I see all these options in the Display menu but it would be a pain to have to change these for each type of content.

      U gotta use the right apps that do that. Only the shield does it properly from what I've seen. Tivimate and an IPTV service is probably what u need. It does the frameswitch in the app for u so it doesn't have to be device only feature.

      Netflix pays to have it don't be a programmable button. But you should have the Harmony Hub anyway. Who uses buttons in 2020?

      @ransombaggins9301 4 года назад +1

      PhillyDjHook Yes, I understand that Netflix pays for that. That’s irrelevant. Google could have declined the offer and gave us a programmable button that would cater to all users instead of selling advertising on the customers remote. That’s all I’m saying. 🙂 Also, there are plenty of people in 2020 who still use buttons on a remote depending on the situation. 😉

    Not sure how many other people have tried the usb hub. I had the same power issue and just wanted to share that I only had to step up to an 18W power supply (I think the Chromecast with Google TV supply is 15W). This may vary depending on the hub. Mine was a simple usb hub with power delivery, no HDMI or anything else.

    • @EthanSanders
      @EthanSanders 4 года назад +1

      Also, the hub will allow you to expand the storage via USB flash drive, or some hubs might have a microSD card slot you could use for that as well. Another RUclipsr showed how you can run some emulation applications w/bluetooth controllers and having the extra storage for the games is a nice addition. I also plan on trying out wired controllers using my hub. So far, a pretty fun and versatile device!
