Anyone know of any sites that stream TV feeds? A friend of mine got me onto vuivision.com which streams NBC, CBS, and ABC. I was able to watch the NY Giants give Oakland an asswhooping earlier. Would be cool if someone could make this into an app to give them more exposure.

I'm not allowed to post a direct link yet, so you'll have to search for "Audiour for Chromecast" on the Play Store or Github.
What is it?
Audiour is a free, open, and anonymous audio sharing platform that let's anyone quickly and easily share files without any hassles like forcing you to create an account or wade through banner ads.
Audiour for Chromecast is an beta-release app for Android that let's you explore interesting content on Audiour and play them either on your phone or tablet, or send them to your TV using a Chromecast device. You can also share content with friends, which plays instantly if they also have the app installed.
It's built using Audiour.com's public API and the source code is available on Github.com
How do I use it?
At the moment, the Chromecast functionality only works if you either have your Chromecast rooted with Kyocast installed, or it's white listed and you can upload the receiver to your white listed URL. Instructions to setup the receiver can be found on Github or in the app's settings screen.
If you just want to playback files on your local device, everything should work as expected.
Wouldn't it be cool if it did...
Why yes, I agree that feature sounds fantastic. I'm extremely open to feedback/suggestions/criticism/praise and would love to hear from you. You can email me at [email protected] and I will try to respond ASAP. Also, if there are any features you'd love to see, let me know. Also, I will gladly take a look at pull requests if you want to contribute.
I have plans to support uploading music shortly, for now just go to Audiour.com, it's nice and responsive and very mobile friendly. I'm also working with the site's founder to add the ability to save a list of your favorite tracks.
Very nice to see this released to the public.
Good work and I look forward to seeing more of your work in the future! Definitely going to have a play around with this.
Awesome app nathanrjones!

Thanks for the feedback guys!
I want to re-iterate that I definitely appreciate any feedback and if there's anything you think could be changed or improved, I will definitely look into it.
If you think it's great as is, sharing it with your friends or leaving a positive review on the Play Store would be awesome.
cant wait to play around with this.
thanks
Hey guys! I'm posting here because I'm not big into the subject and couldn't think of a better group of geniuses to ask. I have an Xbox 360 (Pro I believe, not the newest models) in my upstairs bedroom. I don't have cable TV and only put it there to stream videos from my NAS. My problem is the "system video player" kind of sucks and the Xbox doesn't play "every" format I have. I've had this Xbox for years, never play games online, and have only played Forza single player. Hell, I let my friend borrow it for over 2 years before I remembered I owned one. What I'd like to do is hack this thing to install something similar to XBMC (like I have on my laptop downstairs). I don't care if I'd never be able to login to Live or play games on it again. Am I out of luck with this piece of capable hardware? I'm gonna try to sell it on Craig's list or just chuck it in the trash if I have no options. Any help or links to useful sites would be great. Please keep in mind I have no desire to use "play to" or a Windows PC in conjunction with my Xbox.
Search Google for Xbox 360 hacks, simple as that.

Wow. You must be some sort of genius. Off topic is good enough for me. I did some searching, but just about everything I found is in some way defunct.
dude you dont need hacks to have fun
Seen this on Reddit, works pretty good for MP4 and WebM videos for sites like Vimeo.

*I should mention this only works with Chrome at the moment.
I wish there was some way to use this for Amazon Prime video....casting the full tab isn't a great option for me. Of course a mobile app would be the real answer but Amazon just won't do it!

Agree. Amazon Instant Video is pretty much the only thing my TiVos and TV have over Chromecast for my intended use.

AMEN!! WatchESPN, along with WatchDisney Junior, are the two channels that I have been wanting more than ANY other channel out there! I'm a huge college football fan and although I've got a pretty nice channel lineup and sports package via Charter, there are still games out there that just simply aren't offered around here on Charter. In addition to WatchESPN, I have a 4 yr old son and like how I used to be when I was younger and how most other kids his age are, he LOVES to watch cartoons, especially the likes of Disney Junior, Cartoon Network, Sprout, etc. The WatchDisney Junior channel coming to the Chromecast would just make my (and my son's) day. I think the only thing holding it back is probably having to do something with licensing issues because if you've ever tried to view WatchESPN or WatchDisney on your computer, you must log-in to their service by typing in your cable tv service provider login info before being able to view those channels.
:good:

Likely there would be an app like HBO GO, which requires you to do the provider login on your phone/tablet during setup.
As always, be sure to contact the content provider to request support. Unlikely you'll get a response, but hopefully your vote will be counted.
It works very well for me at this www.mistreci.al with movreel and uptobox thats what i needed

I can tell you from my own personal knowledge that many of the content providers who rely on Cable Company Sub payments are very hesitant to release content for use on Big Screens (which CCast support basically is) which could hurt their Subscription fees later on due to the Chord Cutters taking the cheaper route to their content.
One of the Major hold ups with Time Warner and CBS in that last contract battle was over rights to Internet streaming.
Time Warner wanted the rights to them but CBS wanted to hold on to it for further sales to companies like NetFlix and Hulu or even for their own sites (which the three major nets do now) To a OTA broadcaster it's easier to keep their content free because the content has already been paid for via the Advertising and the goal is to hook more viewers to the shows on their Network.
But someone like ESPN, HBO and SHOWTIME, they are highly dependent on Cable Subs and therefore can't just put the content out there so will likely require a Cable Subscription/Login to view because if they did it on their own without such a subscription or tried to do subscriptions on their own it would be cutting off their nose to spite their face plus add the cost of a Subscription support department they have to pay to maintain their own sub service. So those companies are likely to remain a Cable Sub only service.
This is the one thing Chord Cutters will have to deal with, Sure you can get the OTA stuff and some stuff from low rated networks trying to lure people to their content but the stuff you REALLY want will almost always require a Cable Sub to get.
I have been in quite a few meetings where this is discussed and while the greed makes them think about offering their own ala carte subscription model they quickly realize that no one is going to pay as much for HBO on HBO's website as they currently get from the Cable companies themselves.
And if the Cable companies decide they are not worth having on their system anymore these companies like HBO stand to lose their shirts!
So they back down quickly.
Just a quick comment on the Amazon Prime thing....
I think this may be a sign that things between Google and Amazon are not as rosy as they probably should be.
You would think Amazon Prime was all over this from day one but apparently not.
Now that the SDK is public I expect to see something from them in the future.
Good points. It's not easy to understand the policies and actions of all the parties involved unless you know something about the business model from their point of view.
BTW, it's "cord cutters", not "chord cutters", as in cable = cord. Chord usually refers to music or geometry, but in any case nothing to do with this topic.
Re: Amazon - I wonder if they are coming up with a media box solution too. Could explain their reluctance.
WhisperCast?
Of course Canadians ignore them because they offer no media content here. Which is strange as they're selling these walled-garden Amazon tablets with beautiful screens in Canadian stores, and nothing but Netflix & YouTube to watch on them.
No timeline, but the following was a response from TED support.
TED Support said:
We’re really excited about the Chromecast, and can’t wait to bring it to the TED apps and website. Until then, you can access TEDTalks through our Youtube channel via a Chrome browser and Chromecast via that!

Aside from Youtube, there are a few ways to stream TED talks to the Chromecast, but official support is always preferable.
Other methods that I could find

Plex support TED and BBC iPlayer. You have to install it's media server on your computer and add the channels. Then use it app (cost $5), which can then Chromecast the contents, but Plex detects more than just Chromecast. For BBC iPlayer, I couldn't get it to work due to 404 error, not sure if it's a temp issue or just me.
You could take advantage of the Amazon $5 Christmas giveaway where you down an app using their AppStore and they give you $5, use it pay for Plex.
