I bought a Chromecast and am planning to bring it back to Canada.
My question is...will the Youtube app and Netflix app work on my wife's iPhone with Chromecast?
ie: does it have the casting button on those apps, even though she has an iPhone and is in Canada (never connecting to US App Store for update)
Were you able to get your wife's iPhone casting successfully in Canada? And if you had to use any workarounds would you mind sharing them?

Yep! Casting button worked fine with YouTube and Netflix on a Canadian iPhone and iPad, both of which had never visited US app store.
yeah the apps are universal in that sense. The chromecast setup app for mobile devices is the only one that is restricted to the US
Thanks! I don't mind sideloading for my Android but I would like to avoid explaining workarounds to iPhone-using family members.

Just started a Hulu Plus trial, downloaded the app on my phone but it says video playback is not supported on my phone, and they are working on supporting more phones,etc. Netflix works fine on the Galaxy Exhibit for me. Anyone using Hulu Plus? I'm wondering if it's infact a device incompatibility or the fact that I'm using the SlimBean Jellybean ROM.
It could just be because you are rooted, I can't use flixster because I am rooted

What kind of nonsense is that? Why does the rooted/custom mod allow apps to check if it is rooted or not, can't we fool the app to think it is not rooted?
What other apps do not run when you are rooted?
I got a Galaxy S3 last week, and rooted it. Hulu Plus works just fine on it. Just thought it was interesting.

Timewarner cable live tv app does not work on rooted devices unless you rename superuser.apk to something else and delete test-keys from ro.build.tags= in build prop. Then reboot. Maybe you can try it for other apps?
now if only there was a way to watch web only on mobile

Since it's the DLNA functionality that you want, an alternative to trying to get the Motorola media player back is to check out Qualcomm's Skifta DLNA free app available in the Google Play Store.

I found EZCast APP (Free for both Android/iOS versions) can support Chromecast dongles.
This is the best all-around Chromecast app yet!
I download it from Google Play. Now I can use EZCast APP to cast local documents, multimedia from my devices, internet, cloud storages and social networks to the large display.
Link?

It lags on local videos compared to allcast
Download Cast store from Play store. It has any app related to Chromecast.

Am I missing something? I have some movies I got from there but how do I access them if there's no hub app?
Im wondering if its missing due to the google samsung agreement. Notice how htc is getting rid of their movie service app?

Well it did install, and I started downloading my content, and then it stopped with an error regarding license acquisition failure because the device did not register itself properly.

Same here
According to Samsung on Twitter, you can access your content through the Watch On app. But so far, i cant. i can do it on my Note 3, but not on the Tab Pro 12.2
So you're able to view and access TV shows and movies that you purchased through the Samsung Video app in WatchOn on your Note 3? I have a Note 3 as well but I don't see that option.

Hi,
I have a chromecast and was showing my friend as he was thinking of getting a smart TV but would consider alternatives.
He watches Man Utd games and streams them all.
I was trying to see if I could do that with mine but had no joy, as the game appears in a pop up.
Is it possible?
Cheers

If using android then yes, I do the same thing but using a app called torrent stream, would use the website wiziwig for my links or the app itself for live sports channels. Using an app called bubbleupnp I can cast to my chromecast. This does exactly what your friend would be doing.
