TV out, Miracast or anything like it?

It's driving me nuts. The only thing that stops the the Nexus 7 being nothing more than a toy or glorified ebook for me is the fact I cannot find any form of big screen streaming for it. My 2 year old phone has MHL abilities which is okay but someone must know if there are any plans for the Nexus 7? It seems to be ridiculous to have such a powerful device and not be able to use it on a bigger screen.
I've searched back 10 pages on this subject and found nothing so welcome any fresh perspectives on it.

+1 to BubbleUPnP...
Though screen mirroring is not possible in BubbleUPnP, you can throw any media from it to your TV or other
DLNA enabled devices...
Luckily, my TV has WiFi dongle and Wi-Fi direct feature...
so, once my device is connected to the TV via WiFi-direct, launch BubbleUPnP and select the TV as renderer, I can
throw any media to the TV...
I'm also hoping and wishing for the screen mirroring...

Hi I will look at BubbleUPnP, I've been using Skifta for the time being which does DNLA quite well.
I use my PS3 as a receiver but it doesn't support many file formats.
It's a real shame the Nexus doesn't at least support MHL.

Except mkv files, right?

With a raspberry pi and tassadar's android transporter rom mirroring is possible with reasonable response times

chrome tab casting from android?

I love tab casting from my pc, but it's in another room. I can't pause video that I'm watching. Will chrome for android be getting an update to allow tab casting?

i have been trying to find this out myself.... i wonder if this is possible with a rotted chromecast? any thoughts?

You could use splashtop to connect to the pc casting, and control like that. I do not have a chromecast yet, but that is what I plan on doing as my main pc is several rooms away from the living room tv.

I use Splashtop to cast tabs to my TV via my tablet and it works brilliantly :good:. My PC is in another room but is cabled to the router which sits next to the TV.

Here is a list of Apps that are already working on CCast support
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromecast
As for what I would like to see....
1 - I would like to see the XBMC remote programs allow you to cast to Chromecast as a Target. But I think they would have to add transcoding to XBMC to do it well....
2 - Would like to see a good SCREEN CAST app which I think may in the end not require an APP because it will be native to Android.
3 - The Ability to leverage HDMI-CEC capabilities of Chromecast in an App to enable CCast to act as a Remote Control via IP. (But better would be an IR blaster port in the next generation CCast so those without HDMI-CEC setups can use it as well)
4 - Screen Mirroring support for PC outside of Chrome (Not really an App as much as a program for PC)

Twitch, undoubtedly my app I'd use the most.

aVia streams from Dropbox!
I doubt that Dropbox would add casting to it's own app.
Whats funny is I looked at the DIAL homesite and saw the Bittorrent and uTorrent name registered in their database...So soon your Bittorrent client like Azureus or uTorrent may get the capability to stream to CCast.
Check out who has registered names and prefixes for DIAL support.

BBC iPlayer and LoveFilm.
Although I understand they're both UK and the ChromeCast isn't out in the UK yet...so probably not going to be soon.
I do wonder how many Chromecasts are "live" in the UK though!

Good news for you...BBC has already registered the iPlayer with the DIAL Registry.
TBS has a bunch of names reserved as well one of which seems to be for NBA!

Would love to see VUDU, Amazon as well.
Lets hope google will read this forum.. /)

MX Player
Would love to see a support for MX Player.

Amazon MP3 / Cloud Player

Dailymotion. ( o Y o )

Amazon prime , so i can stream movies.

With Avia, every app that uses external player and supported file format automatically gets Chromecast support. Even BubbleUPNP can play through it. I am not even sure if I really need anything else.

Great Article! As great as the Chromecast is....It is the DIAL protocol itself that is what makes the device exciting and the Potential to change the way we do TV in the future.
Just imagine TVs with Two Way DIAL support...Whats on the TV can be sent to a second screen...
Or content from any device that supports DIAL can be sent to any TV.
No worrying about the Manufacturer keeping their smart Apps up to date anymore.
