I use a WD live TV Hub for my movies and a SoundFreaq stereo system for my music, they both have apps that work over either wifi or bluetooth but you can't turn them on/off with those apps and the commands process slower than molasses.
Are there any/what's your favorite IR app that are super customizeable? I'd be willing to spend an hour programming each function from their IR remotes individually but I can't find an app that will let me do that.
Right now I'm looking at "smart remote for htc one" but I can't find a single written positive review of it and the developer site seems out of date so I can't email them questions. If anyone has this app I'd love to ask you a few questions.
SenseTV has a learning option, so you can teach all the ir codes by hand. Other ir apps are in development, but none of them are stable today. So just use SenseTV for now or wait another one or two weeks until one of the devs release a stable alternative

Hey,
look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2271113
This works well for me
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.instantbits.cast.webvideo
Like the title says, it's basically like vGet, allows you to play embedded videos in some websites. Compatibility is not as good but the app is free and will probably improve.
In order to get it working correctly i had to select the "cast icon" inside the app and THEN, try to play a video. There's a small search like button to search for embedded video, if it doesn't start playing immediately. You should also try to select full screen mode, if the embedded video allows it.
Seems to work well, I like it.
Doesn't have the non-Chromecast features that vGet does, but if you don't want those, this just seems to work.
The disconnect doesn't work for me, but as you say, it's new.
Web link at the Play Store leads to the help page and you can contact the dev from there. That makes it all even easier.
I've chatted with the dev about the disconnect, he's using a Google library for that and will discuss with them.
That explains why this isn't the only app with the problem.
Nice guy, patient, and very responsive.
I've played with the app some more and I really like it.
If it's casting and you exit the app, it will recover where it was last, including the player timeline.

Yep it pretty much confirms that Google screwed the Poochle!

I think that the kindest way to describe Google is that genius comes at a price.
And yes, I sent the reply from that same account.
It's just the same old problem that MS now has...
At some point you just get too big to be able to handle proper support because there is no way to know who needs to get the report and even if you get it to a department who might know something about the problem, their stuff is good and some other arm of the company caused it and they have no clue who that is!
In this case, let's hope that they listen to the dev.
It's evidently not something that hits 100% of the time. My report was new to the dev here.
Anyway, I hope that Flash or flv containers get support at some point.
I rarely have a use for this sort of thing but would use it more if I could cast some of the news pages I come across and that's usually for wanting better sound.
Meanwhile, I keep my headset handy while I surf.
I did try an anime site that offered HD mp4 content (ad-supported, mainstream, not piracy, as a note to any passing mods) and it worked great. Some of the grandkids enjoy that, me too really, and the Netflix catalog is limited there. That site wants to open new tabs for videos and this app made it easy to keep track of where I was, tabs are supported.

It depends on which "THEY" the dev gets to talk to...Was it the CCast OS team that screwed up? Was the SDK maintenance team? or was it Google Services team that changed something to break the system? I bet none of those teams even live in the same city let alone talk to each other much.
And don't hold your breath waiting for Flash or FLV anytime soon.
Even Adobe is refusing to support it anymore...Until everyone gets onboard for HTML5 Specs flash is going to be left out in the cold especially as far as CCast is concerned. I'm not even sure it can be transcoded properly.

In addition to mp4 files, Kissanime has flv files wrapping H.264/AAC according to MX Player so for some of these I think it's a container issue rather than codecs. I suppose that the H.264 profiles could be different though.
Both of these are from the same site, the 480 one is flv, the second is an mp4 that casted.
Anyway, I don't expect flv support from anyone for all the reasons discussed. Just tossing out a wish.
Do you guys know if there is a similar extension for the desktop version of chrome?

Works as described. Just need an app that can stream videos to CC from video sites and this is sweet and simple. Connecting and disconnecting from Chromecast seem to work fine.
fantastic app,it improves as time passes!in combination with bubblePnUp I am able to cast-stream movies to my smart tv with great result!

I can't.this function says is disabled.i'll send u with email.
Just wanted to bring to everyone's notice that casting works full time while playing vidoes on Chrome on mobile !!
That is great news! I can't wait to try it out. When did that change get implement ed?
I thought this was old news. Been doing this now for weeks. I assumed it came with the newer google play services that allows beta screen casting on select devices
Months ago - It was enabled in Android Chrome Beta v34 in March this year, rolled out to Android Chrome stable in v35 in May.

I am talking about main app.....not beta....beta was experimental and never worked !!!

Like I said its been in Android Chrome stable since May. It worked just fine when it was in only Chrome beta for me.
Darn can't get it to work on mine....
Thanks

You need to make the video full screen and once you do that you will get a cast icon on the top left corner of the screen !
This has been enabled on my device for quite a while. I happily play videos from Vimeo on my chromecast. :good:
It works for me in Chrome Beta on my tablet, but not in the current official release of Chrome on my phone (Android 4.4.4).
But I wonder how much use this really is. I tested it with Vimeo, but really pretty much every source falls into one of two categories:
a) Already has Chromecast support
or
b) Uses a custom video player, custom DRM or custom app that either you can't play within Chrome on Android or isn't compatible with the Chromecast.
I am trying to figure out a way to overcome the capacity issue on my Note5 using the Samsung VR headset and preferable Samsung VR/Milk so I retain all the control features. I've tried a Seagate wireless hard drive with some success with google cardboard but with a loss of features. When I try the Samsung VR setup I cannot get it to locate the wireless hard drive for content. Any ideas/suggestions either way (cardboard or my preference Samsung VR) would be appreciated.
Hello.
Just read the thread about: [Q] Watching 3D Movies on a network drive.

Thanks for the heads up. So far no luck with a Seagate WiFi too laggy constantly loading and sound is screwed up. I read on another forum someone had good luck with the WD My Passport. I may give that a try.
I also should mention I got emby to work perfectly but had to use BubbleUPnP only would work. Here is the link: https://www.reddit.com/r/GearVR/comm...simple_server/
Hello guys,
Good day to all, I finally got my hands on the most awaited OP3T ...
Everything is smooth as silk till now except for these below 2 apps
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pk.gov.weboc
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.UBLApplication
When opening these apps in the google play store, it says your device isn't compatible with this version
The problem is ... These two apps are most crucial apps to me .. as one is my bank's app and other is my business app.
Any solutions ??
