You need a browser with flash support I recommend dolphin browser. You also need to install flash player depending on which android you got. Even then its finicky but works.

FYI, orb is a free PC program that allows streaming videos and music to clients (such as phones).
I use Orb mainly to watch recorded TV shows and Live TV shows on my phone. Let me know if there's an alternative method.
AFAIK, there are 2 ways to use Orb on Android phones.
1. Orblive app. The free version (with limitations) works well on Vogue and I assume the full one too. But the full version costs $10.
2. mycast.orb.com (free): The only working format for me is 3gp-aac/rtsp. But the problem is I think it's played in default video player (I don't know what it is) but I can't play it full screen. There are black bars on 4 edges.
How do I change to a default player that allows full screen playback?
Thanks for turning me on to this. It works very well too. I can watch live tv, recorded tv, schedule recordings, moniter my webcam, you name it. Thanks again
Can I play music from my network storage without my PC being on? I use Orb on my PC, phone, and Xbox 360.

Is it possible to stream live cable tv using the tv app on the One?
AFAIK the TV app is supposed to be used along with your cable TV, not in lieu of it.
It doesn't have streaming capabilities, it just adds to the TV experience.

Oh.. Are there any programs which will allow me to stream live tv? I remember seeing a video of the HTC One being able to stream tv but I think that was with the HD Media Link thingy..

I can cast video from that site using Android Chrome on my mobile. Load up the video, hit full screen, and the cast icon should appear.
Alternatively BubbleUpNp should be able to cast net based streams.
Alternatively you should be able to tab cast from Desktop Chrome.
It works!
It's so easy! thank you

I have a note 2 with a cracked screen that's too expensive to fix at the mo and was wondering if there's a way to turn it into a Chromecast for my kitchen TV?
I will order a HDMI dongle if it's possible. I'd like it to have Chromecast functionality rather than manually using the device to select stuff.

You can turn it in to a dlna device using bubbleupnp. Install it on the note and on the device your gonna stream from.
It's not the same as chromecast (cast function in apps won't work). But you can stream movies, music, SoundCloud and youtube with it.

Cool. Does it all render on the device I'm steaming from or does it pluck it from online like the Chromecast?

Both, i got an old android tvstick with bubbleupnp installed in my bedroom and i stream stuff from my server, tablet and showbox (last one is a internet stream).
You need to choose a external video player in bubbleupnp on your note to watch movies. I use Archos video player and the free codecpack in the playstore

Yes, AFAIK the Cast SDK 2.0 release had some device-specific key/identifier requirement that sunk the software emulators.
I recently purchased a Google Chromecast and I love it. It is a great tool, but I'm still seeking more bang for my buck.
I installed the Avia app which gives you more use with the chromecast. One thing I found with Avia is that I can stream a video on chromecast, but still use my phone without interrupting the stream. Just like how you can chromecast youtube, netflix, etc. while still being able to use your phone without interrupting the video. Avia works with any app that gives you the option to use an External player. (when you click on the video it says "complete action using" with Avia as an option.)
Some apps however only allow you to use the internal media player that comes with the app which prevents me from using it with Avia/chromecast.
I am seeking to be able to do this with any media app; however, I am specifically looking to use it with my NBA gametime app.
Just some notes: I have the ability to mirror my phone onto chromecast, but the quality is lower and this prevents me from being able to use my phone without interrupting the video.
I am using a rooted LG G2 on sprint Android 4.4.4 running Cyanogenmod.
NBA gametime is Chromecast ready app.
