Hi...
I bought a Fire HD, 7th gen, and installed SlingPlayer off the GooglePlay Store. Has anyone gotten slingplayer to work along with the Roku handoff option? I thought maybe installing this from Google instead of Amazon might give me this option but do not see an option to hand this off to a Roku or other device.
Thanks in advance

This app turns android device to a Chromecast receiver. As far as I know, this is the only Android Chromecast receiver besides Google's own implementations.
It supports YouTube, Chrome browser tab mirroring, Google Play Music, Google Play Movies, and screen mirroring. Most 3rd party apps using Google Cast SDK should also work. Yes, it works on Amazon FireTV boxes and sticks, and other major brands of Android TV boxes.
This is the trial apk, which has full features, except this current apk will expire on Feb 29, 2016, so hurry up !

Hello huisinro,
App installs OK and looks very pretty.
When I try to cast to it from an Android Phone on the same wifi network it doesn't show up at all, also tried using the Chromecast Setup App from other android phoes too.
EDIT : Tried it on a LG G3 (d855)
Thanks Rob.
Did you try the screen mirroring from the Google chromecast app? It will search for the receivers.
You may need to reboot the router.
Any news on a Amazon App store release? Would love to buy your app but need to buy through Amazon so I can use on my Fire TV and other android devices through their app store.
Still working on a version for Amazon store release, look like it will be next month.
Great, thanks.
Would love support for amlogic devices. If you need a guinea pig im happy to help. Have also bought the paid version hoping support will come one day and help development
I have a Minix X8 and X8H, which are amlogic running Android 4.4, they are working fine. What is your AMLogic device model?
Its a vigica c70t running 4.2.2.
Ok, AMLogic before android 4.4 is notorious in not supporting low level Media Codec API, which is why not working .
I will see if I can use a software decoder.
Can you check if Google chrome browser works on your box?

That'll be what my MX Box needs too, if you recall. Really looking forward to the possibility.
YouTube app works on mine, not sure about in the browser. I'll edit this in a bit after I've checked.
Edit: Tried with https://youtu.be/azV0Y7v6wsg - definitely works in both the YouTube app and in Chrome, but not when attempting to cast it from another device. @huisinro
Apk updated , fixed iOS YouTube crashing issues
Thanks for the update. Did you install the chrome browser from google play?

What is the error when you cast YouTube to your box with YouMap? black screen?
I get unable to play video. Please choose anouther. But other apps that cast video i get a black screen with sound. But when i push the back button i get video for a second befor the app closes. Could it be an issue with stagefright on my device. Ive done a bit of research and most of what ive found points to that. I dont know much about it though
Sent from my SM-G900I using XDA Free mobile app
Yes, it's to do with Stagefright low level decoding API， which AMLogic does not support.
When you use amlogic boxes, does YouTube casting work? What about chrome tab mirroring? What about android screen mirroring?
Thank you for the great app!
I have installed Youmap Chromecast receiver into my Android settop box. where the result is strange. When I enable the Youmap receiver, all of my phone can't find it. After rebooting the router, my Nexus 4 can find the receiver only when the Android settop box connected to router through LAN cable. If the Android settop box is connected to router wirelessly, none of my phone could search it.
In the above successful case, the Nexus 4 can find and cast the screen to the Android settop box (procedure: Setting > Display > Cast screen > Select YouMAP (XXXX)). Although Nexus 4 and my Android settop box support Miracast, I'm pretty sure Nexus 4 is connected to the settop box by chromecast as I didn't enable Wireless Display and the search result clearly stated YouMap. On the other hand, the cast button didn't appear in Youtube app. Moreover, I tried it on my Moto G 2014 and it didn't find the receiver (procedure: Setting > Display > Cast screen).
Device list:
My Android settop box is MiBox 1S with Amlogic 8726-MX running Android 4.4
Nexus 4 running stock Android 4.4
Moto G 2014 running stock Android 5.0
D-link DIR-655 Wireless N router
Hi XDA,
is it possible to share the screen of the Fire to my FireTV?
Like it works with the Fire Phone or the HDX Tablets?
Thanks for any information you can give me!
Regards,
EZTEQ
Just tried it yesterday, I couldn't find it, it is just the FireTV remote, no share screen.
Maybe install all cast on the fire tablet then install allcast reciever on the fire tv?
Maybe after installing the Google Playstore, install the chromecast app?
How do I cast the netflix app on the amazon fire 7 tablet (5th generation) to the tv.
I have rooted and sideloaded all the apps for chromecast to work but netflix just isn't supported???
I saw something about editing the Build.prop but everytime I try that and reboot it goes back to the same thing it was before?
Does anyone have any information cause I mainly bought this table to be able to cast.... bad idea I guess.
I am definitely newer to this, scoured the site and everything regarding miracast is pretty old. Looking to cast to a fire stick 1st gen, or Xbox one. Please help¡
I have never been able to get it to work on the HD+, either. It works OK on my LG devices (running stock firmware).

I am running lnos_ovation-ota-NMF26Q.170104 on my HD+ and can mirror the Nook screen (audio+video) to my Chromecast using the "Cast" button in Quick Settings (note that the "Cast" button is not included by default and needs to be added by editing the Quick Settings).
With some apps like Netflix and YouTube I can choose between the Chromecast or directly to the Panasonic TV ("Viera 60"). With native casting and some other apps like NBC Media the only choice is Chromecast.

OK, thank you, I'll have to check out the chromecast. Thought I'd be doing myself a favor with my kindle and fire stick for mirroring, but that's been a pain in the ass and they are made by the same company. Very Moody. Then I got handed this nook HD+ and like it, hated the b&n os, but that was easily remedied.
Now, when I try to mirror\cast, its like the nook doesn't even try to scan for devices, its like "piss on it, I'm not even going to look", so is that normal? sans the Chromecast \app allowed mirroring...
Thank you guys for your help guys

Here is a brief description of various competing casting "standards": http://www.howtogeek.com/177145/wir...ed-airplay-miracast-widi-chromecast-and-dlna/ -- it helps explain why certain combinations of source/sink don't mix.
Hey guys,
I just got a fire tablet 10 hd and I realized that there's no way built-in to mirror my screen to my smart TV. With my Samsung phone there's a mirror setting right in the settings menu that allows me to mirror to my TV or my fire stick. I also have Air Server installed on my Xbox One which allows me to mirror my phone there, too.
The fire tablet 10 doesn't seem to have any way to mirror anything. I downloaded Air Server onto my fire tablet via the google play store and I was able to mirror the fire tablet to my fire stick, but after, like, 20 seconds, it says "air served closed" and it automatically disconnects the fire tablet from the fire stick.
My question is, is there a reliable app that I could install that could get my fire tablet 10 to mirror to Samsung Smart TV, Fire stick, and or Apple TV? I have access to the google play store.

Can you use the Chromecast and install Google Home from Google Play store
If you don't have a Chromecast. Android TV has a Chromecast built-in. You have it.
Or use TeamViewer.

Oi - please stop responding to old posts (in this instance nearly two years old) with incorrect, irrelevant or incomplete information. Google Home will not run well, if at all, on FireOS v5. Play Store is not natively available on Amazon devices; side loaded builds have proven increasingly unreliable although it remains a viable option. Best course of action is to unlock and install a custom ROM (which brings other problems) but there isn't enough info in the OP to determine if this is even possible.
