Other than a bit of stutter on stremio (fixed with a reset), i've never had any problems playing hdr10+ or dolby vision, both work pretty flawlessly.

@@manistechshack thank you !

All the way Google tv, Xiaomi has Many issues recently

The ONN Android box (2023) is also twenty bucks but has AV1 decoding.

Problem with the ONN box is they're only sold in the US if I'm not mistaken. But if I lived there you can bet that's the first thing I would have bought.

@TheNiteNinja19 Have you had any issues with stutter when playing video? I know the HD model is slightly less powerful, and I'm wondering if that has any effect on video playback.

Do you have a rokuu and can i cast everything on it like obe chromecast

Yes, you still have to subscribe to any services you want to use. So basically, what a chromecast is most most useful for is the same thing a Smart TV is useful for, like KZfaq, Netflix, etc. Only the chromecast (or any trusted Android TV box) is a lot more powerful than what you'd find in most smart TVs, resulting in better video quality and audio quality. On top of that, it runs Android TV, which conveniently allows you to sideload apps you won't find on something like the playstore or appstore. What that means is that it opens up doors to allow you to use apps that can let you watch movies and show for free (which, of course, I don't condone). Basically, your TV is a monitor first, and computer second. Whatever hardware your TV has inside can not be replaced, resulting in a slow and choppy experience using the software provided. An android box like the Chromecast eliminates that problem.

@@manistechshack thanks

Hi there. Can I use it to have my family pictures and videos show on my TV, like those picture frames with SD cards? Is there a program I can install? All my family pictures and videos are already on Google Drive. Thanks.

​@@emailyarabrandaoYes, off the top of my head you just set up screen saver and select Google photos as the screen saver source

Sure ​@@emailyarabrandao

No. It's the same that came out in 2020.

@roamanxo5882 Does it support the new update or is this the latest version? Do you recommend any type?Google chromecast 4k or xiaomi mi tv box S 2gen

I've heard the Apple TV works extremely well with other products in the apple ecosystem. However, I still could never buy it. The software is too locked down and restricted for my liking.

just use an HDMI splitter, its cheap.

😂😂

No, not on the Chromecast, sadly.

Sadly no.

Of course, but make sure the monitor has built-in speakers because the chromecast outputs sound through HDMI and doesn't have a physical audio out port. Alternatively, you could have a Bluetooth speaker or soundbar.

And your tv is 4k?

Huh? Why? I was thinking of getting one

There's an official adapter available for that, but I agree, It would have been so much better to just have ethernet by default.

Planning on making a Shield review soon.

This is a tech channel, and I make these videos in line with what I use these devices for. I don't have a home server for movies since I see it as a waste of electricity with not so many benefits, so I can't tell you what it's like to use a chromecast for that.

@@manistechshack " a home server for movies since I see it as a waste of electricity with not so many benefits " Are you serious about that sentence part?! A home server (if chosen the hardware and sw set up well) doesn't have much impact on energy usage. It doesn't have to be a high powered computer, actually the contrary is true most of the times. The benefits are independence, an own cloud instance with privacy and security and I'm not talking purely about movie collections' privacy, everything else as well. My, my...tech channel...🤣

@roberttranceedm Yes, I'm serious. High or low energy usage, I don't need one. Therefore, for me, it's a waste. Doesn't take much brain power to figure that one out genius. At this point, I'm wondering what you're so butt hurt about, bro. Because I didn't show the chromecast running a plex server? 🤣

@@manistechshack Valid criticism is not being butthurt (nor would it make me your 'bro' in any way). But seeing your reaction, I understand why such important tech details couldn't be included in the video. Lack of intelligence and skills. Such a video, if you are a serious tech video maker or you want to become one, shouldn't be about your use case only, but all that the device and software could be used for and how well it performs at those tasks. You know, informing your audience properly. It wouldn't take a genius to figure that out.

@@roberttranceedm Sure buddy.

I agree they'd all be better options if you have the budget. But they are all more than double the price of a chromecast.

Shield is GARBAGE! Watching on a projector, where you CAN see picture quality, the Chromecast slaughters it in every way, especially with picture! Secondly it will stream atmos perfectly and Shield doesn't at all...
