A really great vid. I’m probably of the same vintage as your parents. I have a 2013 Sony tv that no longer supports Netflix . So I have been casting Netflix from my iPad to my gen1 early version of chromecast so I feel a level of familiarity with the standard google set up. So I think I’ll buy this new gizmo. Thks also for mentioning the Bluetooth speaker compatibility. This will allow me to watch and listen to stuff without irritating the wife when she is reading. Cheers again.

Hello Sam...just bought this 4k Chromecast and plugs it into a Samsung 4k tv, automatic resolution to 4k 60hz. Strangely, Netflix is only HD, try factory resetting and still Netflix HD. With the same Netflix account, playing on TCL A30 4k is smooth, on the Samsung default Netflix is also 4k. What's wrong with the chromecast?

Might be an issue with the HDMI port you have? Could try other ports and double check the port you’re using fully supports 4K etc

To be honest, you don't need old dumb TV to need that, most of the TV manufacturers even today, save a lot when it comes to SoC's, for example Samsung has very nice panels, but Tizen S***, or if other TV manufacturers doesn't have Tizen and have Google TV, they have so underpowered chips inside 10 years old still, kinda like Router manufacturers do, it works slow has bad WiFi, I have Samsung QLED, even though screen is nice and everything, it has terrible browser, youtube and other apps always have different update cycle and most of the time those apps are very outdated, but most of the time it's problematic, even if it has enough, it's not as good as this external devices, because if you watch 4K HDR movie or something, it requires so much resources, I have never seen TV that doesn't struggle decoding, or at least WiFi or LAN buffering problems. Apple TV, Chromecast (Google TV) or Fire is best option if you want to take care of your nerves, because it's very annoying when you want to watch something and TV has random freezes and buffering etc, when you have 150Mbps+ speed and it still buffering, you check internet from Macbook and it works fine, then you connect Google TV and it works fine, so it's 100% TV manufacturers just saving lots of money on SoC's and you basically get very very old SoC and small RAM, while Google TV or Apple TV just works fine.
