Hello,
from yesterday I have Chromecast and I have one question.
My internet provider streams also TV. I can watch it on Android with MXplayer and on PC with VLC. Tv is streamed e.g. with address udp://@239.255.0.30:5000
Can I somehow stream it to Chromecast from my tablet?


Thank you

Native screen casting to Chromecast is here!

The list of supported devices is short, but there is [EXPERIMENTAL] Enable Mirroring from any device to enable it for unsupported devices (note that many devices/ROMs will not work - there are likely legitimate reasons the official list is short).

If you can't do native mirroring, you can try mirror4cast though when I tried it, it was more like watching a slideshow than a video.

Yes, I tried this, it is one of the solutions.
But my tablet has ratio 16:10 and TV is 16:9, so video is not in fullscreen is adapted to the height and quality is not so good.
Also VLC has stated that they will support the CCast in some future release....
So that maybe another option once they get it up and running.
It will be really cool if VLC or MX Player will support CC.

Since I created this thread, I solved my problem by purchasing a set-top-box :)
