This makes some sense to me, as screen mirroring could be a feature that is easily used for spyware.

Exactly what do you have connected to what and how?I have gotten a Chromecast, and hooked it to my TV.. but it is not outputting a surround signal,it seems..Does anyone, know if and how it would be possible to hook the chromecast up so that , when streaming from utube or HBO go, netflix, I could get a surround signal to my surround sound processor? Hooking it into the tv hdmi port seems to not work..
Exactly what do you have connected to what and how?
If your TV and surround processor support HDMI-ARC (Audio Return Channel) then 5.1 content should pass over.
If one or both of the two do not support ARC, then you will need to connect your TV's digital audio output (usually optical) to your surround processor.
Chromecast will work with both your iPad as well as your Nexus.I ow an iPad and bought a plug in for it so I can connect an HDMI cable to it. Well, when I travel I always forget a HDMI cable.
Now that I have a Nexus 5, how does Chromecast work? Do I need a certain app on my phone, or does any video app support Chromecast? I'd like to be able to add videos to my phone, and put them in the TV.

But for travel you'll want to bring your own router as hotel/free WiFi usually doesn't allow clients to see each other so your devices wouldn't be able to talk to Chromecast.
Sent from a device with no keyboard. Please forgive typos, they may not be my own.
I always pay for my WiFi and never had an issue with devices seeing each other. But, thank you for the information.
Hotel may have issues aside from AP isolation to mess with you...
Some use Certificate Auth and require you to go to a web page to accept terms before it will allow you to connect to the net.
Now there may actually be a way around it by casting a tab to the CCast (if you can connect at all) and maybe that will work but it will vary from hotel to hotel and I haven't had a lot of chances to find out what all the limitations might be.
Fixed. Looks like I cropped off a number when I cleaned up the area.Discussion thread in part 1d "Can I use Chromecast outside of the United States?" appears incorrect, can you update this Bhiga
Chromecast apps don't install on the Chromecast itself, but to answer the gist of your question:

Yes, official apps will work fine on a rooted Chromecast.
The only ways I can think of that an official Chromecast app would work not work on a rooted Chromecast are:
- You have an old custom firmware using Kyocast and the Kyocast server has been taken down
Solution: Upgrade to Eureka-ROM (better) or uninstall Kyocast- You are using a completely custom whitelist* that doesn't include the official Google stuff
Solution: Switch to the Team Eureka whitelist (better) or the Google whitelist- You are using a DNS abstractor (Unotelly, Unlocator, etc) and the app/service you're trying to use is incompatible or otherwise "sensitive" to that.
Solution: Try it with Google DNS. If it doesn't work with standard Google DNS then it won't work on a non-rooted Chromecast either.
Your DNS service may be able to fix the problem (as Unotelly did for HBO GO), so check with them.- The app you're using requires some new function/feature included in a newer build than you have loaded
Solution: Be patient and wait for Team Eureka to update Eureka-ROM. They're pretty darn fast about it, and sometimes they squash Google's own bugs along the way too.
* @Team-Eureka, does the Custom Whitelist option completely override the Google defaults, or does it add to them?
Our custom whitelist just adds to google's list, so that way we don't have to wait on @Kyonz anymore to update his server
Does that apply to the "Locally Stored" option (I used the wrong words in prev post) as well, or is that truly "whatever is there" like the Other (please specify) URL?
Ahh, gotcha. Thanks for the clarification!When you use the Locally Stored option for whitelisting, it will either use the default applist that is compiled into the firmware (which is a copy of Team Eurekas whitelist at the time of the build), or the last pulled whitelist from the last set provider. (So, if you had it set to use googles whitelist, and then change it to locally stored, it will use a cached copy of googles whitelist file).
Ahh, gotcha. Thanks for the clarification!
Guess the only way to really break the whitelist is to point to a custom URL that doesn't have anything.
Very good! Always protect against user error when possible.
Let us know how it goes - I'm definitely curious as to whether your AVR can pull the audio without relying on the TV to send it back down. I can't really think of a technical reason it shouldn't be able to. The audio return is really meant for when the TV is doing on-board decoding, like when using an on-board QAM tuner.
Root or not to root? I have a rootable one but don't have access to a computer at the moment thought. And I know there is some apps that I can use local files with and screen mirroring with but was there a way to root from a android terminal just curious or a imager app? Kinda wanna use this kinda been putting it off lol
