Hey there everyone! Chromecast app was recently updated to give certain Android devices the ability to mirror your mobile device screen to your Chromecast device. M7 is supported in the official list but not the M8. The app is beta and available here for download http://gappsearly.com/google-apps/chromecast/summary/33-chromecast/124-chromecast.html
If you have a backup of your current Chromecast app and want to test it out please post feedback. I'm on vacation and won't be able to test it out for a few weeks but curious if it works with M8. Thanks in advance to anybody brave enough to give it a try.
Note also the article indicates GPE and you should restart your Chromecast device for it to work as intended. Sense users take note and please post the ROM you are trying this with.

Thanks for testing it out. I have one of these http://airtame.com/ on the way once it's ready. Looks pretty sweet, won a few awards at CES in Vegas this year. A bit more expensive than Chromecast but appears to be more versatile.

I am using the #mirrorEnabler on Maximus HD 6.0.1 (I am s-off and super CID running on latest software) and every time I try to connect Google Play Services force shut, is there any way around that? Thanks

Won't be able to chime on until I'm done with vacation but looking forward to giving this a try. Seems like GPE might be a requirement though.

Thank you very much, If u manage to get it working please let me know.

Just FYI #mirrorEnabler is working well for me on Venom 1.8.0. So GPE is not a requirement.

Good to know, I was looking at venom the other day so I might give it a try. Btw is "google now everywhere" command working on Venom? cause I can not get it to work on Maximus HD.
Thanks

Finally got a chance to try this out using the enabler linked a few posts back and worked quite well on insertcoin-m8 sense 6. With landscape sense it's even full screen and everything I can use worked fine with sound (even ViPER4Android worked!) Nice find and great feature to have.

Guess you would want to try this new product

Hi Matt,
I suggest you try this new screen casting device available as a software download at Zoapi Hub.
Have to install the Hub software on Intel NUC box and connect it to TV. It supports simultaneous connections from different networks, like Wifi, Wifi-Ap, Ethernet, etc.,
Also has duel screen support with different windows on different TVs. It's also integrated to Logitech Tap device.
