Casting from IFollow

[king canary 8,750]

First time using IFollow today and want to cast it to my TV. Can I cast to an Xbox or do I need chromecast or similar?

Just dug my chromecast out and no option to cast as far as I can see?

I don’t think you can. I gave up trying and in the end HDMI cabled my laptop to the TV which work’s fine.

Won't work through PS either. Now watching via chromebook

No hdmi unfortunately on my Chromebook!

Proprietary apps rarely allow casting. Laptop to TV via HDMI is best bet.

I've been able to cast the whole screen. Weird they don't allow to work with chrome cast tbh.

KC, what are you using to cast. I didn't think Ifollow allowed casting. 

HDMI from laptop works a treat.

All you have to do is use chrome browser in your phone or pc or whatever. 

Then you cast it to the TV set to the input your chromecast is in. 

I seriously can't understand why people on here persistently cannot work out something so basic.

Just Google "cast from chrome to TV" 

I open ifollow in desktop browser, then click the three dot menu and "cast". 

That's it! Job done! My 10 year old does it!

Hope your 10 year old doesn't grow up to be like you

I genuinely had suspicions that you were Bill under another name as he disappeared the same day you graced us with your presence but even he isn’t as consistently unpleasant as you.

After reading all the mumbo jumbo on this thread I'm really glad the match works first time on an iPad 🙂

We just use the Amazon browser on FireTV. Was a bit of a pain first time around putting in the credentials using the remote, but works really well.
