  1. I regret buying a chromecast. It's almost as bad as an apple product, in that you can't stream your own content (easily).

    LocalCast – Plays music, but often drops out after 1 track. Flakey but the best i've found.
    AllCast – Does music but only plays one song! won't play a full album, and splits various artists albums into multiple albums
    Castaway – Doesn't seem to do music at all

  2. using allcast and casting it on your phone, when you play media files will it force you to use a certain video player? i use es file explorer and it just forces me to use es chrome cast player, but it doesnt include the subtitles when i play a movie, im planning on buying a chromecast soon so im seeing my options first :/

  3. Great timing on this video for me, I received my Chromebase in the mail 2 days ago and noticed right away I couldn't display my images or phone video. I was bummed, that would be my main use. Anyway, I just bought Castaway, at $1.99 it's a must have for me. Thanks for the great info!
