Im just fukking with you breh, you were right as of right now a smart tv does all this, but that wont be true in the near future
im just on one cause its my birthday so if I come off abrasive, my bad
Anybody looking into this Chromecast device should look up a Raspberry Pi. that is no doubt where Google got this idea from. A Raspberry Pi cost about the same as this but is an actual computer you can install an OS on like Android or Linux.
yes my tv has net flix,youtube and will stream stuff via DLNA from my laptop (when ever they chose to see each other)but I cant mirror my desktop via wireless hdmi tho. I could buy a widi adapter for my tv (this laptop has widi built in) but chromecast seems to be a cheaper alternative.

Made a thread about rasberry pi but it didn't get any replieswinb83 said:
Yea expect for the lil detail that
1. You have to program to do every function that this already does out the box
2. It looks like this
3. You need to add few extra parts to get full functionality
Once you factor all that in you have a device that cost more and MIGHT work, if it was programmed correctly

Raspberry Pi is slow and buggy

why are my words big and bold like that
had my two chromecasts sitting on my porch when i got home last night. never got a shipping notice, never got my netflix codes either 
Just checked my google account and CC account. Charges and the order is still "pending", and they dont have a tracking number. Someone fukked up, maybe i got these for free.

Where did you order from?had my two chromecasts sitting on my porch when i got home last. never got a shipping notice, never got my netflix codes either
BB site has been saying my order is being processed for 2 days but I got the netflix code already via email
I ordered from Google play store, with 2 day shipping. Said it would ship out on the 27th. They arrived yesterday
If you got a Pi how come you ain't already up on all these features, bruhhhh? Connect that shyt up and you can send anything to your TV, plus use it stand-alone with all the artwork to your movies and music. The Pi will play 1080p files flawlessly.
If you don't know what you're doing then I can see the appeal of a Chromecast stick, but if you've already got the equipment at home I don't know wtf you're doing buying extra shyt, especially to the point where you rush out to be an early-adopter.
But whatever, do you breh.
