This means you can now cast content on your TV directly from your device! There are two applications covered in this video that let you stream your local content your TV. Allcast created by Clockworkmod and Castaway created by PrimeTimeCoder. Let’s put these two applications head to head!

Castaway not available to download
This explain nothing
Can we change language of a movie which include 2 or 3 language options
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
I have downloaded game of thrones episodes but my chrome cast won't play them
do you have to have Wi-Fi in order to stream from my phone to chromecast?
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 :/

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!ÂÂ
Great review it's been a while.
