Quite tempted to get one of these, what other apps can you use with this? I know you can use iplayer and Netflix with these, Spotify would be quite useful!

Thanks muggo, just ordered one of these despite not needing one at all (Raspberry Pi running raspbmc and Xbox already hooked up).

Could I use it in hotels provided I can access the HDMI input?

Yep…. So long as the TV has a usb socket or you’ve got an adapter for the plug.

what other apps can you use with this?

Chromecast apps. You can also cast your screen from an android device, so that would work with Spotify I guess.

£18 from Tesco with £5 free blinkbox movie credit thingy

I got one of these for £23 and am enjoying Game of Thrones

Wuaki – Chromecast

I paid £30 for mine, and it’s brilliant.

Use it to cast videos (Youtube, Netflix, REd Bull TV) / music from my iphone, Chromebook. In fact the Chromebook will cast anything (holiday photos on Picasa etc).

Just been and bought one at local Currys store and they’re now £18 in store as well.

Mine arrived for collection today.

I’ve got mine through an AV receiver. Initially it would detect it at all. I unplugged all devices and then hooked it straight into one of the HDMI ports on my TV, set it up, then tried it again in my AV receiver and it works perfectly.

Just installed Popcorn Time on my mac. Wow, this is a total game changer!

You can directly cast from Popcorn Time on a Mac to Chromecast, but this work around is really simple and works perfectly….

Start your movie on Popcorn Time, pause it
