Any help on Net flix please
On my old phone i was able to get the US version with the help of HOLA and then cast the screen to the TV. Unfortunately with the LG G3 when I cast the Netflix screen I can see all the navigation, ie the volume control, progress bar etc but no video.
If I cast local video it can be seen.
i ahve an unlocked LG G3 with Lolipop 5.0

I've experienced a weird problem with my Gpad (stock 4.4.2) trying to use Miracast ( Push2tv: ptv3000) with Netflix, first odd thing : when I tried to connect my gpad to my tv it's showing "HDCP authentication failed"on the tv,but it's connected anyway and showing the mirror of the gpad on tv:everything working as it should:audio and video including Youtube.Now when I tried Netflix:everything were ok until playing the movie:I got sound,on video : I got everything ,even the navigation bar,caption but not the video of the movie (the video is perfect on the Gpad).I have a Lg g pro phone running 4.1.2 and everything is perfect.
Weird problem to me: everything else works except video on Netflix with the LG Gpad 4.4.2
The problem is no video on the tv with Netflix, video is perfect on the Gpad
Anybody else experienced the same problem?anybody have a fix for that?
Any input is greatly appreciated
Does anybody have trouble screen mirroring or casting with their OP3? I can't seem to connect to my TV, either through casting or wifi direct. I'm using FreedomOS and BlueSpark kernel.
No problem for me...I am casting to a Roku
Using 3.2.7 and EK Kernel. Haven't tried it directly to any if my Samsung TVs.
No issues with my op3. Casted to Samsung TV just fine. However I wish if I could keep my phone screen off while casting still goes on. Does anyone know how?

No issues with OP3 on 3.2.7 while casting directly to Sony TV.
You can try BubbleUPnP or Tubio, both from Play Store. With these, you can stream videos, photos etc with your screen off.
For those friends who are facing issues with google chromecast screen cast feature, check the note part of the review to get help.

I saw there was a thread back in November about chromecast issues, but no responses, so I thought I'd start a new thread.
I don't have any issues casting issues with streaming video apps like Fox Sports Go or a Watch ESPN. No issues when casting "local" videos from my SD card within VLC Player (using the cast button in the player app) . No problem with VLC Player with the HDMI connection - but it acts like it is casting (video only shows on the TV). Mirroring the screen looks fine with HDMI. Swiping screens is smooth. I can see the top and bottom of the screen. Audio apps like Pulsar Music Player and Pandora also cast fine.
Here's where it gets weird.
1) When I cast to the TV from Google Home, I get a message that my device is not optimized for casting. Then the mirror mode cuts off the top & bottom of the screen, and the casting is choppy. Swiping from one screen to another is laggy. When I cast with SmartView through settings, no message, but still cut off at the top and bottom, and choppy / laggy.
2) When casting local videos in mirror mode, both with chromecast and hdmi, MxPlayer is _terrible_ distorted and choppy. MxPlayer is fine when not casting.
3) When casting with Google Home or SmartView, VLC Player is choppy, but nowhere near as bad as MX Player
Because both the players work when not casting, it doesn't seem to be a problem with video codecs (although I have no idea which codecs I should use for MX Player - I haven't had any playback issues like I did on the S2).
Anyone know why the issues with chromecast? There were no issues casting with my Tab S2....
Thanks,
Joe
Where is the cast button in VLC? I didn't think it could do that, I just looked again and still don't see it. App is up to date.

Should be on top, right hand side.
I'm using the beta version, 3.0.94 from Jan. 15th. The beta, at least, has supported direct casting from the app for many months.
First enable casting in settings, in the extra settings section - casting is between audio and advanced. Then you'll see a cast icon at the top right of the screen.
Also after a video starts, press the screen to bring up the video controls while the video plays. Again, there will be a cast icon on the top right of the video screen.
This feature may be limited to the beta.

I have the beta as well latest version I see casting in settings and enabled it but no button on top right.

So I'm new to xda, but I tried attaching three screen shots of vlc, with the cast icon showing in the corner of the first two and the third where it asks which device to cast to. I'm not sure how or if I can embed them in line, but they are hopefully attached. I don't know if it helps you or not. (yes, Browns Hard Knocks... I grew up in Cleveland, a cross I have to bear)
Back on topic,
Is anyone else having issues with mirroring?
Good luck,
Joe
So I've used this more. Smart Cast and Google Home continue to be crappy for mirroring.
SmartCast is choppy, really bad contrast and distorted.
Google Home tells me "your device is not optimized for casting", the contrast and distortion are not so bad, but video plays choppy. Then after 5 minutes it drops connection. Every time.
While it is true that mirror casting is about the worst way to put content onto the TV, there are some apps that just don't support casting. This is a disappointment. You'd think a tab as expensive as this would be best in class.
Hi all,
I have a Nvidia shield TV with built in chromecast which works perfectly.
I could always cast directly with YouTube or whatever or use googles home app for mirroring video and audio when I wanted something that does not have build in cast option.
This has always worked with my opo1, opo3t, opo5 and my wife's Samsung s10.
Now with my rm5g I can cast when there is a cast option in the app flawlessly.
But the issue I have is when I try to cast/mirror with Google home.
Some how when I start mirroring everything works BUT sound keeps also coming from my mobile as well. If I lower volume or silence on mobile, it silences it on my shield as well.
The sound should be handled on my shield only and not on both devices, since now I need to have 100% volume on phone and duplicated sound on TV..... That's not what I want and it never needed this.
Normally you only have the mirrored video/chrome/etc in screen but no audio on your phone.
Is there a setting I'm missing on my red magic 5g? Or is this a flaw in the phone/software?
Does it work with you guys? For example mirroring a video on Chrome with Google home mirror function.
(ps, I have already looked in the home app, my shield TV and my phone but I can't find a solution to have the audio only on my shield. / I have not touched any settings when I changed my mobile from one plus 5 to red magic 5g / it still works perfectly on my opo5 and my wife's Samsung)
Nobody has this issue or have tried if it worked?
Just to add on the above info, reboot, factory reset was not helping.
I noticed the same issue with my Red Magic 5G, but unfortunately I don't know how to fix it. I think this is something only Nubia can fix.
Cast tru my 2 google nests and Hub are fine. Weird bug.

So your Google nest works fine, you don't have "double" audio then?
Kinda weird.
During the last days I've tried casting with my chromecast receiver on my other TV, a TV in my office and at a friend's place. Same result btw.
So it's not in the hardware of chromecast or Nvidia shield. It has to be in the red magic.
No double audio on my 3 devices. ??
I do have doubles displayed in the device cast menu but it doesnt affect anything.
I would like to bump this again to see if anyone else have this problem and a possible fix?
In the mean time my red magic had a software update, Google home updated a few times, my Nvidia shield had a software update.
I kinda hoped that 1 of these would fix it but I am still left with double audio. Right now my only solution is to cast what I want with audio on the phone and put my phone in the kitchen with the door closed so I won't be bothered by the double audio.
It's not really convenient....
Could anyone assist me?
Ps, tried a full reset on my 5g,no luck either.
