Cricketics Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Thanks for the detailed response Pa'aji... I intend to use iPad to stream bolly movies. If you search 'Eros now' in App Store' date=' you'll find it. I think Chromecast is the best option for me then as I just intend to mirror screen.[/quote'] Where you watch bollywood movies from on your ipad? You bought erosnow or is there any other good site. I would love to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texan Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 thanks' date=' will check it out if it also works on the browser as I don't have roku[/quote'] You can get one of those free Roku stick packages. I think you have to prepay 3 months of service or something like that. Check out their site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cricketics Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Okay so who all are using roku? My friend has just come up with his own channel which has lot of Indian channels. You can test it out. I will send you the instructions of adding it to your apps as it is private channel. I reunited with him online two days ago after about 8 years. We met online 10 years ago looking for cricket streams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cricketics Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Sorry to say but Roku's remote sucks. It keeps losing signal and readingnover internet it might seem pretty common regardless of how good your internet is. I downloaded roku's app on phone and that works great for remote and i rather use that all the time since it has keyboard too to type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have both - a Roku 3 and a Chromecast and the Chromecast is just gathering dust right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My remote has never given any problems. Since you're in your warranty period, you might want to get a replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texan Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 There are rumours of an updated Chromecast being unvieled at the Google I/O sessions. In the meantime, Lenovo has launched its own casting device to compete with Chromecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
