    Have had unit for ~1 year. Within the last week the Chromecast appears to be interfering with a Vizio sound bar. The solution is to unplug the Chromecast; turn on the TV and sound; then re-plug in the Chromecast. This has occurred 3x times inside the last month. Not sure what the cause is.

      Hi there, Geoff. We appreciate you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're sorry to hear that you've been having an issue when using your Vizio soundbar and Chromecast with Google TV.

      If you've set up Chromecast to control the volume settings on your soundbar, you might experience unexpected results because of a disparity between the Chromecast volume settings and the volume settings on your soundbar. For example, if you mute your TV with the remote that came with it and then try to change the volume with your voice, your TV might stay muted. You might want to try setting up the volume control settings again to fix the issue:
      - To start setup, at the top right of your TV screen, select your profile and then Settings .
      - Select Remotes & Accessories and then Set up remote buttons and then Volume control and then Chromecast Volume.

      Additionally, if the issue persists, you may also try resetting your Chromecast device. This process will erase all data and you may need to set it up again. Please visit this link to get a step-by-step guide on how to reset Chromecast: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/6254654

      If you still experience the same issues, you're more than welcome to reach out to our support team for further help here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp madebygoogle

    Great functionality and the interface is snappy. One hiccup though; the OS does not support attaching a flash drive that is formatted any way other than FAT32. (you can connect a USB-C hub and connect a flash drive or ethernet adapter as long as the power supply for the hub is over 35 ish watts) Hopefully an update will fix this as I would like to use this to play back up tv shows or movies.

    It’s a really great device. The concept of having all of the content from all of your services in one menu is great. But it does still need some of the kinks worked out. Most specifically the “Continue watching” tab only collects episodes from some apps and is a little inconsistent about when it updates. Otherwise I can’t recommend this device enough. I think it is the best deal in streaming devices.

    Porduct works really well no major complaints. My use case however is strictly to cast a browser tab to a TV. I found using the builtin cast in Windows 10 to be too unstable and i would have to reconnect often. I have not needed to do that with the chromecast so I am happy with it.

    It was so easy to set up. It was fully functional in 10 min out of the box, with minimal input. The only issue I had with it was the USB power cord requires to be plugged into the wall, but the cable is short. It's shorter than the last gen Chromecast cable.

    I am a YouTube TV subscriber and really like the seamless integration. I still prefer my Nvidia Shield on the main tv but this was a great replacement for the stock WebOS functionality on my bedroom tv. With Google TV (Android), I no longer have platform support issues for the apps that I want.

    Great way to access all of my streaming services. I have not had any issues with it. I do wish it came with a case though. I bought one off of Amazon. It’s slippery without a case. The remote could also be a little bit larger.

    The Chromecast with Google TV is an affordable way to get nearly every streaming service in one place. Google TV will learn what you like and recommend content, and having the power of Google Assistant at an arm's reach makes this an incredible streaming dongle.

    The best investment! This is perfect since my 10 year old samsung smart tv deleted many of my apps off of the tv. So eventually the tv with the google chromecast will go in the bedroom and we'll go to best buy to buy a new tv for the living room. They had great selection and prices for TV's.

    This is the best streaming products that I've ever purchased. I can't even remember the last time that I've used any of my other devices to stream. The only complaint that I have us the remote. The buttons can be easily pressed accidentally. Get one...you won't be disappointed.
