    The Chromecast HDMI Streaming Media device was given as a holiday gift to someone who watches most of television shows on the computer. Now, with the Chromecast HDMI Streaming Media device, television shows can actually be watched on the bigger screen, with the use of the sound system. Bliss on cold New England evenings!

    I had my doubts because I have an older TV and a little known ChromeBox (not a ChromeBook). But it works. Hooray.

    Makes my regular 45 inch Samsung TV into a smart TV in a flash. The cool part is just using my iPhone as a remote.

    Would be perfect if it was able to stream any local content without Chrome extension; limited apps supporting Chromecast at launch. If you have older TV with DVI, get a device that separates video from audio, then a Hdmi to DVI cable to make your old, dumb TV useful again.

    You can stream videos,l from different apps like netflix, youtube, vemo..... but can't stream your own videos. Using Google Chrome browser on your computer can let you stream websites to your tv. Setup is super easy and to use it even easier. Works with ios and android.
