Just holding down (for a second or 2) on the Home button will take you to the settings! That way you can assign your Netflix button to something else!

[@KonradSkowronski]

Exactly. Just wanted to say it.

[@Gale4ce1]

I love this. Just ordered my first Chromecast. Can’t wait to try all these tips.

[@streamandtechnow]

Hello Gale, you're going to love it!

[@photelegy]

😊 Wow, this sounds awesome. ❓ I have some little questions: 1. Can I connect my BT headphones to this Cromecast with Google TV? 1.1 If yes. Is it possible to connect 2 or more BT headphones to hear the audio through them at the same time? (Like on laptops, ...) 2. Is there an app to use Philips Hue-Sync like it's possible on the Android smartphone/tablet with e.g. EssentialHue? 3. Where can I see which Android apps are supported by it? Or are all Android apps (.apk) supported which I have on my smartphone? 4. How good can it be controlled by the Google Assistant from the Google Home? Can it start itself and the TV?

[@streamandtechnow]

Hello thanks for visiting. I'm not able to answer all your questions, but hopefully someone reading will chime in. 1-yes 2-not sure, I will check and circle back once I get home if it does have in playstore 3-it uses playstore but it doesn't have all the same apps from mobile store since some are not configured for Google/Android tv interface. You can install 3rd party apps but Some apps require mouse toggle but you would need to pair different remote with pause play button like firestick remote to activate mouse toggle. 4- i don't have Google home to try this

[@photelegy]

@@streamandtechnow Thabk you very much!

[@ericcatapano4713]

Thank you for the great video! I've noticed that many apps have ads which can't be "x"ed out(most ads) while using the Google tv remote. Is there any workarounds to this?

[@streamandtechnow]

Great question Eric, I'm working on video but you can use firestick remote or other bluetooth remote with play/Pause & add which will help you activate mouse toggle.

[@WCG72]

Or you can just long press the home button to get the settings. Also if you long press the KZbin TV button you can repurpose that to access youtube, KZbin music or KZbin TV as well.

Excellent 👍 great tips thanks for sharing Bill. Have a great week 👍

[@MrSuperFly86]

Great video! I also wanted to know is there any way you can get a Nest Doorbell notification on the Chromecast Google TV? Like it shows on the Nest Home Hub, ie you can see the stream of the Doorbell as soon as someone rings the doorbell.

[@streamandtechnow]

Hello thanks for visiting my friend and appreciate your comment! Great question I'm not positive on that don't have a nest so can't play around with it to test it out

[@valerianteritron4424]

I simply mapped the Netflix buttong to open the native Google Movie library, called 'Google Play Movies'. But it is also possible to open it via voice assistent saying: "Open Google Play Movies". I find this view most efficient and allows easy to browser through genres etc.

[@streamandtechnow]

Excellent great feedback 👍 thanks for visiting and sharing

[@Rommism]

Great tips. Relative to your first tip where you can hide all other scrolling menus except for Your Apps, can I just hide a few that I don't like to show up on my Hone screen? Is there a way to do that?

[@streamandtechnow]

Hello, thanks for visiting. Good question, I don't believe there is a way to hide only specific apps only. But I'll look into it and if I find a way I'll circle back

[@Rommism]

@@streamandtechnow thank you so much 😊 there's this section that shows up that's tabbed as "Apps from my other devices" which shows apps that I've already deleted. I wonder why that shows up. Why on earth would Google want to remind me of what I already discarded?

Hello and good day or good evening, I would like to know witch VLC and MX Player are you using? or what Media Player do you recommend for the New Chromecast with Google TV ??

[@streamandtechnow]

Hello, I like both mx pro & vlc on some apps I just use exo built-in player. You would use 32bit it might say 7a

[@steph2211]

That is great awesome! Question for you if you have the choice between Fire Stick or Google Chromecast what would be your choice? Thanks my friend for the great videos.

[@streamandtechnow]

I like both devices & if you're on budget the new lite firestick is 29.99 you can also pickup 4kfirestick on sale quite often for 30 dollars so if on budget grab that you're going to love both. But my choice is definitely the Google Chromecast. Thanks for your support and kind words my friend 👍🙏

[@BorussenRick]

Hey there, so how do you got a Profile Pic for your Account on this? Can’t figure it out for myself 😕

[@billsize]

Thanks for the awesome tips! Can you tell me a way to remote into this device from outside my network? I've tried teamviewer but it can't control the mouse

[@leec591]

The google recommendations is one of the only flaws I have with the new Chromecast, I love it besides that. It sucks to hear that google essentially punishes you for enabling apps only mode

[@eagleviewhd]

Is there any way to download the Directtv Streaming App on Chromecast with Google TV?

[@teddyballgame4823]

I am glad I came across your channel. I received my Google Chromecast after subscribing to youtube TV. I also do not use Netflix. So remapping my remote will be awesome. Look forward to new content.

Hi. Is there anyway of doing that on a 4 k fire stick. And getting read of the stuff that we may never use.

[@streamandtechnow]

On original firestick homescreen settings, they don't have apps only mode unfortunately... but you can change the launcher that will display your favorite apps.

[@ryanhudson4015]

dude you really are awesome, been following you for awhile, and i sure am glad i am! just need to find a way to use cinehub on here, that is by far my favorite app that you have recommened. thanks for eerything!

[@streamandtechnow]

Thanks so much Ryan, really appreciate your kind words my friend 👍 it works better on mobile device but because it has built in Chromecast it will allow you to cast seamlessly to new Chromecast. Developer is working on firestick & Android tv version as well.

Is Google Chromecast TV worth replacing the Firestick?

[@streamandtechnow]

Which firestick are you referring to if first or second edition definitely yes...you'll notice huge difference. But if you have newer 4k Firestick I don't think it's necessary. It's a great device though I love it. But 4k firestick and new firestick light for 29.99 is also outstanding value.

Are one of the hidden features a replacement of that hideous home screen?

[@helenbrucebuckingham2769]

Are they better than the boxes ?

[@streamandtechnow]

Yes, only downfall is storage but can easily add more. I very rarely endorse a product I definitely would say this is my favorite device considering the price point, Google has home run with this. Nvidia shield is only other product I feel so strongly about. This is so buttery smooth and love the interface now. Highly recommend this. I like it more then TiVo Stream 4k & 4k firestick.

[@dmo848]

@@streamandtechnow really better than TiVo? Hum u got me thinking now. Damn I jus tricked out the TiVo also. Well Christmas is coming n tivimate needs a friend

[@streamandtechnow]

If you already have TiVo Stream 4k I wouldn't spend the money.. the TiVo is excellent no need to upgrade that but if you're in the market for another device & it's between those two I would go for new Chromecast.
