How do I watch via Chromecast on my desktop?

If you have a Chromecast device, you can use that in conjunction with the Google Chrome desktop browser to watch content on your TV.

Note: At this time, we do not support Chromecast devices that some TVs have built-in. While it may work, our player is not developed to support this and we cannot troubleshoot any issues that may arise. Only external Chromecast devices are officially supported. While there is no comprehensive list of supported and unsupported models, if you provide the model number to our Support team, we are happy to check for you.

Additionally, it is not possible to Chromecast via a mobile web browser (including Chrome) on iOS.

From your desktop Chrome browser (computer)

There are two ways to Chromecast a video to your TV screen: cast the entire browser window or cast from the video player. Note that both methods require your computer and your Chromecast device to be connected to the same local network.

Cast the browser tab

By casting your browser tab, you would also be able to control the player via the browser just as you would if you were watching on your computer. When selecting this method, only the selected tab will cast; while you can navigate to other tabs on your computer, these will not be cast to the TV.

Additionally, if you navigate away from the player within the selected tab (i.e. load a different website), the video will no longer cast to your TV.

1. On the video page, open the Chrome menu in the upper right corner of the window (or open the View menu at the top) and select Cast.
   
2. Select your Chromecast source and your Chromecast destination. Chromecast will then be connected and the video will display on your TV screen.
   
3. To pause, fast-forward, or rewind, use the player controls within the browser tab.
4. To disconnect from Chromecast, click the blue Stop icon next to your casting destination in the menu.

Cast the player

When casting via this method, you can navigate away from the tab with the video playing and the video will continue to play on the TV screen. However, doing so would disconnect the player controls from the video on the screen and you would lose the ability to pause or scrub via the player options on the screen. To regain these controls, you would need to reset the Chromecast connection (i.e. stop casting and start again).
