How to use?
1. Use the address bar to open the website that contains the media you want to play.
2. Start playing the video or audio on the website.
3. Smart Cast Browser automatically detects the source addresses of the media being played and shows a notification at the bottom right of the screen.
4. Select the source you want and cast it to your Chromecast™, DLNA / UPnP, Fire TV or Roku device.
Supported media formats

Important notes
