Anyone know if the NFHS feed can be cast to a tv via Chromecast? Their website is a bit unclear on that.

 

It mentions that you can stream it on a tv OR Apple TV, but it does not mention what the options for streaming are outside of Apple TV. The reason I ask is because I don't own an Apple TV but do have a Chromecast tv as well as a fire TV.

For the football finals it worked like a charm with my Apple 4K TV.

 

They did have a help page and I assume if it isn't there you either can't or you need a super tech wizard.

Yeah the help page specifically mentions you can watch it on an apple tv or stream it to a tv. Which is where I am confused since it doesn't mention what methods work for streaming it to a tv.

 

In general I can cast pretty much anything from my phone to my tv so I would imagine I should be able to cast this as well. Just don't wanna subscribe (mainly for the Ashland game) to find out that I'm stuck watching it on a phone or tablet.

Don't know how the video feed works from NFHS, but I'm assuming it's a video stream embedded in a web page. If you use the "TV Cast" app, you can cast pretty much any video from any web page to your TV.

Thanks. I was actually just playing around with that and it appears to work. Also appears that I can just open it in the web browser on the tv then switch to full screen, so all is well.

 

I gave the app a try on some of their free content and you cannot cast to a tv through the app, which is kind of odd. But to give them credit the support page on their Android app is much more clear on the subject than their webpage.
