How long has it been? I agree with Possessed, they’ve really improved their pizza the last few years.

Can’t quite recall. 2012? 2013?

Either way, it was in Canada, so my case may not apply.

But seriously, how bout instead of using your phone you get a Roku? The original first Roku sells at Wal-Mart for around 40 bucks. It only goes as high as 720p but it still looks quite good and is pretty easy on the WiFi. If you must have 1080p there’s the Roku 2 or 3 but they cost a bit more.

Well, I have my BD player for the main streaming apps: Vudu, Amazon, Netflix, and Hulu. I basically got the stick to use the others like the premium channel streaming apps. As I found out, there was a reason that they were so cheap. Either way, Cinemax don’t have a Roku app, and creating one is obviously not something which HBO has much interest in. FUNimation apparently do have a Roku channel though. Either way, I’m trying my best not to spend money, especially since I’m currently looking into getting something off of my DVR, a quest I have been on for many years now and will cost money one way or another. On that subject, is there any way around iTunes DRM infestation to put some of their content onto a DVD to watch?

NVidia Shield. Don’t forget to root it and install real android.

What does this mean??

Not sure if this’ll help MikeO - but Videostream works well for my Chromecast needs…

It’s available for iphone & ipad, android or for Windows PC - free and easy to use.

You can either cast a screen (through a Google Chrome browser tab) - or choose a video from your library - to play to your tv.

Hope it works well for you
