Setting up Chromecast
If you’ve never used your Chromecast device before, you’ll need to set it up according to the manufacturer’s instructions >
Casting from the BT TV App
- Make sure your TV is tuned into the correct HDMI channel that your Chromecast device is connected to
- Check that your Chromecast device, and the device you’re casting from, are connected to the same Wi-fi network
- You’ll see the Chromecsat icon in the right-hand corner of your BT TV App - tap on this
- You’ll see a list of Chromecast devices that are being detected on your Wi-fi network – select the one you want to connect to
- When your device is connected, the Chromecast icon will turn white
- You can start casting either before you start watching, or whilst you’re watching, a programme
When you’re casting, you’ll see a 'mini-controller' at the bottom of your casting device that will allow you to fast-forward, rewind and control volume where needed.
