QUOTE(mydurian @ Oct 19 2018, 09:44 AM) What you need it for? If you have that useless unifi tv box, can find in facebook ppl that sell service to convert it. much easier. I don't have unifi. Planning to install TIME then get a TV Box to watch Netflix or Youtube. Currently got TV but no TV channel, use HDMI cable to watch movie on TV saja.

QUOTE(liuyin @ Oct 19 2018, 09:46 AM) I see. Then that's really necessary haha. How long is considered excessive? Did it just overheat and kaput? I can one shot watch half a day of Netflix leh Try 12 hours per day. As Chromecast is hidden behind the TV, it will be quite hot. Either strap a fan with heatsink or put somewhere in ventilation.

Example box support Chrome Cast include Mi Box and Nvidia shield 2017. This post has been edited by Andrewtst: Oct 22 2018, 08:28 AM

My chromecast flickers (sound and video) randomly. So far, I have tried - putting into other HDMI ports. - changing cables , power adapters. - factory reset. This works for a while but problem come back after 1-2 hours. I googled and found quite a lot of people having this issue in the forum. All without real proper resolution. Their support seem to blame it to compatibility between chromecast and TV. Anyone else have this issue here in Malaysia ?
