AFAIK the Chromecast function is always ON. You just need to cast from your phone and choose "unifi tv" then the phone is mirroring on the TV.
Hope this will help.

I've test it, plus box does support Chromecast. In miui 11,Xiaomi uses Miracast for screen mirroring, which is another technology. If you're casting from YouTube or other apps that supports Chromecast (mostly Google apps and other big names), It'll show up. In my case, I'm using Redmi Note 7. Only casting from apps is available, not screen mirroring.

This is the popup when casting from the homescreen

You can install astro go using adb but it won't show in app drawer.. you can find it in setting open it from there.. but it's not remote friendly.. you have to use mouse or air mouse..

for Xiaomi phone, install Google Home in your phone, then you can cast your screen, videos, pics from your phone
if i'm not mistaken, only Facebook vidoes & YouTube can cast directly

From my own measurements:

- Old STB = constant 8.8 Mbps
- New PlayTV app on phone = average 5 Mbps

Modded PlayTV ATV app, need to install on my non-ATV box, possible?

5 Mbps is OK & standard for many legal streaming services, but as we're spoiled with silver/white STB, it's natural we demand the black STB should be at least as good.

In my case, I'll wait until 4K channels are actually available on Unifi TV. 25 Mbps 4K streams a far-fetched dream?

Actually can't just compare average bitrate directly with other streaming services like this. This is because Unifi TV uses on-the-fly encoding with a constant bitrate. Other streaming services like YouTube are on-demand video services. They can take time to do 2-pass variable bitrate encoding with a high quality encoder. So those services can maintain OK quality with average 4Mbps+ due to the higher quality encoding and because the variable bitrate can actually peak at 6Mbps+ for certain high-motion parts and drop lower than 2Mbps for simple parts.

That's correct. Of course can't do direct comparison, just based on own eyes. You need a good HDMI capture card running off the old STB for (almost) direct comparison.

Before any confusion:

I installed the original Android TV Unifi TV app on the Sony Bravia Android TV KD-49X8300C; I can run but it shows a warning "Not available in this device" instead of the "migrated" one... I didn't install it on white Unifi STB since it is not an Android TV device but just an Android box.

The original Android TV Unifi TV v1.1.6 app from Google Play Store accessed from any Android TV device should able to install it but any Android TV devices except the new black Unifi Plus STB will not able to run it without any warning.

The modded Android TV Unifi TV v1.1.6 version (which is not the PlayTV for Android devices like phones/tablets) works on Sony Bravia Android TV. It should work on new black Unifi Plus STB as well. I didn't install it (modded) on the white Unifi STB since it is not an Android TV.

Well for mine, besides the unifi plus box, i used the official android tv version of unifi play tv 1.1.6 apk on 2 other devices namely minix & x96max. Both worked without any glitch.

if you white box already updated to new interface that mean your account have been migrated.

Uninstall the Unifi TV app and re-install again to change the id login.
