G+_Tom Wiswell Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Would like to stream Google Music from my phone (HTC Evo 4G LTE) to my Samsung Smart TV (PN51E6500). Was thinking of buying Chromcast but I don't see the Chromcast logo in my Google Music Ap (v5.4.1409N.1014766). I think I should have it but doesn't appear I do. Is there another way?

G+_Rob Phelps Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Google music got an update and the Chromecast icon got moved.. Maybe you're just not noticing where it's at? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Feiris Wheel (Pat) Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 I don't think the chromecast icon appears if there isn't one on the network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Tom Wiswell Posted February 22, 2014 Author Share Posted February 22, 2014 That would explain it. I can't find it anywhere. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Joe Phelps Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Tom Wiswell I'm listening to Play Music right now via Chromecast. Works great from the mobile app or desktop Chrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Julie Wills Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Pat L. is correct. You only see the ChromeCast button (in any app that supports it) if there is a live ChromeCast on your network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Skyler Visconti Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Actually, you should be able to install the app and stream to your smart TV... At least my Samsung smart TV shows up as a streamable device. Though I do have 2 chromecast devices on my network, the TV shows up as a third (no, Chromecast is not connected to my smart TV) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
