Chromecast with Google TV! - Unboxing, Setup and Full Demo!
487Curious about this new "Google TV" device? Is it just another Chromecast? Android TV? Both? Neither? Can it give venerable Shield TV a run for the money while costing a third (or less)?
I needed to know, too - so hopefully I'll answer your questions while getting the solutions to my own.
We'll talk about tricks on syncing the remote, how to set up with your phone (instead of the laborious process of doing it on the TV), talk about the depth and breadth of the apps it works with, see if it works with Plex and Kodi as well as seeing how well it works as a content aggregator.
