Use Google Chromecast Streaming Media Player to Stream While Traveling

Posted on October 9, 2018 Written by Bill Hartzer

We’re in the full Fall conference season. If you’re a speaker at an upcoming search conference, headed to the State of Search in Dallas, or maybe even PubCon Pro in Las Vegas, I’m sure your bag is full of plenty of tech gear. One item, though, that I just cannot forget is my Google Chromecast streaming media player.

Google Chromecast Streaming Media Player

When you’re in a hotel room, for example, and winding down for the night, working on a presentation, or getting ready for the day, you can stream Netflix or other app content over to the TV in the hotel room. Google Chromecast Streaming Media Player plugs into the hotel room TV’s HDMI port.

  • All together now
    Watch movies, shows, live TV, YouTube, and photos streaming on your TV from all your family’s devices.¹
  • Stream from your phone to TV
    Plug Chromecast into the HDMI port on your TV and to power and stream your favorite entertainment right from your phone with just a tap. Watch shows, listen to playlists, and more. And while streaming, you can still use your phone as you normally do.
  • Works with the streaming apps you know and love
    Enjoy TV shows, movies, videos, songs, games, sports and more from over 2000 apps like Netflix, YouTube, YouTube TV, and HBO NOW. Find more at g.co/chromecast/¹
  • Start streaming with just your voice
    Just say what you want to watch from compatible apps and control your TV hands-free, with Chromecast and Google Home working seamlessly together.²
  • “Ok Google, play Stranger Things from Netflix on my living room TV.” ¹

  • Upgrade your TV for less
    Expand your home entertainment without buying a new TV. It’s so affordable you can get one for every TV in the house.
  • High-speed wireless connectivity
    Built-in 802.11ac Wi-Fi connects to the Internet through your wireless home network (wireless router required and sold separately).
  • Compatible with your existing HDTV
    Easily connects to high-definition televisions with HDMI connectivity.

Of course web-based services and content require high-speed Internet service. Some services may require a subscription, such as NetFlix. But even so, if you are on the road traveling or if you are at home, ditch cable and just use the Google Chromecast streaming media player to watch on your TV.

See it. Stream it.

Chromecast is designed to make the most of the apps and entertainment already on your phone. Shows, movies, live TV, YouTube, photos and more. It’s all just a tap away from all of your family’s devices.

Where to Buy It

Certainly you can get Google Chromecast at a lot of retailers, but honestly BestBuy is where I’ve gotten mine–they have it for about $35 if you go here to buy Google Chromecast.

¹ Subscriptions are required to view some content.
² Google Home, Chromecast, and compatible content required to cast to a TV using Google Home.
