| 1426484 | 2016-09-26 01:57:00 | Hi there, I have a problem casting from my PC to my TV. I have a Panasonic Viera ET60 series TV and for some reason I cannot read file names in the Media player nor can I cast from the Pc. The error message on the pc is !Media is not available. When I try and play from the TV media player it can find the Folder names but not the file names. Any help would be appreciated. I am using a Huawai HG659b modem and also a Netgear AC1200 wifi range extender. the Wifi is built in to the tv. Johnmcc |

| 1426486 | 2016-09-26 03:50:00 | I am not trying to use screen mirroring, by right clicking on the file you can cast to a device. Since upgrading to fibre and a different modem I am getting the message media not available. |

| 1426487 | 2016-09-29 03:54:00 | Bumping this one to the top .... having similar problems and wouldn't mind a bit of advice if anyone can help. I've got a Chromecast v2 that works brilliantly with Netflix, On Demand channels etc. in Chrome browser. The problem is, when I come to watch movies (legal ... mainly home movies that were on VHS) that I have on an external hard drive. I've tried converting them to .avi .MP4 and a lot of other formats ... nothing works. VLC is working on a version that shows a lot of promise, but it's not reliable yet. There are another couple that are more expensive than a house in Queenstown and one of those looked a bit dodgy. If anyone knows of a good reliable program or a work around, I'd be ever so greatful for your assistance ! |
