Casting from 成人快手 iPlayer

When you cast from 成人快手 iPlayer, you're sending an instruction from 成人快手 iPlayer over your WiFi network to the Chromecast device connected to your TV to fetch a particular programme directly from 成人快手 iPlayer.

You will not be streaming the programme through your听mobile, tablet or computer, so once you've cast your programme you can continue to use your device听for other uses. However:听

  • If you're using the Chrome听browser, don't close the听tab
  • If you're using the app, you will need to select the cast icon from within the app to either resume control or disconnect

How do I control playback?

Playback and volume controls are operated from the app or browser. If you've navigated away from the app, you'll need to select the cast icon to bring up the cast menu, then select "Control Cast."

Please note that Live Restart is not supported when casting live streams from the app,听so you will always watch from the live point. Autoplay听is not supported when casting an on-demand programme, so you'll need to select the next episode on the app/website.

Subtitles are supported on Chromecast but are currently only available in black and white.
