I’m looking for a wireless HDMI cable essentially, as that’s the only way I use my chromecast. So I don’t care about it running android or apps.

Anyone got ideas or suggestions?

    I don’t have an answer but I am piggybacking off your question:

    Is it possible to flash another OS on the last gen Chromecast? Considering what’s happening to the gen 2, I don’t see a very bright future for my Chromecast.

    I like the Roku. They do other things too, but the casting seems to work well.

      TubeCast is not a full Chromecast implementation nor will it ever be. It only supports the first revision of the Cast protocol and will only keep working while Google keeps backwards compatibility with the Cast V1 protocol in their youtube mobile applications (at least for service discovery).

      This disclaimer doesn’t sound too confident, but if it works for op, then it should be good in the meantime.
