X2Just started my kayo trial today. Looks good in an external monitor connected to my laptop and also mirroring my phone with the TV. No complaints so far.
Just watching on a tablet but it's roughly a million times better than the AFL ap

I'm not 100% sure, but from what I've read is that it should work but won't be able to do 1080p, only 720p.Will Kayo literally not stream on a first-gen Chromecast, or does it just not support particular features?
Chromecast Gen 2 will work 720p only. Gen 1 wont work at allI'm not 100% sure, but from what I've read is that it should work but won't be able to do 1080p, only 720p.
would depend on your internet speedIs it possible to receive High Def streaming without NBN connection speeds?

Good tip, certainly making my laptop into TV easier to control (especially since it's an old laptop not used for anything else).For the moment if you are using a laptop hooked up to the TV via HDMI and want to control it, earlier on in this thread someone pointed me in the direction of a phone app which you can use as a mouse to control your computer/laptop.
There's a few different apps out there, I'm using Remote Mouse on an Android phone. Just have to download the app on your phone, the app on your laptop and then make sure they are connected to the same wifi network. Works awesome and saves getting up every time you want to pause it or whatever.
Having another crack with Kayo now the android tv app is available & it's JLT time, I agree it has motion issues with some stuff and doesn't always seem HD to me.. anything is better than potato streaming or signing up with fuxtel though.I have a 2018 Sony Bravia tv, downloaded the Kayo app from the play store last night. Watched a heap of tennis this afternoon - couldn't fault the stream on 65" display. Thought the JLT match last night suffered a bit of motion blur which I didn't get watching tennis.
Live streaming from my experience is flawlessSo I signed up this morning just to see how it works.
The phone app is ok, although it isn't the most perfect interface, it's pretty good. Maybe too much information at once.
Secondly, I attempted to watch the replay of wce and Geelong. Good quality image, etc but I suspect that when watching a live game is when any picture quality and buffering would occur.
If you have a Google home hub (the one with a screen) you can cast to that in the same way you would a Chromecast. Neat, if not necessarily something I'd do (except say to watch footy while cooking)
And lastly, as the tv isn't smart enough and my Chromecast is the wrong generation, I grabbed my daughter's discarded school Chromebook and HDMI straight into the tv.
Hunky Dory.
Now to see if the live streaming is any different this afternoon.
We are on a 25 NBN plan but it's at usually between 12-18 so should be goodLive streaming from my experience is flawless
I have a very nice internet connection speed though, other have complained when they have an average connection. I reckon if you have a decent connection, you will be impressed.
Reckon you should be fine, regardless of what other devices are using your bandwidth. Kayo has the ability to select the quality: auto, SD or HD. In the setting it says HD need 6mbps. It also says the stream is 720p which is a little annoying as we expect 1080p when talking HD, however, if you didn't know this then you wouldn't notice. The stream is goodWe are on a 25 NBN plan but it's at usually between 12-18 so should be good
Unless my son is playing GTA Online or fortnight at the same time as my wife and daughter stream Netflix I guess.
