google chrome - Chromecast functionality -
This is in relation to the functionality of Google Chromecast Consider a scenario where I'm playing a YouTube video in my Android mobile . I have an old TV on which I have attached the Chromatate dongle TV and my mobile phones are in the same WiFi network, which I think when I tap on the "Cast" icon in the YouTube app of my mobile, My chromette dongle (which is already registered) sends a request to the YouTube server to stream media. So, basically, it is not streaming directly from my mobile phone. From my phone, I am directing YouTube to send media to one of my other registered devices. It explains why video background continues to run video despite sending an iPhone app. My question is, if that's the case, why do I need Chromecast and my mobile phone to be in the same Wi-Fi network? I can send a "cast" request from my office network and YouTube should start connecting to the home network on my TV network. What am I missing here? Thanks for your help!
You are sending some meta information about the video you are viewing on Chromecast and Chromecast brings videos from Youtube. Has been playing and most of the home setups will not have any chance of connecting your chrome to YouTube and sending a file.
Therefore, to exchange these devices, they must be stored in the same WiFi network.
