Hello fellow forumites.
Does any kind sole here have a chromecast usb stick that they would be prepared to lend me just for a few hours to run some tests? I want to see if I can make Chromecast send the signal from my PC to a TV set having both connected to a hotspot created by my mobile phone (theoretically using the phone as a router). There are many forums where people discuss failed attempts of using a phone to Chromecast without using home wifi - but this is a slightly different scenario to which I can't find a definitive answer.
Basically, my photo booth computer will be connected via WIFI to my mobile phones wifi hotspot, as would be the chromecast device. I want to be able to stream the photos being taken to a TV sited not to far away. The booth software has chromecast functionality built in, but obviously at most venue's I would have no access to wifi, other than a hotspot created by a mobile phone or mifi unit.
If anyone has a definitive answer, or would be willing to lend me a chromecast dongle for a few hours to try this out I would be massively appreciative.
TIA
Wayne
