If I want to watch content on my device I rename the playercorefactory.xml file in the 'userdata' directory and restart TVMC. If you want to view the content on your device only you will need to remove the playercorefactory.xml file from the above directory. If the playercorefactory.xml file exists in the directory above, everytime you attempt to stream content, the AllCast app will be opened. Select content to stream, choose AllCast when prompted to choose a player, select your chromecast and sit back and relax! ES File Explorer has a 'show hidden files' button which shows hidden files! You will need to turn this on in order to find the correct directory. Some file explorer apps will not show this directory by default. Note: When using a file explorer app the above directory includes the hidden directory '.xbmc'.

You will need to substitute the 'Allcast' key with the name of the casting app which you want to use. If you want to change it to a different app for casting, just edit the bottom part of the file. This file is already set up to cast using the AllCast app. You could us a different casting application such as LocalCastĭownload the playercorefactory.xml file which is part of this repository. There doesn't seem to be a built in way to cast from TVMC to a chromecast but there is a hack!ĭownload a casting app for your device.

#Casting from android mobile/tablet to chromecast TVMC comes with everything included and is basically plug and play! I initially downloaded Kodi but felt overwhelmed at the amount of reading/searching I had to do to find the best plugins to steam content. TVMC is basically Kodi with all the best plugins/addons pre-installed.

TVMC is a flavour of the XBMC Kodi build. I use TVMC for streaming online content on my android mobile and android tablet.
