Hi all,
I just received my Chromecast and don't see how I can stream personal videos using the device. I have tried this on the following devices:
Asus Transformer Pad Infinity - Rooted and running CyanogenMod Version 10.1.2-tf700t
Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (Verizon) - Rooted and running CyanogenMod Version 10.1-20130723-NIGHTLY-i605
I have added personal videos to the device by hooking them up to my PC via USB, and dragging and dropping video files into the "Movies" folder in the root of storage. I've done some research and it sounds like when I open Google Play Movies and TV and access the overflow menu, I should see an option for personal videos. Instead, I only see the following options on both devices:
Refresh
Settings

Am I missing something or has the functionality to view personal videos in Google Play Movies and TV been removed? I am able to view my personal videos using other Android video player applications. I know that prior to rooting the Transformer Pad Infinity I was able to access personal videos in Google Play Movies too. That may have been a prior version of the Google Play software though. I just rooted and installed CyanogenMod within the last couple of weeks.
If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. I'd appreciate any help. Streaming personal videos is the only reason I purchased Chromecast in the first place.
Thank you!
