Video Sharing

[Golfdriver97]

The S5 will come out and obviously have some kind of video sharing. Do you guys think it will be compatible with Miracast? Or will it be more aligned with Chromecast?

My own personal opinion is of that since there is now a closer tie to Google, there may not be a Miracast option and the Chromecast will be the video sharing of choice.

Miracast is an open standard, so there's no reason to not include it. But, we are talking about Samsung who has been known to change default actions like taking screenshots.

Chromecast is a feature built in to apps, so I'm not sure they could stop it from being included.

I'm also hoping they still support MHL or get on board with Slimport.

True about Samsung walking to the beat of their own drum.
