TV Cast Pro for Roku
How do I cast videos from my iPhone's Photos app using TV Cast Pro for Roku?
Open the TV Cast Pro app and tap the 'Photos' or 'Media' icon to access your device's gallery. Select the video you want to cast, and it should appear on your Roku TV—though some users report occasional loading issues with this feature.
Can I use the built-in browser to cast videos from any website?
Yes, the built-in browser lets you navigate to most websites and cast video content directly to your Roku. However, some streaming sites may show a 'format not supported' error, and the browser is slower than Safari, taking about 10 seconds to load pages.
Why does my TV Cast Pro app suddenly lose connection to my Roku during playback?
This is a known issue where the app can disconnect mid-video, causing the TV screen to go black. To fix it, close and restart the app, then reconnect to your Roku—ensuring both devices are on the same stable Wi-Fi network can help prevent this.
What should I do if TV Cast Pro freezes when scanning my photo or music library?
If the app freezes while loading a large library, try reducing the number of files in the folder you're accessing or restarting the app. This lag is common with big collections, so keeping your media organized can improve performance.
How does TV Cast Pro for Roku compare to free casting apps like AirScreen or Roku's own screen mirroring?
TV Cast Pro offers an ad-free experience and a private browsing mode, unlike many free apps that are ad-supported. However, free alternatives may be more reliable for basic casting, while TV Cast Pro's built-in browser is slower and can have connection drops, making it a trade-off for the extra features.
