>>> VIDEO & TV CAST vs. MIRACAST
Video & TV Cast has some big advantages compared to Miracast screen mirroring:
MULTI-TASKING: You can close the app while casting! Your phone can even be shut down, pr you can do a phone call, text a message or prepare the next video in the browser while casting.
FULL HD: Casting in Full HD is possible even on Android devices with low screen resolution. Miracast is restricted to the resolution of your Android device.
LESS WIFI-USAGE: Because with Video & TV Cast only the LG TV loads the video during casting. When using Miracast all videos are routed through your phone.
DEVICE SUPPORT: Video & TV Cast works on all Android devices. Miracast does not.
