Buffering using chromecast

Tablo performs fine on my PC, however when I cast to chromecast on my tv I encounter frequent buffering. Will using a Roku resolve this given the Tablo app is part of a Roku?
Is it better to purchase a new Roku with the latest technology?

  1. What is the make and model of your router?
  2. What recording quality do you have the Tablo set to?

If you can find a Nexus Player for $25 in Target in your area, it is a ridiculous steal for what is the best Table experiance I’ve seen between Chromecast 1st gen, 2nd gen, and Android TV.

Should be on clearance for $24.98.

Maybe at some point the programmers will support Chromecast properly: the whole idea is to have the device just pull the stream from the source. That’s why the current implementation is so poor.

I bought 4 of them yesterday with this sale for early Christmas presents :slight_smile: Awesome little devices especially for the price. All of East Phoenix is out of stock but hopefully other cities have some left.

a brand new linksys max stream AV 2600 router and I set the recording quality is 720HD Roku/chromecast

Are you using a 1st gen chromecast?

Is your Tablo connected via WiFi by chance? This could cause problems with “double WiFi”.
