So (finally) I have an Intel NUC running on my downstairs TV. With openelec/xmbc.
I now need to stream films from the NUC to my upstairs TV.
I could stream direct to my galaxy s4 and connect via hdmi but I fancy more of a wireless solution!
Would the google chromecast work in streaming from the xmbc box or would it require advanced setup to do so?
Alternatively there are dongles that are half the price of the google chromecast that stream from android phones or Ipad (I have an up as also)
My only issue is would streaming to my phone and then streaming THAT to a dongle actually work or would I experience lag in "double streaming"
Any advice on an easy and cheap solution to stream upstairs would be appreciated.!!
