Casting Ignite TV with Chromecast

[RogersMaude]

Getting started:

• Make sure your devices are Chromecast-enabled. See list of compatible devices, below.
• The device you’re casting onto should be tuned to the same input that your Chromecast is plugged into (e.g., HDMI 1, HDMI 2).
• The device you’re using to access Ignite TV – as well as the device you’re casting onto – must both be connected to the same WiFi network.
• If you’re using an Apple device you’ll need to allow the Ignite TV app to connect to your local WiFi network when prompted. You can also turn this setting on/off by tapping Settings > Ignite TV > Local Network.

How to cast

1. If you don’t have the Ignite TV app you can download it from the App Store or the Google Play Store:

• If casting from your phone, launch the Ignite TV app.
•  If casting from your computer or laptop with the Google Chrome web browser go to the Ignite TV website.
  • If you don’t have the Google Chrome web browser installed on your computer or laptop, download Chrome here.

2. Sign into Ignite TV with your MyRogers username and password.

3. At the top-right corner of the page (or on the screen playing your content), select the cast icon. 

4. Choose the device that you want to cast to from the WiFi-connected devices listed.

5. Select the content you want to watch (disregard this step if you started casting directly from your playing content).

That's it! Your selection will start casting on the device you chose in step 4.
