Smartphone to Chromecast?


Recommended Posts

Hi all, I'm unexpectedly about to become a the owner of an 8" Skywatcher Dob thanks to FLO's Black Friday sale.  I know that depending on target height will be an issue fo ray 7 year old daughter who often observes with me.  With my current tabletop mount we often attach a smartphone for basic pics and to let her see images on the screen rather than viewing through the eyepiece which she finds tricky.   Anyone tried casting video from an android smartphone to a Chromecast device attached to a TV or some other way to live stream to a laptop etc?  I thought of posting in the EEVA forum but that's not really what we'd be doing as we wouldn't be stacking images or anything - just relaying the low quality images from the smartphone - so apologies if anyone thinks it would have been better posted there.

Any comments or suggestions very welcome.

Thanks
