Hi,
GT1 connected to a TV using HDMI.  Cannot cast from my Sony Z3 Compact to the GT1 (GT1 running included "Miracast" app).  I have tried SD/HD settings - still not working.   Connection begins but casting never succeeds.  It works for a Samsung S4 Mini. Can this be fixed?

Also I cannot cast from the GT1 to a Miracast enabled TV.  The "Cast Screen" menu and "enable wireless display" checkbox is not available in settings.  Please can this be fixed as I would like to connect the GT1 to the TV wirelessly.

Cheers.

I've now tested this with a Sony Z5 running Android Marshmallow and this also fails when casting to the GT1 box.  Box is advertised as supporting Miracast but it doesn't work.

Could BeeLink look into this?  Is there an updated version of the Miracast App?

Cheers.

Miracast uses Wi-Fi direct.

My Samsung S4 Mini also works.  But Sony Xperia Z3 and Z5 are not unknown phones and both fail mid-connection.  All these devices work on a TV with built in Miracast, and the Netgear PTV3000 Miracast receiver.  This seems to be a problem with the GT1.

Will Beelink fix this?

Sony Xperia Z3 and Z5 also work with Amazon firestick miracast feature.  This is a problem with GT1.

Casting from Sony phone to GT1 Miracast app is still broken in firmware 106.  Also, still no "cast" menu under display settings on GT1 to allow casting to a  Miracast display.

I, as well cannot cast from my Nexus 5 to the GT1. I'm on the 106 MO firmware.
I have another Android TV box, from BQeel, and I have no problem casting on that one.
