Hello I’ve been using a chromecast with Google tv on a portable monitor to have my cameras displayed, but it seems the chromecast is pretty under powered. I am wondering if anyone has had any luck with the 4k version of the chromecast or another cheap streaming device like the Walmart onn that loads the protect app better.

Currently one camera view works fine but using a four camera view is tough because you have to open and close the app over and over until every thing loads up, then if someone rings the doorbell and it goes to the doorbell view you start all over to get it back

    So just to update I got one of those $20 4k onn. stream things from Walmart and that loads the protect app so much faster, what sucks is I already bought the ethernet adapter for the chromecast but the 4k chromecast costs double the onn so I probably won’t be trying it to see if it works as well
