I've messed with using my laptop to connect to the tv and play video from the laptop (files stored locally on the laptop). I've messed with chromecast, again streaming from my laptop (plex) to the chromecast. Streaming from the internet is never gonna happen unless it is 4am or something.
Not being happy involving my laptop, I'm trying a new approach. I'm working on figuring out the format my Samsung TV likes for files on a usb stick. Then at home I can pull TV shows off of my Tivo, encode them, and put them on a usb stick and I'm set for a trip with a bunch of shows (using kmttg for the tivo and encoding).
Right now the file format I use seems to lose the audio after 10 minutes or so.
