Nice! How are you using a chromecast without internet? Mine screams at me to get a google account.
Chromecast w/ google TV, sorry, so like a fire stick but different branding. Once you're signed into apps on it it'll remember you cuz it's a full android device
How do you get past the first screen that asks for a google account?
I think they're saying they've already signed into a Google account, downloaded play store apps, and set everything up. Afterwards, they have disconnected the Chromecast from the internet and successfully continued to access their self hosted content.
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
