Google: Breaking Laws and Killing Chromecasts
Google: Breaking Laws and Killing Chromecasts
A lot happened this week! First, Marques, Andrew, and David talk about NVIDIA scraping YouTube videos before jumping into a new iOS feature that lets you get rid of ads on websites. Then, it’s all about Google. David goes over the new Google TV and Nest thermostat before talking about the news that Google has been declared a monopoly by the…

How to check if it's a Friday?
– check the calendar ❌
– waveform just dropped a video ✅
Who doesn't have adblock on YouTube these days? I just helped my friends get adfree youtube.
I was raised watching multiple things
I did not. Guess 4.3 only jelly Bean
I'm so excited! I actually got that right. I should have typed it doggone it but it was my first Google love. It was that silly tablet
The Chrome remote is what i use to turn on my TV, the volume too
19:43 David, idk if you were being sarcastic but I feel like you guys would know about an app that ends with anced and starts with an R. It makes life so much easier.
To address the concerns about 2 remotes, the chromecast with Google TV and I believe the new Google TV streamer has IR in the remote, and you can have it set to directly control the volume of your soundbar. So you can have a set where the volume controls the soundbar, and the power controls the tv. No matter if your hdmi tv or cables support it
Don't sleep on Bing it's way better than Google at this point
Sound level is a bit low guys, full volume on my earphones.
37:00 you don't need EARC to control a device via another over HDMI, you just need CEC which has existed since HDMI 1.0 Wiring is mandatory in all connectors but the feature is optional. But most modern TVs should support it.
@Marques: You can plug Google TV Dongle in the soundbar and then soundbar to TV. Your soundbar generally is able to send Google TV Stream to the TV.
If you have an E~ARC soundbar with multiple HDMI inputs you can control everything with one remote. I do this with my JBL soundbar.
Trash Panda hat 👀
Just wait until these guys find out about sponsor block
nanometres of torque😂😂
16:53 I first saw it skipping an ad on your podcast
17:48 That is really interesting, although I don't think Marques fully understood why. YouTube don't get a cut from direct ads between creators and brands, so would prefer for integrated ads within YouTube, which features like this would promote. 18:16 Andrew got it.
30:32 Where my mind first went
1:28:50 What's David laughing so much about?
My family watches 4 Olympics events or football games at the same time on YouTube Tv
1.5 hrs and only 4 stories? Bro c’mon.
Start including occasional nonsense in the videos to confuse the AI. We humans can always be aware of it
Ebikes yes💯💯💯💯💯👍👀
I absolutely would use the multiview a lot for different sport streams. The NCAA app has a fantastic multi-view feature for when March madness is in full swing.
Samsung frame and Samsung sound bar with Chromecast with Google TV. I can use the Samsung remote for controlling the TV or Google TV and sound. Google TV remote can modify sound, turn on and off and interact with Google TV obviously.
42:00 calebcity reference?👀
38:16 if you connect an hdmi audio splitter like ezcoo EZ-SP22H2EARCO you can split the atmos sound from your chromecast or other hdmi source and connect 1 output to your sonos or other soundbar and the other 1 to the tv. It also does CEC to turn your tv on and off. It doesnt do CEC back to the soundbar so you need to program your remote with infrared volume management. Thats my setup and it works well 😁
I've been using brave for about 3 years now. I'm so used to no ads, if I use a device without Brave I get annoyed.
Next in the news Google Maps😂😂😂
Another great podcast episode keep it up WVFRM team😊😊❤
Can't wait for a skip button that forwards your 3 minute ads 😉
Also my Nest thermostat always reads the temperature in the room 1-1.5 degreec Celcius warmer than it actually is. I guess that's a good way to help clients save energy, by making them think there house is actually warmer than it actually is (during the winter).
38:00 I have the Chromecast as well and I only use that one remote (since I only watch streams). The Chromecast remote can turn my TV on and off, also immediately turns on/off my soundbar (and obviously controls Android TV).
Only thing it can't do for me is select different sources to say put on a different HDMI for my Xbox. So, for that I still need my TV remote.
I have a conspiracy theory for y’all
Apple made a thin iPad to experiment for a folding iPhone mark my words
