I just got "aPower-something" working, but it seems to be only video, not audio.

Like video and audio you took? Or what? For those, I just use the photos app on my Pixel, I think.

No, a video in a web browser on your phone that you ant to put on the TV.

Project your Pixel phone's screen
If you have a Chromecast, Nexus Player, or other device that can cast, you can show your Pixel phone's screen and audio on a TV. To use Chromecast with your Pixel phone, first check the requirements for Chromecast devices.

Important: Some of these steps work only on Android 8.0 and up. Learn how to check your Android version.
Cast your screen
Open your phone's Settings app.
Tap Connected devices And then Connection preferences And then Cast.
On the list, tap the device where you want to show your screen.
Tip: You can add Cast to Quick Settings. Learn about Quick Settings.

Unless the video has a dedicated cast button, like youtube or such

Fuckers just sent me a brand new Chromecast "Free" for being a subscriber. I'm only a little bitter since I bought it when it came out. But I was pondering a 2nd for the other TV, so it's a win.

This thing needs more storage. Only 4GB is usable. So I can fit like 5 apps.

I still think Roku is the easiest to navigate and use. Chromecast is second. Fire just sucks.

Everything we have is Google, so I prefer to stay in the environment. I can talk to it, cast to it, etc.
