I have bit of a dilemma here, I got a Vizio P65 which comes with a Smartcast tablet, I can cast Netflix onto the TV no problem (so the visuals work) but I can't get it to recognise my stereo speakers it only recognises the TV speakers (mono). I've tried using the CEC option in the menu, it finds my
receiver (AVR-S720W) but doesn't do anything with that info. I have no trouble getting stereo sound from my 360 which is connected to the receiver (along with my ELAC B6's and C5). So how do I get streaming TV on my TV and get my stereo sound as well? The only other options I can think is
through the 360 but I'll need to get Wi-Fi or Ethernet or the other option, hook-up a Media Player to my receiver (which is another rabbit hole of finding the best Media player for my needs). After doing about 2 minutes of research these look like the best Media Players available, but I can't decide
which one:
-Google Chromecast Ultra (most compact, pretty and hidden)
-Roku Premiere+ (most streaming agnostic and has a remote which I like for some reason (probably because I've been having difficulty with tablets recently))
-Roku Ultra (more audio options, more money)
-Amazon Fire TV (can't get it in Canada so you can go feth yourself, although I'll probably end up using your store anyways for a good deal on a media player)
-Nvidia Shield (more gamer oriented, loads of options, comes with a remote and controller, but pricier)
