Teewe - A new device to play Online videos on TV

Yes, I am part of the team who has built this :)

That is good to know. Would very much appreciate if you could answer some of my questions here..

1. Can I start a YouTube video on phone / PC using your app and once it starts on the dongle, I can shut off my device / phone / PC and the video will continue on TV ?

2. Is all the content which is segregated as movies, Tv shows etc, all come from single source YouTube ?

3. Will any router work with your device ? I have a TP-Link WR340G which is a 802.11g 54 Mbps one.

4. Is your team working on entire screen mirroring ? It yes then can you provide any update on it ? I am sure it is the most demanded feature.

5. I see some reviews mention about certain YouTube videos not playing by saying that the browser is incompatible or some error, any plans on fixing it ?

Sorry for the questions but it would be great if you can answer mine and other such questions here.
 
Glad to answer them here

1. Yes, once you play a youtube video, you can switch off your phone, move away etc. As the stream will be taken care by the dongle for online videos

2. Yes, right now it is from youtube. We will be bringing more content from premium partners as well as other free channels like Vimeo etc

3. We are compatible with most of the routers. However, we have seen customers having issues with TP-Link routers in partcular, a G one is perhaps too old. If you really want to use streaming devices, you should at least go for an N router, those will be way more effective

4. Yes, that feature will be provided via an auto firmware upgrade

5. These videos are blocked by Viacom 18 on TV devices. We are working with them to resolve this and bringing them back.

Additionally we have a desktop application which syncs all your content stored on PC/Laptop enabling you to stream videos seamlessly

You should also checkout our sneak peak videos as well as some customer reviews on youtube

Does the live tv channels work outside the county. Asking because this can be one time investment for Indians living in USA etc to get Indian tv channels.
 
got it this morning.
plugged into tv and configured through mobile app.
strangely app didnt show up in play store. had to install from web.

downloaded the desktop client and its clearly a work in progress.
one laptop couldnt connect to dongle at all. after 1 hour of struggle, tried on another lappy and it connected.
the only difference, first one is running win 7 and the other is on win 8.1.

antivirus/firewall disabled completely on both, yet only win 8.1 could connect.

i tried to test the screen mirroring feature which they implemented recently and it was horrible.

there are two options 480p and 720p and both lagged like hell.

there is lag from 30-50 seconds while mirroring which makes it useless
and yes i am on wireless n.

added a folder in client to scan media files and there is no way i can remove that folder from app now. there is no context menu/settings in the client(unless i missed something). there is no way to even remove individual files after going into folders added. right click works as double click(just opens the folder). i even renamed the folder in windows and its still being shown in teewe client with old name with all files cached(yeah, i restarted client multiple times.)

media stream from lappy went smooth for the 16 secs i tried.
didnt try any online content playback from mobile yet so cant comment on that.

first impressions : not so good (i have not tried chromecast so dont know what are advantages/disadvantages over it). stay away till product matures.
