    Does the Android TV version have any relation to what the Google Chromecast runs too?

      The newer Chromecasts with “Google TV” are just Android TV with a different launcher. If you have a remote control you have Android TV.

      I don’t think so. This version runs on AndroidTV and FireTV boxes. I use it on my Nvidia Shield.

      I think the chromecast version runs from the web player directly.
