  • (2022-08-17) Samb Rafalowski-Clements: Use to work amazingly. Used it for years and years. All of a sudden it won't even open the app! Very disappointing. I've contacted videostream, they responded that they'd log it but nothign seems ot have changed. No other app comes close to the funtionality, so it's realyl disappointing that videostream no longer works. I'm using a chromebook if it makes any difference.
  • (2022-08-09) Hoa Ho Van: Can't not open on chrome macos
  • (2022-05-03) Yana G.: Won't open anymore
  • (2022-04-24) Danny Thompson: app used to work great but it never works anymore
  • (2022-04-14) Mike Linux: Does not work anymore since the last weeks. VIdeostream starts up, get a blank screen and it closes automatically. using on latest Chrome version on Linux Mint 20.2 Cinnamon. Unuseable.
  • (2022-03-13) GuitarJams 5150: sucks never works....
  • (2022-01-31) Graham Foster: Great app, but ran into a snag with the cast button causing the screen to get a shadow/blurry overlay, but no cast options dialog to appear. The steps listed above to disable the "Views Cast Dialog" and "Upcoming UI features" flag didn't work for me as those options didn't appear in the chrome://flags list. However, what did solve this for me was to disable the "Global media controls control Cast start/stop" flag: 1. Go to chrome://flags/ 2. Search for "Global media controls control Cast start/stop" 3. On the "Global media controls control Cast start/stop" flag, change it from "Default" to "Disabled" 4. After changing it you should see a prompt in the bottom corner to restart chrome. Do so and restart the Videostream plugin and you should be good to go
  • (2022-01-19) Brad Mccray: Trash
  • (2021-11-21) Christian Bradley: Immediately attempts to install a firewall management utility.
  • (2021-10-15) Banning Leonard: Garbage. Won't play anything.
  • (2021-09-24) Rocky Wong: It would stop at the middle of the streaming. It has fixed text at the bottom that block the subtitle. Don't buy this software. They don't reply to people's email.
  • (2021-05-28) Klaus Forster (Vitality4Happiness): Don't wait time on it on cloudready OS, because it does not load any videos. The options described to solve the problem are not existing if you open chrome://flags/ in the Chome browser.
  • (2021-05-21) Ed. J.: Bug.
  • (2021-03-28) Tomasz Zieliński: it just does nothing when i pick video file, no lading screen, no nothing.
  • (2020-08-31) Dan: Works 50% of the time, the other 50% claims to be blocked by my firewall and won't cast apps to Chromecast. No way I would have paid for this if I had known how useless it was.
  • (2020-08-28) Shelby Hyatt: Will not play my movie
  • (2020-03-21) Yun M: I am using the premium version. The video is normal. But no subtitles are output. Is there any way to fix this?
  • (2020-03-13) Trường Lê: default position of the subtitle is annoying and requires users to spend money to change positions. Why don't you put it in the middle of the screen :)
  • (2020-03-01) Ed Wong: Had some issues when google updated back in early 2019 but no issues anymore. Love it so much I upgraded to premium last month. Now my family and I watch downloaded movies at home with no problems or streaming issues and full subtitle options.
  • (2020-02-15) Cody: Used to be great but hasn't worked for 6+ months on any of my computers...once you select a video files nothing happens
  • (2020-02-01) Lealdo de Góis Andrade: Until now, it's working greatly. Thanks. Let's see how it unfolds further
  • (2020-01-27) Cedric Wienold: Works great. The advertisements need a bit more moderation; I don't need to see a homicidal clown while showing my toddler kids shows.
  • (2020-01-21) Tom Villani: Doesn't play more than a minute or two without re-buffering. Tried several different videos and filetypes.
  • (2020-01-15) Wien Chan: Tried getting tech support for over a month. One rep reached out but never gave me an answer. Can someone help me with my problem? I want to like this app. Paid for the lifetime but can't get any support.
  • (2020-01-02) Matteo Prayer (Art): Asked me to download an additional app to allow this one through my firewall (already a bad sign... just give me the name I should let through the firewall and most people won't need this). Then I tried streaming different files and all of them stutter or don't resize properly to my tv. Waste of time.
  • (2019-12-13) Eric Ains-worth: Could not get vlc to cast. Tried this and it worked after I ran the firewall application. Worked flawlessly for almost all of a high quality episode, then it stopped near the end with 'buffering'... Waited 10 minutes and it was still stuck on buffering so I tried the vid on vlc and it worked after a few tries. Worth it if only because it fixes the firewall casting issue.
  • (2019-12-09) Daniel Bardos: The first extention that really works (with avi, mp4, mkv files) to play on chromecast
  • (2019-12-04) Coman Doyle: Chrome (up to date) on Mac (10.14.6) Constant issues trying to find *any* broadcast, not just chromecast on my TV: "No Cast Destination Found". Only fix is to shut down Chrome and restart and then it has no issues picking up the devices. Chromecast itself is broadcasting because my phone can pick it up but not Videostream Both on same wifi channel (2.4 GHz band) Can you please fix this - extremely annoying.
  • (2019-12-01) Andrew: This app could be great but it seems every time i use, i run into a new problem. Either the file format is not supported or it's chrome latest update that is the reason or who knows what else. I have had buffering issues, i have had files not loading, i have had computer not found (even though it's on the same wifi network), i have had the app not finding the library despite chrome running, etc. I am a member but frankly i have had enough of paying for something that does not improve. Worse, with the last version, it would not connect (local host refused to connect). I feel we are all beta testers for the team.
  • (2019-11-23) Paul Morgan (jumanjiman): a waste
  • (2019-10-26) James Cross: Regular has playback issues, continuously asks to download things to fix it but it doesn't fix it.
  • (2019-10-18) Teegan Hyena: Main reason I installed this was so I could watch a .mkv file with subtitles but turns out companies can charge for basic app features now, completely useless and a waste of time
  • (2019-09-07) Donovan Decker: Absolutely the worst. It works maybe 10% of the time. Just plain sucks. But I'm here, backed in a corner because this is the only service of its kind on here. SMH
  • (2019-08-17) Penguin Lover: It worked fine, until I recently paid for a premium membership and now it wont start!?!? What is going on?
  • (2019-08-07) Anders Seistrup: Doesn't work. try to change the quality, dies. Subtitles are not working correctly.
  • (2019-08-07) Mike Truong: Paid for a lifetime premium membership, and it has literally worked 1 time out of the over 1.5 years I have been using it. As an engineering, it is astounding that they cannot even handle the entitlements correctly.
  • (2019-07-08) Richard Liu: Subtitles keep on disappearing after a couple of minutes.
  • (2019-07-07) Robert Wan: great that it can cast an audio track, but is there a way to make it support playlists? would be nice to cast a whole folder full of audio tracks but currently it plays just one!
  • (2019-07-07) Jiri Kanicky: Good app but second line of subtitles is cut off in the last version.
  • (2019-07-03) Sahil Tandon: garbage
