Watch ESPN3 on Google Chromecast

Writing by on Sunday, 2 of March , 2014 at 4:31 pm

If your ESPN3 video opens up in a popup (or a condensed window as they call it) and you don’t see the “Google Cast” option, then this article from Encosia explains how.

Step 1:
In the Popup (where there’s no Google Cast Option) Copy the URL,
http://espn.go.com/watchespn/player/_/id/1655987/size/condensed/

Step 2:
In a Google Chrome Tab (where you do have Google Cast) paste just a part of the URL
http://espn.go.com/watchespn/player/_/id/1655987/

In the Tab you should see the option to “Google Cast”. These two screenshots should explain it.

Step 1

ESPN_Condensed

Step 2

ESPN_Chromecast

Alternatively, there’s an option in Google Chrome that’s not available on Ubuntu (at this time) so didn’t work for me.

Right Click Window Title in the Popup (where you’re not able to Google Cast)
Select “Show As Tab”
