Chromecast and Baidu Shadow Stick are streaming devices that allow users to cast video from mobile devices to televisions. The Shadow Stick uses a custom Android system while Chromecast runs on top of ChromeOS. User experience with the Shadow Stick is poor according to an assessment - it has weak WiFi signal strength, an ugly interface, bugs, and limited storage space despite 4GB of storage. The device runs hot but not as hot as other streaming devices.

1. chromecast and Baidu shadow stick What is the difference?
WWW.APPHTECH.COM
Baidu shadow stick streaming video is a proprietary protocol, airplay dlan these agreements come
streaming video
In principle, then, seemingly due ChromeCast is put on top of a custom over ChromeOS

------ Here is the experience ------
ChromeCast personally never used, but watched the demo video and listening to people who
used to feel, fairly smooth, more trouble is to put video video should only be thrown into the

Baidu shadow stick hand yesterday, followed by the three micro-Bo spraying this product. My
assessment is saying: "The current user experience is poor, not worth starting" as follows:
1. Baidu shadow stick wifi signal is not very good, do not know that I was one example or what,
I've come into the position of the phone is also a TV hdmi interface, there are three grid wifi
signal, the download speed is about 500kb per second (10M broadband) But the same location
shadow stick on the left 17kb per second (pit father ah, this is not a feather to see the video)
2 interface is ugly, open interface after I was shocked, very strange blue background, excessive
unnatural, in short not feel nice cottage STB interface (I bought an open Bor, although the card
does not work, but the interface than this good-looking)
3.Bug lot, a network started bad, life and death are not connected to the video, then
Paozhaopaozhe stuck, then no one can make me restart button shadow stick, only pulled out again.
Recommend that future products can be added to a hardware reset button
4. Obviously built-in 4GB of storage space, but unfortunately the basic user can not use because
you can not cache the video can not download anything.
5 heat, in general, a little better than a box of millet, millet heat faster than the box, but the
temperature will not rise soon stabilize.
