Chrome 51 has Cast functionality built-in, you can also mirror a tab into Hangouts

02 July, 2016
Accessible from the Tools menu, the option renders the dedicated Cast icon almost unnecessary.

It only allows me to cast and mirror my tabs and desktop to my Chromecast, I don't see any option for Hangouts even though I enabled cloud services like the article stated. I'm either doing something wrong or something is out of whack.

        nice,now I can enjoy this update free for lifetime with my Chromecast 2 and iBall s701 via pixel V2

          Edge had that for a while. Though I'm running the insider preview which will become anniversary, Edge has gotten so much better.

          I either use Opera or Edge. Chrome has always given me issues and is a memory/cpu hog. The new opera is actually pretty good and has a built in add blocker and free built in VPN.
