Will arlo ever make use of live viewing on a tv screen

[Brooklynzoo]

I am switching over from a wired camera setup where I was able to view my areas in a screen at all times, I was wondering if arlo has that or will they have that at some point?

You could cast from a mobile device to a smart TV...

Thanks for the info , now if I was to cast it from a mobile device will that kill the battery faster keeping the cameras on live like that?

YES, unless the cameras are plugged into ac.

BTW, you can also send Live video to the TV via firestick( gen 2 or better ) with alexa

I’ll look into giving them power at all times because I like the fact of being able to see what’s going on live.. the delay on the camera worries me a bit

Like another poster said the fire stick works really well and no logging back in.

Thanks for your input , if you don’t mind sharing exactly how you set yours up I would be so grateful

I actually  forget how i did it but it was simple maybey someone else can help here. ill try to remember.

Great thanks man

I do remember that after it connected t o my wifi it showed the smarthub. Not sure if i did anything after that. I say show driveway and it connects to it. Can only watch live view though unless im missing something.

Yes believe I can achieve what I’m trying to by making sure they have consistent power and then logging into the Arlo website and just click play.
