Casting your device’s screen lets you mirror your device to the TV so you can enjoy the content exactly as you see it on your mobile device—only bigger.
There are two options available to cast the performance to an alternative device: iOS / AirPlay - full info available here. Chromecast - full info available here.
If you'd like to test that you can cast the event in advance of the broadcast. Please go to this testing link and try to cast it to your chosen device.

If you experience difficulties with either of these options, please enter www.dice.fm/stream into your smart TV's browser, and enter your phone number and the code to access the video. Hit play and enjoy!
