How does it work?
1. Open your favorit website which contains the videos with the built-in web browser. Don't press the play button.
2. Next, press the mp4 button in the bottom-right corner.
3. If your desired file is supported, the videos can now be found in the playlist.
4. You reach the playlist by hitting the list button in the upper-right corner (within the action bar).
5. After that you can select the video you want to watch. A new activity will open: press play to watch it directly on the "small" device or hit the cast button first and connect the app with your big screen.
