AppleTV doesn't let you cast from obscure streaming websites.

Chromecast does though. That's why it will always be better.

Huh? You can Airplay those. Not sure what do you want to stream there that would be a better experience than downloading it outright from Usenet or torrents.

Chromecast is fine for what it is and a very good value but it does not compete with Apple TV or Nvidia Shield.

You can airplay any video playing on your phone with the AppleTV

Flixtor.to

By all means, please attempt to cast. Not mirror your phone, but actually cast.

Yeah, AirPlay works fine with flixtor. It shows up in the media player in the control center and allows you to airplay just like any other video
