      Option 1: PC/Android: Using a Streaming Device (Chromecast, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, etc.)

      If you have a streaming device like Chromecast, Roku, or Amazon Fire TV connected to your TV, you can easily stream your rental by following these steps:

      2. Open your Video on Demand purchase confirmation email and find the “Watch Now” button to start playback.
      3. Cast or stream the video to your TV using the streaming device's casting/streaming feature (process varies according to your equipment).

      1. Connect your Apple device and TV to the same Wi-Fi network.
      2. Open the video on your Apple device via your Video on Demand confirmation email. 
      3. Tap the AirPlay icon (it looks like a rectangle with an upward arrow) and select your TV.
      4. Start playing the video, and it will appear on your TV screen.
