DLNA
Creation 5 will automatically find and connect to any DLNA or Chromecast device on the network. You can browse local content stored on a NAS, and even create playlists from different servers.  You can enjoy local videos, local photos and videos directly from your iOS device onto the Big Screen. The Xbox One also works really nicely as a DLNA player and Creation 5 manages it perfectly.

Chromecast
You can cast away with Creation 5 to your heart’s content –  music, radio, video & photos can all be cast to a smart TV directly from an iPhone or iPad (or a NAS) as easy as A B C! Setting up home cinemas or TVs and showing how wonderfully it all works to the client has never been easier than when using Creation 5.
