"I bought an iTunes movie, but found that Chromecast does not support playing iTunes movies? Is there anything wrong? How to cast iTunes movie to Chromecast? Please help."
Google Chromecast provides a simple and economical way to wirelessly cast videos from a smartphone, tablet or computer to a TV. To our disappointment, Chromecast only supports MP4 and WebM media formats. However, all the iTunes purchased and rented movies are in M4V format that is protected by Apple’s FairPlay DRM technology. In other words, we cannot directly play iTunes movie on Chromecast. To cast iTunes movies and TV shows to Chromecast, you need to use a third-party tool to remove DRM from iTunes movies and TV shows and convert M4V format to MP4.
