streaming/casting to Now TV box

[#1]

Looking to get a Now TV box for the bedroom.  I understand it cannot access Netflix ( apparently it can be done by 'hacking' the software, but I don't feel confident enough to do that). I have seen one, and only one, review that says you can stream from an android device to the now TV box so you can 'cast' what you are watching . I was wondering if I could 'cast' Netflix directly from my phone or tablet to the tv via the Now tv box?

Has anyone had any experience of this please?

Unfortunately it isn't as far as I'm aware.

A NowTV box is basically a sky-interefered, dumbed-down, lobotomised and neutered Roku box (which CAN get Netflix), so if your after such features, look into getting an actual Roku box or stick, or even an Amazon fire stick or box (which is just an android device with a different skin)...
