Chromecast_dongle (1)Google has updated their Chromecast companion extension for the Chrome browser that brings in a pretty useful new tweak for slinging your browser tabs to your television. If you're using the beta version of the Google Cast extension in Chrome, you'll be able to cast your tabs in full 1080p, up from the 720p option that's available in the stable version.

To top it off, the beta extension allows you to adjust the bitrate of your casted tabs, plus set a limit on the maximum FPS captured from those tabs. If you've got a nice router, you can really turn those settings up to get a fantastic experience with your Chromecast, but if you're dealing with a cheaper or slower router, you may not want to crank the settings up too high.

If you frequently use Chrome and your Chromecast, hit the link below to grab the updated extension.
