I then logged into my Google Play account under WSA, verified it was me via my actual cellphone, installed the TiVo app, logged into it, and voila, it found the Bolt and I am streaming right now from it. (as directed by instructions in link above) \Install.ps1 which just launches the WSA installer Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy Bypass I then launched Powershell app in administrator mode, and entered: I used 7-zip Windows application to unzip the compressed installer archive file downloaded above and put the unzipped files into the '64' folder. I then created a new folder, called '64' in the root folder of C:\ drive. I installed the version 'WSA-GApps-pico_2205.40000.21.0_圆4_Release-Nightly.zip' but suspect others would work equally well.įirst you enable virtualization, uninstall any previous WSA, and enable developer mode in Windows per above instructions at same link as the download. So first download that WSA installer at The Easy Way to Get The Google Play Store Working on Windows 11 - this link also includes instructions to install it. This is most certainly not an official Microsoft download, but obviously, makes WSA MUCH more useful because you can easily download virtually ANY other Android app and run it emulated in Windows. An altered version of the WSA installer, includes Google Play (the app store for Android). WSA DOES work, IF you install the app using Google Play. In BlueStacks, it did not detect it was on the same network as the TiVo. In WSA (Windows Subsystem for Android - the Android emulator in Windows), the TiVo app failed to side load due to an error. I realize this is an old thread, I could not get the app to work for in-home streaming with either BlueStacks or WSA. I heard you can install Win11 from a flash key and the TPM issue doesn't come up but I'm not sure it's worth the effort. Since I built the desktop myself, no motherboards at that time had TPMs, and Microsoft doesn't support installing Win11 if you don't have a TPM (and I'm not that motivated to upgrade). My PC is a desktop in a fixed spot, so a cable is a no brainer. Seems like a lot of software gymnastics is probably only worth it for a Win laptop (although your phone acts as the player controls, so maybe a cable is low hanging fruit. If I want to play it on my PC, I have to use a cable. If I want to airplay it to my Mac, I just choose the Mac instead of the TV. The controls (skip F/R, play, CC) are on the iPhone or iPad, although after the last update the controls were only on my iPad in an experiment I just did. If I want to watch the TiVo from my primary home I stream it from the TiVo app on my iPhone and airplay it to the TV. I have a vacation home without cable and I primarily stream from that location. I used to do that myself until I got an Apple TV. In windows, can you just cable your phone to your PC? I have a buddy that plays videos on his iPhone to his TV this way.
