Fuck my prior preparation day with the Chromecast with Google TV before the hotel checking…
I don’t travel too often so my Chromecast needed some tweaking (AKA updating system and apps etc), I like to take it as a travel companion and found out this shitty frame around the TV.
It is the first time it happened to me, I can see this being annoying for frequent travelers.
i hate when they do this shit, so obnoxious

Yes. I work in hospitality design and everything is meant to be tamper proof.
I’ve seen some tamper proof TV’s in which they add an HDMI\USB hub to plug in our devices too.
Depends on the TV. That one is a cheap LG.

But they don’t buy those.

Man … That shit just makes me want to do malicious shit to their ports.

You should if they’re trying to lock you out of it I think.
Or they just don’t want to provide support when people start plugging in incompatible devices.
Incompatible with HDMI?
The device that is connected to it might be having unrelated issues but not playing, non-tech people might be trying to connect something other than hmdi like say dataport, and a ton of other things. Or the people don’t know how to switch inputs, or keep trying to use hmdi2 because that is what they have at home even though they plugged it into hdmi1.
Just a bunch of time consuming fun.
Fair enough :)
Why Roku no worku!
Lots of things are incompatible with HDMI. For example, if I plug my mouse into it it’ll probably cause issues.
