Connect the Chromecast to an HDMI port on your TV and then connect the power cable to it and plug it in. The first time you connect your Chromecast, you will need to download the Google Home app on your smartphone and use the Google Home app to set up your Chromecast.

Select your Chromecast device and click Next. Once your Oculus Quest 2 detects your Chromecast device, it will appear in the casting menu.
