Has anyone tried the BYD Cast App?
I just saw it in the BYD App Store and decided to download it. I do not have the Video Capture card it requires

Just seen it, not tested tho
Interesting. Does this mean the screen can be used for casting to while driving?
Just tried in my wife’s Dolphin using iPhone and Steam Deck with a ugreen usb c capture card. Couldn’t get it to work, car detects the card, phone/steam deck detect the card as a display, but the app says there is no connection between capture card and iPhone or steam deck. Tried connecting a power source too but no luck. Maybe there are some settings to tweak 🤷
Exactly the same with me but with a BYD Atto 3 and a Nintendo Switch 2 or an Android Phone. I have the UGREEN capture card connected to the USB A port, with power going into the side of it from one of the cars USB C ports. Then connect the capture card to my Phone/Switch 2 and tell them to mirror to the device then get: https://preview.redd.it/w1bk95doqodg1.jpeg?width=4080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=14afd703c7b32a190cecd735c3f25d40146d759f So the car recognizes the UGREEN device and my phone recognizes it - but the car doesn't see the Phone/Switch 2
It only works when the car is in P gear which for me limits the use cases a lot
I don't have the cable but when I tried to run app while driving, it did not work. Asked to be in P gear
In the German Seal Forum, a user just plugged in his UGreen Capture Card and then he could connect notebook/switch/phone: https://www.byd-seal-forum.de/forum/thread/1688-byd-cast-app/?postID=50525#post50525
I have the same experience, I've tried different devices that use DP with the USB-C UGREEN Video Capture Card but it gets stuck to that screen without showing any video.
Had some luck after restarting the infotainment. It’s ok, not bad but not great. Don’t know if it’s a limitation with the car or cheap capture card. Slight input lag means probably better for video, but it’s a cool feature I’d like to see develop further! https://preview.redd.it/428gsojmakeg1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3d1bdc36b0d3008d11acd3cd67e378cc05787835
That got it working for me thanks! :) I noticed if I unplug and plug in again I have to restart the infotainment again, which is a little annoying but not the end of the world! I tried it with Netflix while fast charging and it largely worked well, every now and again picture and audio dropped for about a second but it recorded quite quickly
Are you in Australia? Was it in the app store or do you have the APK?
Does it work in cars other than the seal
I’m in the UK. Was available in the BYD Store. Assume it’s available everywhere
I have it working in a Dolphin Surf (as it’s know in the UK)
Installed the app earlier today on my Dolphin Dynamic here in Australia. Just need to purchase the right cables to use as the data port is the USB A one (USB C is 65w only, no data)
Is this what people use as capture card? https://amzn.asia/d/2TSPePm I'm guessing we need switch dock something like this as well, hdmi cable, and a power. https://amzn.asia/d/ihCUhQa
Need to scroll down on byd store app. I didn't know we can scroll down until now 🤣
