It's telling you that Flash on your computer needs to be updated. Whether it needs to be updated, you'll have to check that out. My guess is it doesn't. I'm guessing Comcast is blocking everything on it's site from playing on TV due to content agreements. BTW, did you see that what you send from your computer to your TV counts towards your bandwidth limit, if one applies. Hmmm, I was under the impression that the tool sent a command to my internet connected TV to display the content using a separate connection such that my PC was not involved. You are right, my particular TV does not have Flash but some do (like those with Google TV). Plus, I'm using the Chrome browser on my PC, which has the most currently available version of Flash installed. Also, my experiment was trying to display the same program (Episode 1 of OZ) from both the Xfinity and from the HBO GO web sites. Both came up fine on my laptop but neither displayed using the "Send to TV" tool. The whole "connecting internet content to a TV" topic remains a mystery to me. For example, my Sony TV has an included app for Amazon Instant Video, which I use all the time. But, in order to stream Amazon Prime content to my Sony tablet, I had to install an old version of Flash for Firefox (Amazon does not have an Android app for Prime). So apparently Prime uses Flash and I assume that it must be compiled into the app on my TV. I am in fact considering the Cromecast. Finally, yes, I'm aware that streaming content would count toward any internet usage limit and I'd need to monitior that. However, I'm online about 15 hours every day (I work from home), and have never gotten close to any limit.
