Don't know much about it myself but you do need the cast plugin for google chrome, is that installed on your pc/laptop/phone?

Sorry, just seen you can't download it for some reason?

You could try screen mirroring through the Android Chromecast app. It's limited on the devices it'll run on but will result in you seeing the same conent on your TV as your phone. Ok for websites, but rubbish for watching videos.

You can't screen mirror from the Tab 3, it's not a supported model. Maybe added with the Lollipop upgrade.

Sending a video from the Chrome browser only works if it's unprotected and the player isn't doing anything funny.
