nest camera won't stream to TV

[les101]

I purchased Nest doorbell, indoor, and outdoor cameras. All work great with the Google Home app. However, when I ask Google Home to stream to one of my android TVs it will stream the doorbell camera to any TV I have but states that the other two cameras are not set-up to stream to remote screens. What do I need to change to get the other cameras to stream to my TVs. If it matters two TVs are Sony and one TV is a Samsung. Again doorbell camera streams flawlessly.

Hi Les101,  I'm an end user like you.   This is a user forum so hopefully some other user will chime in with the answer.  But another option is for  you to open an official support ticket and speak/chat with an actual Google Tech.  Here is the link:

Talked to tech support. Sadly the Nest indoor and Nest outdoor camera are not allowed to be streamed to a device other than the Google devices. Since the Nest camera was released before Google took control it has the capability to stream to other devices like a TV. That is a poor customer support.
