chromecast

I'm trying to get a video playing on Chromecast - it's available as an MS Smooth Streaming manifest ( example ), but I can't specify format=mpd-time-csf ( example ), as it's not available in that format. Directly passing the manifest URL to the Chromecast doesn't work yet, but will be available for the final SDK release, as stated by Les Vogel here: Playing Smoothstreaming URL by providing Manifest file of smoothstreaming to Chromecast device As I understand it can play dash/smooth videos by embedding the dash.js player into the receiver app. However, dash.js only plays smooth streaming videos

I'm working on an Android app that supports sending music to a ChromeCast. We'd like users to be able to cast entire music playlists while the app runs in the background. When my Nexus 7 is not connected to USB power and I turn the screen inactivity timeout to 15 seconds in the settings, the app will disconnect from the ChromeCast about 90 seconds after the device powers off its screen. I've identified that I'm getting a MediaRouter.Callback call to onRouteUnselected , and since that's the callback I get when a user disconnects from a route, I'm handling it by tearing down the

Is there any way to connect to a ChromeCast using standard ( desktop ) Java. I am looking for a way to automate our testing and would like our CC:s to play a video automatically. So far I have found this project: https://github.com/vitalidze/chromecast-java-api-v2 But so far I have not been able to get it working. I can find the Chromecast just fine using mDNS, but when I try to connect to it I just get a close from the CC. My testcode: public static void main(String[] args) { try { ChromeCasts.startDiscovery(); // Wait for CC:s to apear Thread.sleep(5000); for (ChromeCast cc : ChromeCasts.get

I'm trying to get a list of cast devices programmatically in Android, without using the MediaRouteActionProvider button in the SDK. I create a MediaRouter and MediaRouteSelector like so: mMediaRouter = MediaRouter.getInstance(this); mMediaRouteSelector = new MediaRouteSelector.Builder() .addControlCategory(CastMediaControlIntent.CATEGORY_CAST) .build(); I then start discovery: mMediaRouter.addCallback(mMediaRouteSelector, mMediaRouterCallback, MediaRouter.CALLBACK_FLAG_PERFORM_ACTIVE_SCAN); In the onProviderAdded callback method, I only seem to get 3 providers: Android, com.google.android

I've tried to implement lock screen controls for google Chromecast video streaming app with the latest GoogleCast framework for iOS (2.1.0). I've corrected the example Chromecast app - https://github.com/googlecast/CastVideos-ios Have added UIBackgroundModes row to the Info.plist Added MediaPlayer framework. And added the following code to ChromecastDeviceController.m #import <MediaPlayer/MPNowPlayingInfoCenter.h> #import <MediaPlayer/MPMediaItem.h> ....... - (BOOL)loadMedia:(NSURL *)url thumbnailURL:(NSURL *)thumbnailURL title:(NSString *)title subtitle:(NSString *)subtitle mimeType:(NSString

I'm working on a project with custom video player, based on AVPlayer. Trying to integrate google cast. I've made integration based on google tuts: https://codelabs.developers.google.com/codelabs/cast-videos-ios/ But with conversion to swift.

But, i have strange behavior: 1) Start casting, open video, then another video, then third video. 2) Stop casting 3) Go to another video, enable
