Videos von X ist vielleicht nicht die einfachste Disziplin. Aber 5 Videos anzubieten, von denen ich keines auf der Seite finde und dafür das erste und einzige das ich wollte nicht zu finden, ist dann doch eher ungenügend.

This is excellent. The cast button seems to have vanished from Chrome, but this does the job at least as well, making watching video from a Chromebook via a Chromecast on our big TV simple.

Ho installato questa estensione nella speranza che mi consentisse di inviare i video delle pagine web visitate tramite Chrome al mio TV LG con un Chromecast connesso ad una delle prese HDMI sul retro. Osservo che l'estensione funziona benissimo con i video della sua pagina demo e con i video di diversi siti tipo Repubblica.it ma non con quelli di altri siti (tipo corriere.it e rai.it); i video vengono correttamente "scoperti" quando si aprono le pagine web che li contengono ma poi quando si avvia la riproduzione, sul TV appare unicamente l'icona di Castbuddy al centro dello schermo e il video non parte. Forse si tratta di un problema con il formato dei video su questi siti?

Doesn't stream for me. It detects the video link (m3u8) It detects the device I want to cast to (Nest Hub) It initializes the video but the screen stays black and busy but never plays. I guess I'm stuck using Web Video Caster for android to stream my links. meh!
