ChromeCast.Device not visible

[jbrepogmailcom]

Hello I launched ChromeCast.Device as instructed on Raspberry Pi on local WiFi and I would expect that I can see the device by Deezer on mobile device connected to same network. Deezer allows to stream to ChromeCast device. However the device is not found by Deezer mobile app.

That doesn't work (yet).
For now the only app it works with is this one: https://github.com/SamDel/ChromeCast-Desktop-Audio-Streamer

@SamDeld do you have any idea to work with standard device ?
Actually i'm unable to work properly with the desktop audio streamer also :/

Do you mean working together with the standard Google software (Home app, Chrome browser, etc.)? I don't know why this software isn't found by them, further reverse engineering is needed.

Actually i'm unable to work properly with the desktop audio streamer also :/

Is it not found by desktop audio streamer? What's your setup? Are both devices connected to the same wifi network?

Yes reverse engineering is needed, i search with my little skill why the server is not connected to the client.
I solved my issue, because i trying to run your application on windows with systemcalls.cs update.

So far I only tried to make the MDNS response identical to the Chromecast response (here in code). Maybe something is missing there, or another API has to be implemented, or ...

Nice! If you post the code we can create a multiplatform version!?

My target project is creating a proxy/relay for youtube video to remove ads
Client device -> Relay -> download video -> cast video from mp4 file to the official chromecast.

I search solution have virtual chromecast to do this :)

I found following project: https://github.com/tristanpenman/node-castv2
this fork is I find it very interesting i think

Thanks, that might be interesting. I'll look into it later.
The description of this project says:

... The module provides both a Client and a Server implementation of the low-level protocol. The server is (sadly) pretty useless because device authentication gets in the way for now (and maybe for good). ...

so I don't think it's a fully working example, but it migth be usefull.
