Description

Controls Chromecast devices from Linux and exposes control through D-Bus. It is useful for desktop integrations, scripts, or tools that need to discover and command Cast playback on the local network.

Use it only with devices and networks you are allowed to control. Media commands can interrupt playback for other people, and discovery depends on local network visibility and firewall settings.
