Description

Sends local media files or supported streams to Chromecast devices from the command line. It is useful for terminal users who want quick playback control without opening a full media-casting application.

Casting reveals media titles and network activity to devices on the local network. Choose the target Chromecast carefully and avoid casting private files on shared networks.
