Database Develop

Any Hope of more (Official) Content?

I'd like to start a thread for news/rumors of more officially supported services.
Not casting web-pages, or demo Apps/Hacks, but Official Apps from other services that support Chromecast.
Any hope?

well hulu and pandora is confirmed, but the main problem right now is the SDK isn't complete (they have a preview one out though).
Once the SDK is done we will start seeing a lot of content I bet.
I am looking forward to bitcasa support. That will be awesome.

I hope so - I think this is the first step of moving away from Broadcast TV for TV entertainment. This is the revolution that Apple had planned to do but didn't. When people do reviews of the Cast I think they miss the largest point. Controlling the content using an interface we all love (phone or tablet) is a giant step forward. Using the built in smart features of a TV or DVD to search for a YouTube video is a terrible experience. You need a link to find most things and those are shared in communication links in your phone.

There is still no "cast" button on Pandora. Did you mean it is confirmed that they are working on it?

Ya i thought that is what you were talking about, what else the chromecast will be able to do. Its confirmed it will be able to use hulu and pandora should be comming kinda soon. And HBO, Vimeo, Redbox Instant, Vevo (?), Devour (?), Blip (?) (maybe these are britsh or something, i've never heard of them), have all mentioned they are planning on it.
(where I got the information)

http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/07/30/redbox-instant-and-vimeo-coming-to-chromecast
So ya in total we have
right now
youtube
netflix
google play music
google play video
soon
hulu
pandora
HBO go
announced support
Vimeo
Redbox Instant
Vevo
Devour
Blip
plus soon we get the official sdk and we will get 100s of apps I bet

Hulu said they were interested in adding it some day. I wouldn't be expecting it anytime soon. The only real partner besides Netflix announced at launch was Pandora. My guess is Pandora will release an update about the same time the final SDK is released. Google is probably working with Pandora as sort of a beta test of the SDK.

rPlay for iOS - a ChromeCast receiver submitted to Apple Store

This app is now available in Apple Store:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/rplay/id692511073?ls=1&mt=8
I submitted an app to Apple store, called rPlay, which does Chromecast emulation. The app is being reviewed right now. Here is the description:
"rPlay tunrs your iPhone/iPad/iPod into a chromecast device, so you can stream music and video from another device using chromecast enabled apps, such as YouTube and Google Music, etc. You can in turn stream from your iOS device to your Apple TV, this way, you can stream chromecast media to your Apple TV."
I hope Apple can approve this FREE app.
It supports YouTube/GoogleMusic/Custom Apps, chrome tab browsing is not there yet due to the lack of features in Safari browser.
This is a YouTube video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4urxecUbAk
Some screenshots are attached:

We will also release a Windows and Android version soon. On non-iOS platforms, rPlay is much more than ChromeCast, it also has AirPlay/AirPlay Mirroring, and upcomping Miracast emulation, etc.

Some screenshots for the Windows version, will be freely available, most likely next week or two.
Windows version supports AirPlay Mirroring, ChromeCast (YouTube/Google Music/Browser Tab mirroring/Custom Apps), etc.

Can't wait. Sounds awesome!!

Do you mean netfix chromecasting?
This is not easy, unless netflix app is available on that platform, and assuming it takes the same parameters as the netflix version on the real chromecast device. We will definitely give it a try.
Right now, Windows version supports all features, except netflix.

rPlay: Gave it a shot - looks pretty cool
Hey, thanks to huisinro for this great job. I received notification on sundy night about the iOS app has been approved. Gave it a try running YouTube app on my android device and using my iPad 1 as Chromecast receiver. Works out of the box. I've wrote a blog entry Use your iPad as a Chromecast receiver - and now I'm eager to get in touch with a Windows and Android port of rPlay.

New to Chromecast

So I recently bought a chromecast and now I am looking for apps to use with it. Avia caught my eye so I will try to buy it however are there any free or useful apps to use with Chromecast. My chromecast isnt rootable so I guess I will use officially supported apps only. My main purpose for chromecast was to stream locally stored mp3s on my phone to my TV and home theather so are there any other apps that will do the job. Also do suggest any free alternatives or ways to get Avia support for free since google wallet isnt supported in my country even though paying 3 dollars for an app isnt much trouble.

Well yeah I am aware of Avias capabilities and have also used Google Music but Google Music manager isnt supported for my country yet again so I cant use that. Avia seems like the best option for me but because it requires me to use a google wallet account it may be impossible to buy it in my country.

You could subscribe to plex pass through their website , which doesn't use Google play and the app is free to download, but you need a plex pass account.

Oh, only saw him state that he can't use Google wallet, they accept credit cards too, or do they region lock those too? Maybe contact Plex and see what they can do, they are usually pretty accommodating.

I'm currently using Plex Media Server on my desktop to host my music (app is free for the PC) and then use Avia on my phone or tablet to access the Plex Media Server and stream to my chromecast on my home theater. Its a good work around until chromcast features are free on Plex.

Avia is on Amazon App Store too, and that version should use Amazon's in-app purchase rather than Google Wallet.
Can you get Google Wallet to activate using a Google Play redemption code, rather than credit card, or is it completely unsupported for your country?
Seems the first purchase (even a $0.00 purchase) requires adding some funds either through credit card or Google Play redemption code.

I can use amazon but Avia requires an in app purchase which is only available through google wallet. And Plex is the same story since its only available on the app store and not on amazon. I hate that google restricts regions like this. This is exactly the same reason why I had to buy my Nexus 5 for about $500 rather than for $450 through the google store.

Uninstall the Play Store version and install the Amazon version. The Amazon version uses Amazon's in-app purchase which does not require Google Wallet. It would be it required Google Wallet it would be fairly pointless to have it on Amazon.

I see "Plex for Android ($4.99)" on Amazon.

Yeah I guess when I searched the entire Amazon store I didnt find it, I looked harder and found it in the dedicated section for apps. Will give it a try though. However which one do you think would be better. I did manage to find a way to get Avia as well, through a friend's credit card living in the US.

It really depends on what your media library looks like.
In actuality they aren't head-to-head competitors much at all.
Avia is better if...
All your media is in a Chromecast-compatible format, or you are willing to convert it to a Chromecast-compatible format
You have a lot of media on your phone/tablet that you want to play and is Chromecast-compatible
You have a DLNA server that is not a Plex server and you want to cast content from it
You don't want to have a media server running (you don't have a server, or a system you're willing to have running for media playback)
Plex is better if...
Your media is not in a Chromecast-compatible format or you have no idea what that means
You have no clue what transcoding means, or you know what transcoding means, but you are unwilling to transcode your media library to make it Chromecast-compatible
You are okay with running Plex Media Server on a system for media playback
You have multiple playback devices (Roku, etc) that you use
Note that Chromecast support for Plex is currently limited to PlexPass members, but is planned to be released to the general public later.
I could be mistaken, but I believe someone said they use Avia to cast from Plex Media Server?

That actually made things really easy, Avia is the choice for me since I mostly only play mp3s and have my library stored on my Nexus 7 or 5. I wanted to ask, if I use a friend's credit card from the US and buy the app on my account would I be able to use the app outside the US or would I be able to download it on my device while staying in my country which doesnt support google wallet services.

Well if your only trying to stream content on the unit I do not see how location restrictions apply.
Apps aren't usually the reason for locations restrictions, The Content that the App makes available is usually why it's here but not there!
and it should be pointed out to everyone who complains about Google not making things available outside of US that is usually because of Import restrictions the EU has enacted not because Google doesn't want to make it available or can't!
So if you buy the App I see no reason why where you use it is going to be an issue especially since your intention is to stream your own content.

The Plex employees in their forums won't speculate, but they definitely aren't implying that it's soon. The more experienced long-term Plex users seem to be suggesting to expect around 6 months based on past experience. But for all we know it could be tomorrow, and they're just doing a really good job of keeping it quiet.

Truth is the Plex Pass fee is really only required for the Plex Player apps...
The Server is free! And truth is the Server is the most important part of that system because it works with any DLNA/UPnP player.
Right now aVia is the only player other than Plex that can play to CCast.
But it won't be the only one for long....
So it makes a ton of sense to be running a Plex Server (or any transcoding DLNA server for that matter) despite the fact you won't get all the features of it until a better player app that supports DLNA and CCast fully (With transcoding) comes along.

I'm using the Plex for android and stream media to my CC without any problem for about a week or so. It worked after they made an update recently. you just need to buy the app which is about 5 bucks.

No just buying the app isn't enough...
CCast support requires PlexPass account. You can run the app and stream to your device but the CCast streaming shouldn't not work unless you have a PlexPass subscription.
I will note someone had a link to a developer version of the Plex App that bypassed this requirement but I wouldn't trust it...

I have had Plex for some time now and they are right, it is a anyone's guess when the support opens for casting. The developer version works just fine in my opinion as well. Avia does most of what I want anyway so if you want to put your money in the right place now, get the avia app honestly.

Isn't a month membership only like $3.99? I imagine that would be worth it for the time being. Just pay the few dollars dude. Not a big deal.

Quite Understandable....I'm not even sure you can buy just one month as I thought the Sub Options were a Year and Lifetime.
I understand why CCast support is PlexPass only at this point. If you're a regular visitor to the Plex Forums you would see a myriad of issues being reported regarding the transcoding and specifically surround Audio. This is on top of the usual problems we talk about here such as loss of control, Network, Router and Connection issues.
Right now the PlexPass users are sort of acting as the Beta Testers for this since they are the most familiar with Plex and it's workings.
To open it up to the Public right now would probably overwhelm the support forum rehashing the Bugs they already know about and add the reports of things that are not broken just because the user didn't know there is a setting in Plex set wrong they didn't know exists.
I would guess that when the Transcoder is running perfectly you might see CCast support go Public.
But they may also wait until they finish their Music and Picture support which at this point does not exist at all.
aVia does work provided your library doesn't need transcoding but if you do then it might be worth paying for the PlexPass at least until they release it publicly.
Plex right now is the only system that works exactly as Google intended it to when they developed the CCast.
Mobile App tells the CCast to load a player app and play a stream direct from a server without needing the device that launched it once it starts.
Plex is the only system that transcodes local files for playback as RealPlayer requires you to upload to their cloud to get a transcoded stream back.
Perhaps the announcement about the 10 Apps with CCast support being added was a bit of stretching the truth for Christmas Shopping Marketing Purposes...
Cause lets be honest none of the options for Local Content are perfected or issue free. aVia has had at least 10 Updates since the announcement maybe even more....
Most of the work on the Plex side has been done to the server side because I haven't seen any updates to the Android apps itself, certainly not as many as the aVia Player has....
All the Local playback App options do the job better than CCast did before they were released...
But thats about all you can really say about them. They are all still learning how to crawl at this point and none are what I would call a perfected and Mature option that does everything we expect they should yet.
It's going to take time...What CCast does it much more complicated than what Miracast, Roku and Airplay do.

Why didn't your post the playstore links?
Tried the app, couldn't cast anything (hoped for entire tab casting, later saw it should allow only casting various videos on various webpages).
Maybe it works and would appeal to some but it's not really intuitive..

This gives vGet some competition. Thanks for letting us know.

Check out the Chromecast description, not all videos will cast, and that makes sense.
Amctv.com videos aren't in a format that the native Chromecast player understands.

Thank you. Tab casting is cool idea, but it will drain the phone battery just like screen mirroring (Miracast). Let's see if we can make that happen with Chromecast.
Added the links to Play store as well.

About a month initially with the Chromecast "preview" SDK and then a week to update it after the final SDK was released. It took longer because we didn't use the Cast SDK's companion library. We didn't like the default look and feel of Google's remote control buttons all squished up in one corner of the screen. Hope it helps.

...and with the latest update of vGet and its unusually high cost, this browser looks like a sweet deal. I might give it a better test this time around

Maybe this would be a good community to post a beta on for a version that supports 4.4
