Chromecast Output
Request to use Chromecast as a way to display normal outputs & stage outputs.
Chromecast isn't supported by Electron yet, but there might be a workaround. I will not prioritize this feature!
Here are some resources I found:
- https://github.com/Reggino/chromecaster/blob/master/src/chromecast.ts
- https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/869
- https://www.npmjs.com/package/electron-chromecast

Nice! Have you thought about NDI?
I've seen some probably abandoned repo (like https://www.npmjs.com/package/ndi.js), and there is SDK available to download (https://ndi.video/download-ndi-sdk/) with usage examples. I didn't study the license, but I guess it's ok (like this plugin for OBS https://github.com/obs-ndi/obs-ndi)
I have had a lot of requests for NDI support. And I have looked at alternatives for adding it, but haven't managed to figure it out yet! But NDI is high up on the list!
NDI support for Windows/MacOS in version 0.9.5! 🎉
I have to catch up with polish translation!

Amazing work @vassbo (like actually, it's really not an easy feature to implement!) In your testing, how did you find its performance especially with video playback & animations? I've been working on similar NDI support in my own apps - totally different tech stack, but still interested :)
Thank you @navhaxs! 😊 I got a lot of help from this repo: https://github.com/rse/vingester. I didn't notice a lot of performance loss on my computer at least, but my testing is minimal. I set the default frame rate to 30, with the option to change to 60 fps at most. It might lag behind a bit on 60 fps, but nothing much that I have noticed.
Any chance NDI support is coming to Linux? I'm a linux guy at heart but I have to keep using macOS and ProPresenter because most if not everything about our setup is NDI. Have you seen this repo? I use it as a display with a miniPC as a confidence monitor. Might be some goodness in there to take inspiration from??
Chromecast support closed as not planned by Electron today (after 10 years), so closing this as well! At least we got NDI.
