NymphCast VS bluez

Are you looking for something like this?

A different altern@tive gor media streaming, dimilar to chromecast, is Nymphcast: https://github.com/MayaPosch/NymphCast

Both clients and servers are available, it also works at a higher level.

I've been watching NymphCast for a while now, but I've never actually run it before.

I'm trying to cast any video from YouTube to a RP4 using the Chromecast (DIAL?) protocol. How do you do this? So far I've tried PiYouTube, RaspberryCast, PiCAST, PYCASTER, and NymphCast. All unsuccessfully.

No. You need more apps to support https://github.com/MayaPosch/NymphCast/ you can DIY a home network with something like this. There used to be picast and some other android apps that allowed you to do it (by running android on a system that ran the videos) etc

Don't send me to pre-alpha software like Nymphcast

Upon going on the website BlueZ there is a lot of details about the versions, downloading the thing, releases, features, and a FAQ page with very little info.

And bluez for the Bluetooth part

You can use command sudo apt install bluez to install bluez, a Bluetooth Linux stack, and then install Blueman, a GUI Bluetooth manager

Option 3: raise a PR on the bluez people at http://www.bluez.org/ to include such a timeout into the driver (or contribute code to do it)

I would strongly appreciate a model with Linux user testimony to it playing nice with BlueZ/Pipewire - although it feels as if more gadgets have worked OOTB in the past half-decade, I'm loathe to dump $100+ on hardware which might not even connect.

Well it's undoubtedly using http://www.bluez.org/ but this is just how all linux systems work (because they pretty much all use bluez), idk what this guy is talking about a driver for

the command you used is for a source-based install, not a pip-based install. did you also try installing via pip? python -m pip install pybluez also see http://www.bluez.org/
