  • Show HN: Ytcast – cast YouTube videos to your smart TV from command-line

    Chromecast is completely closed-source, I'd argue against buying into that ecosystem.

    Nymphcast [1] is an alternative, but wouldn't be compatible with existing clients, since the protocol is different.

    Miraclecast [2] is an implementation of miracast/wi-fi display that runs on Linux. There is also a myriad of alternatives: vnc, raspicast, etc.

    Leapcast [3] used to be an implementation of what you want (while using chrome as a black box).

    There are some implementations of airplay.
