mkchromecast VS manuskript

You can forward a Chrome window to it via your web browser, or you can use something like https://mkchromecast.com/ to push local videos to it.

Wow... I haven't used a ChromeCast in about 6 years. Ok, have you installed MKChromecast? Last Time I used a ChromeCast I was on Ubuntu, and followed instructions here however I see on MKChromecast page they have an instructional video if you hit the cast button and goto bottom of page.

You can use VLC with the chromecast renderer (playback -> renderer) for that, I've also used https://github.com/muammar/mkchromecast in the past.

I need to stream a captured video input from my Ubuntu Kinetic to a smart TV or iPad sink via Chromecast/Miracast or whatever. Can this be done without VLC (not reliable)? Mkchromecast is not working in Kinetic yet, and GNOME Network Displays only casts physical monitors.

I think this may help you in your search https://mkchromecast.com/

I have this. I don't have a pie but you will have to Google your way through and try I guess.

Video games won't work with >1 sec. delay, and it seems to be an issue with mkchromecast per https://github.com/muammar/mkchromecast/issues/61 .

I want to use Manuskript (https://github.com/olivierkes/manuskript) since the novella that I am writing is not very linear, so I though this program will help me. Instead of trying to write on Ms. Word or G-docs.

A free writing tool that I use (a lot) is Manuskript (works well on both Windows and Linux): https://github.com/olivierkes/manuskript

I'll jump on the wagon to promote manuskript. It's technically still in alpha, but it's functional enough to work with, and getting more people interested might help the development. It's open source and cross-platform and has lots of interesting features (some of which I still don't know how to use).

Manuskript is a good writing tool imo.

Manuskript

I suggest either Manuskript or, as mentioned, Scrivener. If you can deal with the Markdown formatting, Obsidian is an extremely powerful solution, albeit at a steep learning curve.
