themer VS peerflix

It doesn't support nearly as many programs as dracula theme does but I'd recommend giving https://themer.dev/ a try. Supports all the popular terminals, IDEs and then some.

themer - Generate themes for your editor, terminal, wallpaper, Slack, and more.

You could try this: https://themer.dev/

Might sound lazy but might I raise you themer.dev if you ever want to do this again? Also love the colorscheme

https://themer.dev/ is also pretty neat.

An alternative - not just for VSCode, but a whole range of software - https://themer.dev/

You could have a look at Themer: https://github.com/mjswensen/themer which also has a nice Web app at https://themer.dev It let's you generate your own palette or choose from some existing/ popular ones, then exports settings/configs for a growing number of applications, f.e. vim, tux, alacritty, web browsers, other terminals etc.

When I used a Chromecast, I was fond of an even more direct method. I used a Node CLI called "peerflix" [0] to stream a video file while downloading its torrent (so there wasn't even a need to wait). Then I just opened my browser to the local network address where peerflix was hosting the h264 playlist, and used the Cast button to stream it to my device (which I believe technically means Chromecast "takes over" downloading the playlist, rather than my laptop pushing the video to it, so I just needed to use a URL with the LAN IP of my computer).

At some point I also used a tool to stream to the Chromecast directly from the CLI (castnow?) - or maybe Peerflix even had this option, I can't remember. Nowadays I prefer to watch content on my phone in bed, which is why I like Jellyfin, because the iOS client can easily stream a video I downloaded onto my computer.

It actually use peerflix as torrent streamer, github

peerflix - Streaming torrent client.

It’s this repo: https://github.com/mafintosh/peerflix

This is something I've repeated like 10 times on this subreddit, but you don't need to wait for a torrent to finish to start watching it. Literally every torrent client in the past decade supports downloading first piece files first, so you don't have to wait for the download to finish and can start watching it immediately. There's even stuff like peerflix which makes it easier.

maybe try peerflix? just put the url it gives into vlc on the chromecast
