• Playing music via WiFi on a device on the same network

  What type of speaker? I use https://github.com/SamDel/ChromeCast-Desktop-Audio-Streamer to stream things to ChromeCast Audio devices. It technically streams everything from my computer, not just MusicBee

• What is the max amount of google minis you have had play music from Spotify at once?

  I know its not the workaround you might be looking for, but something you could use until you figure it out. Just install https://github.com/SamDel/ChromeCast-Desktop-Audio-Streamer on your computer, and then open the spotify app, or navigate to the webapp. From here you can play your music and your desktop audio will cast to your speaker group without stuttering. Keep in mind all audio from the computer will play on the speaker group, with a delay, so you'll want to turn down the speakers on your computer to zero. Good luck

• Cast Desktop without Audio?
  1 project | /r/googlehome | 31 Dec 2022

  Does anyone know a way I can cast only the video portion of my desktop and not the audio? For example, I use Chromecast Audio Streamer to stream my desktop audio only and not video. I am now looking for something that works the opposite - casts only the video and not the audio.

• Any update of speaker group volume control?

  First one is some software called "Chromecast Desktop Audio Streamer" that lets you change the volume of individual speakers OR groups from your PC. You can download it here

• Problem: Nest Audio is terrible(?)

  Have a look through the troubleshooting wiki. If all else fails you can manually add the speaker. https://github.com/SamDel/ChromeCast-Desktop-Audio-Streamer/wiki

• Looking for a central music player

  I use a really old Windows laptop (named Old Deller) to cast the audio output (using VB cable as an audio sink so the laptop doesn’t play the audio from its speakers) with the program https://github.com/SamDel/ChromeCast-Desktop-Audio-Streamer to a chrome cast audio home group (5 chromecast audio’s connected to various speaker sets). It works pretty well, they don’t go out of phase, but sometimes the chromecasts lose connection and it’s difficult to get it going again. Old Deller is old af (Vista sticker) and uses its Wifi card which may be some of the issues, or the chromecast audios might be finicky idk. Takes a few minutes to restart the comp and fuck with the app. It plays audio files with MusicBee + its remote app (iTunes remote app had an issue with giant playlists for a long time, idk if Apple ever fixed they seemed not to give a shit about the remote app) and it also uses VoiceMeeter to capture and play the audio from a physical XM Radio. There’s a 5-10 sec delay, which is no problem if just listening to music.
